Hailee Steinfeld has fans eagerly awaiting the first photo of her newborn child, but that hasn’t stopped them from biding their time with throwback content. The 29-year-old actress, who welcomed her first child last month, was featured on an X feed this week, with the photos showing her sunbathing in a red bikini while in Mexico. Enjoying a sun-soaked break while flaunting her stunning figure, Hailee sizzled in her teeny, low-cut swimsuit, and for one, it was a “damn” situation. The Hawkeye star was, however, criticized by some, who claimed that her bikini was “unflattering.” Ahead, see the photos, plus Hailee’s hottest shots.

Hailee Steinfeld Stuns In Plunging Red Bikini

Scroll for the photos. Enjoying a lounger-and-terrace setting, Hailee made fans sweat in a bold red bikini with cheeky thong bottoms. Showing off her porcelain skin while bringing the heat with her curves, the Hollywood star was photographed near mosaic-tiled outdoor pool, where she soaked up the rays and wore a sun hat.

Flaunting her long, toned legs and killer hips, Hailee wore tight, mid-rise bottoms with stringy waistbands, with her sporty, low-cut bralette tastefully flashing her cleavage. While some images showed the mom of one basking in the sun, others showed her heading out onto the terrace, carrying her hat and stepping into the sunlight.

The Los Cabos photos date back to 2023, when Hailee and husband Josh Allen enjoyed a romantic Mexico break. The destination remains a celebrity hotspot and has attracted stars including sitcom star Jennifer Aniston, SKIMS founder Kim Kardashian, and model Kaia Gerber.

Very Cheeky G-String Bikini

Fans went wild. “Damn, she looks good,” with others sending Hailee Steinfeld fire and heart emoji. That said, some fans seemed in the mood to pick the photos apart. One complained that Hailee needs to “tan,” with another writing:

“When hot women wear ugly AF swimsuits, you know a female friend told her how hot/flattering it looked at the store.” While one fan thought that Hailee’s swimsuit didn’t flatter her, another had no complaints as they said: “Absolutely stunning, she has got the real confidence in her.” In this selfie, Hailee showed even more skin, snapping a butt-baring selfie in a teeny bikini formed of red G-string briefs and a skimpy blue top. Folding one leg, she threw out the peace sign while pouting poolside and wearing shades. Talk right now is all about Hailee’s baby, though.

She’s Just Had A Baby!

Hailee Steinfeld confirmed that her first child had safely arrived on April 2. However, she has yet to share any photos of her bundle of joy. She and her athlete husband, Josh, announced their pregnancy in December 2025 via a low-key Substack letter, with the above Golden Globes photos making headlines in January as Hailee showed off her baby bump.

Hailee’s fans are likely waiting for that Instagram announcement. They last got a baby bump photo in February as Hailee showed off her pregnant belly from her kitchen while spending time with Josh.
