She’s making waves.
Brooks Nader, 29, will return to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue for its 2025 edition with a sizzling photoshoot in Bermuda, marking her seventh appearance in the glossy.
Captured by Ben Watts, the blond bombshell — who was one of the 2023 cover models alongside Martha Stewart — glowed in a barely-there metallic gold bikini from Norma Kamali.
“From ‘Dancing with the Stars’ to launching her latest collection for Hudson Jeans, @brooksnader moves with purpose,” Sports Illustrated Swimsuit wrote on Instagram today, sharing the image from her sultry shoot.
She reshared the post, writing, “Year 7!!”
Fellow models and influencers took to the comment section, hyping up the latest celebrity to join the 2025 issue — others include Hunter McGrady, who was shot in Switzerland, and Alix Earle, who was lensed in Jamaica.
“Oh wowzaaaa,” wrote college gymnast and influencer Livvy Dunne. Meanwhile, DJ and content creator Xandra Pohl said, “this bangs.”
Discovered by modeling agency Wilhelmina while enrolled at Tulane University, Nader dreamed of appearing in the magazine, but her agency refused to send her to casting.
However, she proved them wrong when she won the SI Swim Search open casting call in 2019, securing a spot in the publication’s 2020 issue — and later sent them her cover issue.
Her last appearance was for the 2024 “Legends” photoshoot — and has quite a whirlwind year since, dyeing her hair blond, getting divorced from husband Billy Haire, entertaining a fling with Tom Brady and later sparking an on-and-off relationship with her “DWTS” partner Gleb Savchenko.
