Bethenny Frankel just made history by turning her official 2026 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit rookie feature into a dangerously provocative beach shutdown. Taking the tropical coastline of Loreto, Baja California Sur, Mexico by storm, the 55-year-old entrepreneur, podcast powerhouse, and former Real Housewives of New York City star proved that age is nothing but a number when it comes to raw sex appeal. Photographed by James Macari against the turquoise waters, Bethenny put her killer hourglass curves, rock-hard abs, and raw silhouette on full, uninhibited display. Wearing a series of soaked, micro-cut string bikinis, criss-cross designer two-pieces, and sheer knitted swimsuits that clung to every single contour of her body, she left virtually nothing to the imagination under the blazing sun. As the camera captured every angle of her steamy movement and unapologetic confidence, Bethenny delivered a masterclass in high-voltage glamour. Dive into the jaw-dropping photo shoot that has the entire internet buzzing.
