San Francisco Giants phenom Justin Verlander’s wife, Kate Upton, sizzles in a new share by SI Swim.

In the photo, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue icon kneels in the sand on a Mexican beach, showing off a steamy sideview in a skimpy red one-piece. The photo was taken by famed photog Yu Tsai.

“From 2011 all the way to 2024, Kate Upton has spent over a decade being at the top of her A-game,” the brand captioned its Saturday, December 6 share to X (formerly Twitter). “From her unforgettable debut to her most recent SI Swimsuit feature, and we're taking a look back at her legendary journey over the years.”

“The very moment this iconic Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model debuted with the brand in 2011 with both her body paint photo shoot and her shoot in the Philippines, something shifted, and that something could be best described as society’s minds going from dormant to absolutely blown away by the fact that this blonde bombshell exists,” raves an accompanying article in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.
