Ilona Maher showed off her Olympic bronze medal while posing on the digital September issue of ‘Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’
The Olympian, 28, graced Us with her steamy photoshoot while appearing on SI Swimsuit’s digital September issue, empowered by Maybelline, on Wednesday, August 28. Photographed by Ben Watts on Fire Island, New York, Maher showed off her figure in a number of sexy bikinis — and even posed topless with her bronze medal.
She also modeled a cheeky white USA one piece from Ralph Lauren, equipped with a plunging back and scoop neck, and a white Mare Perpetua two-piece featuring thin straps, cinched cups and knotted bottoms. In her cover story, Maher opened up about how rugby taught her to love her body. “I was always like, you know, called masculine or whatever. But I never felt that way,” she said. “But I don't think you're going to bully the girl who could probably beat you up in a rage. I love that showed me what I can do..” Maher continued, “It showed me how capable my body is and it's not just like a tool to be looked at and objectified.
