Kate Upton stunned fans in her eye-popping swimsuit three years ago, when an X repost reminded everyone of her killer curves. The Sports Illustrated Swim star, 32, showed off her iconic silhouette in a beach-set shoot back in May 2022, looking red-hot in her teeny two-piece while reminding everyone why she's in the modeling business. Placing one hand on her hip while soaking up rays, Kate flaunted her bombshell body in a black bikini, and for one fan, this girl has "good structure." Kate, who was initially told she was too fat to become a model, has since risen to become one of her generation's biggest swimsuit icons. Ahead, see the photo, plus Kate's hottest shots.

Rocking a bra-like top with molded cups, the wife to former athlete Justin Verlander flashed her sensational chest, with her bikini top's slight glitter embellishments adding a little pizzazz.

Kate wore low-rise briefs also bearing the silvery sparkle detailing, flaunting her killer hips and toned legs while shooting the camera a direct gaze. Rocking bouncy blonde curls, Kate added a matte makeup layer, wearing bronzer and blush as she showed off her signature mole. The mom of one posed with her hand on a white chair, quickly attracting comments.
"Fantastic figure," one fan said, with another calling Kate Upton "so beautiful." A third, meanwhile, noted that the Vosa Spirits partner has "good structure." Kate is known for being blessed from above, but one look at her training regimen proves this is a girl who puts in the effort.

Kate Upton made May 2024 headlines for a triumphant return to SI Swim, landing herself yet another cover as the magazine marked its 60th anniversary. Following her high-profile shoot, Kate's trainer Ben Bruno opened up to the magazine, revealing how Kate got into tip-top shape for her cover.
"Training-wise, she pushes herself very hard, but she’s also great about listening to her body and not overdoing it. She likes to lift heavy weights (hates anything over 6 reps haha) and that’s what we do most of the time, but we also do some cardio 2-3 times a week, either after strength workouts or on separate days. The cardio is a mix of higher intensity intervals and lower intensity steady state work," he said.
