Hilary Duff wows in white on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue 2026 cover

It’s Hilary, in the buff.

On Tuesday, Hilary Duff was announced as one of four cover stars of the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

She made a splash in a plunging white one-piece Oye swimsuit, lensed by Kat Irlin in South Caicos.

The singer, 38, wore her blond hair in waves with bronzed Charlotte Tilbury makeup.

While Duff is making her debut in the splashy magazine, it isn’t the first time she’s posed without clothing; In 2022, she stripped down for Women’s Health Magazine, wearing nothing but her multiple tattoos.

“I’m proud of my body. I’m proud that it’s produced three children for me. I’ve gotten to a place of being peaceful with the changes my body has gone through,” she said at the time. She has since welcomed a third daughter, Townes, in 2024 with husband Matthew Koma. “I also want people to know a makeup artist was there putting glow all over my body and someone put me in the most flattering position.”

It’s already been a blockbuster year for the former Disney Channel star.

Also covering the magazine are Alix Earle, Tiffany Haddish and Nicole Williams English, following in the footsteps of the 2025 cover stars: Salma Hayek,  Livvy Dunne, Jordan Chiles and model Lauren Chan.

Within the pages of the highly anticipated glossy this year are Bethenny Frankel, Hannah Berner, “Love Island USA” star Olandria Carthen, Alix Earle and more.

Duff is staging her comeback as a pop star, releasing her sixth studio album, “Luck … Or Something” in January 2026 — her first in more than a decade — after returning to music in late 2025 with the singles “Mature” and “Roommates.”

“I had my husband as producer and I made the music I wanted to make,” Duff told Sports Illustrated. “It represents who I am now, which is complicated and mature, but dressed in sequins.”

The star will kick off her world tour next month, and if her on-stage performance looks are any indication, fans can expect Duff to turn up the heat.
