Ellie Thumann has been on a roll since her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut in Puerto Rico in 2023. After returning for the 2024 issue, where she posed in Mexico, the 23-year-old now celebrates her three-peat in the 2025 edition, photographed in Bermuda.


The Phoenix native launched her YouTube channel in 2014 and has built a loyal following with her approachable content focused on beauty, fashion, lifestyle and wellness. Inspired by her mother, a former model, Thumann entered the fashion industry at a young age and has since worked with major brands like Bvlgari, Coach, Giorgio Armani, Levi’s, Marc Jacobs and Prada Beauty.


In addition to her growing modeling career, Thumann has been candid about her experiences with anxiety and PCOS, using her platform to promote mental health awareness and self-compassion. Her openness has resonated deeply with fans, encouraging them to embrace their own challenges with strength and confidence.
