Model Hunter McGrady — deemed Sport’s Illustrated “curviest model ever” — has taken to Instagram to share her joy in being featured in the mag’s 2020 Swimsuit Edition, which hit newsstands Tuesday.
“I have been so excited for this shoot to be released,” McGrady, 27, shared. “This trip was life changing and was so special to experience with the most special team. Sports Illustrated has given me so much and created so many incredible opportunities for me and I will forever be grateful. Every time the magazine comes out it is a ‘pinch me’ moment.”
The plus-size model is appearing on the pages of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue for the fourth time, calling her latest experience shooting in Bali “magical.”
“One of my favorite shots from this shoot. Magical place, magical team, magical time,” she wrote beside a picture of herself rocking a sexy black swimsuit.

Days before the the 2020 issue hit the stands, McGrady posted a sneak peek on Instagram, sharing a photo of herself wearing high-waisted bottoms and a bell sleeve bikini top. She also hopes the artful shots will encourage women with similar body types to love the skin they’re in.
“I always know I’m going to get killer, beautiful shots with SI but most importantly I know that the woman who for so long hasn’t seen her body represented will hopefully feel seen, heard, and understood.”
