Three-time SI Swimsuit cover star Kate Upton made her debut with the magazine in 2011 when she won Rookie of the Year. The supermodel returned to the issue for six separate years. She landed three covers during her time with SI Swimsuit—her first one in 2012 after being photographed in Sydney/Cairns Australia and Apalachicola, Fla., her second from her iconic Antarctica shoot the following year, and her third in Fiji in 2017.

The 30-year-old now lives with her husband, MLB star Justin Verlander, and their daughter, Genevieve.

Below are 11 stunning photos from her debut SI Swimsuit shoot with Raphael Mazzucco in the Phillippines.
