SI Swimsuit model Hannah Jeter was featured in the magazine five years in a row, including her debut in 2013 in Guilin, China. A native of St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, the model has also traveled to the Jersey Shore, Tennessee (where she landed the cover of the ’15 issue), Tahiti and Mexico with the brand.

She entered the industry at the age of 14, after briefly considering pursuing tennis professionally. The 33-year-old was scouted at the beach by a photographer at the time, and has since posed for tons of swimwear campaigns and modeled for major brands including American Eagle, Avon, Bobbi Brown, Ralph Lauren, Victoria’s Secret, Jean Paul Gaultier and Levi’s.

Jeter rocked tons of colorful and unique swimsuit in her most recent SI Swimsuit photo shoot, which took place with visual artist Ruven Afanador in 2017. Following the release of that year’s magazine, she revealed to Entertainment Tonight that she was pregnant at the time and had no idea.

“SI just totally is a game-changer. Once you’re in the issue, fashion people recognize you and commercial people recognize you, so it was truly a gift,” she stated of her experience with the brand.

Today, the model and her husband, former MLB shortstop Derek Jeter, share three daughters, Bella, Story and River, and one son, Kaius. The power couple, who starred in a viral Jeep Grand Wagoner commercial, titled “Eyes Wide Open,” tied the knot in 2016.

Below are seven jaw-dropping pics from Jeter’s SI Swimsuit photo shoot in Mexico.
