Justin Verlander's wife, Kate Upton, was featured on the Sports Illustrated swimsuit magazine cover for their 60th-year special edition in 2024. Since then, the supermodel has been headlining various SI events across America.
She was spotted in a beautiful translucent tan bodycon dress for the Sports Illustrated event in Miami on Monday.
In the first image, Kate Upton can be seen rocking the dress alongside author Maye Musk and fellow SI swimsuit model Lily Aldridge. She is getting clicked with celebrity photographer Yu Tsai at the SI event in Miami in the other pictures from the event.
Upton showcased how she is her husband's biggest supporter by sitting behind the home plate seats and cheering him on as he started for the Houston Astros against the Yankees in Yankee Stadium on May 7th, 2024.
The couple got married in 2017, shortly after Verlander won his maiden World Series title with the Astros, and they share an adorable daughter named Genevieve, who was born in November 2018.
Upton has been associated with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit magazine for more than a decade now and the supermodel has featured on the cover more than four times during that period. She was as surprised as everyone else after headlining the cover for their 60th-anniversary edition.
Kate Upton loves the feeling of being featured on the cover of SI magazine
In an exclusive interview with CBS shortly after the news that she was getting featured on the 60th-anniversary edition of the SI swimsuit magazine cover, Kate Upton revealed her feelings, saying:
"Yes, it never gets old and they still find a way to surprise me because I've never seen it you guys, just showed it to you for the first time."
She showered praise on the swimsuit issue voicing how it boosts a model's self-confidence and helps them redefine the way they look. She said:
"You have your voice, matters, and you can empower yourself by being confident. You can be everything: smart, beautiful. Yes, you can be confident like everybody."
