Brittany Mahomes Stuns in Red Bikini for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2026

Brittany Mahomes and Normani star on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2026 digital covers wearing confident bikini looks that redefine WAG style.

Sports Illustrated is rewriting the idea of what a WAG looks like in 2026, and Brittany Mahomes is right at the center of it. The Kansas City Current co owner and wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has been named one of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit digital cover stars for February 2026, and her look is impossible to miss.

Shot on Captiva Island in Florida, Brittany stepped in front of the camera wearing a bold Chiefs red bikini that felt personal, confident, and intentional. The two piece showed off her athletic frame with a clean triangle top and high cut bottoms that highlighted her waist and legs without feeling over styled. The color choice felt like a subtle nod to Kansas City, but the energy was all her own. Hair worn loose and beach ready, makeup stayed minimal, letting her natural glow and strength lead the moment.

This marks Brittany’s return to the brand after making her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut as a rookie in 2024. Now a mother of three and a former professional soccer player, she represents a different kind of swimsuit confidence. One rooted in real life, post partum honesty, and pride in taking care of her body on her own terms.

Joining Brittany on their own individual covers are Christen Goff, Haley Cavinder, Ronika Love, Claire Kittle, and Normani. Each woman brings her own story and style to the issue, all photographed at South Seas resort in the Fort Myers area.

Normani’s cover delivers a sleek, fashion forward take on swimwear. The singer wore a barely there bikini that leaned more editorial than sporty, with clean lines and a confident stance that felt effortless. Her look was polished but relaxed, matching her calm approach to redefining what the WAG label means. Engaged to Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf, Normani made it clear she sees the role as one of support without losing her own identity.

Ronika Love, a professional volleyball player and wife of Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love, also brought a strong athletic presence to her shoot. Her bikini look emphasized strength over softness, paired with a grounded confidence that reflected her own career in sports. Recently announcing her pregnancy, Ronika continues to push back on the idea that women beside athletes exist only as background figures.

The February 2026 digital issue focuses on six women who are reshaping the meaning of the word WAG simply by being themselves. Sports Illustrated describes them as entrepreneurs, athletes, creatives, and leaders whose influence extends far beyond the sidelines.

The message is clear. These women are not accessories to fame. They are building brands, supporting causes, raising families, and showing up confidently in their own skin. And in this case, doing it in bikinis that feel powerful rather than performative.
