Hilary Duff Rocks a Bikini on the 2026 SI Swimsuit Cover

Hilary Duff made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut in a stunning swimsuit.

The 38-year-old star showcased her curves in an elegant off-white OYE Swimwear one-piece, featuring a plunging neckline, halter straps, and a cheeky back on the cover of SI Swimsuit’s 2026 issue, hitting newsstands starting Thursday, May 14, and nationwide on May 26.

Photographed by Kat Irlin in South Caicos, Turks and Caicos, Duff sported a soft makeup look with dewy skin, well-groomed eyebrows, and bronzed cheeks. Her blonde hair was styled in loose, beachy waves.

In another striking shot, Duff wore a semi-sheer white Skims tee that revealed her black Riot Swim bikini top, gazing dramatically out of a window while leaning against her arms.

She turned up the heat in a vibrant red Vitamin A one-piece, featuring a square neckline and delicate spaghetti straps that slipped off her shoulder. The singer smiled brightly for the camera while posing on the beach, allowing her hair to flow with the breeze.

Showing just the right amount of cleavage, she donned a black OYE Swimwear design with a crisscross neckline and a cutout over her chest.

Duff’s sizzling looks continued with a black Vitamin A ensemble that showcased a triangle bikini top and abdominal cutouts. The actress highlighted her toned physique in a white OYE Swimwear set, featuring a crop top and high-waisted bottoms.

In a promotional video, Duff was seen showcasing her looks on the beach with the caption, “HILARY DUFF,” followed by “SI SWIMSUIT 2026 COVER MODEL.”
