From 2013 to 2017, Hannah Jeter appeared in all 5 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues and was the 2015 cover model. She and Derek Jeter were dating at the time and made the headlines together regularly. But in a 2016 interview, she revealed how making the cover of the magazine changed her life. Hannah started getting invited to events and said that she was also taken more seriously in terms of her career.
During the interview, she said, “Oh my God, it just changed it in so many ways. From the littlest things, from being invited to events and being taken seriously in the fashion world to hosting a TV show. It just kind of, it’s a wild-wild ride, but it’s been a blast, so, and to be asked back again.” Hannah further said, “I said this in one of the videos on SI.com, and I was like Oh my God, I can’t believe I said that. But it’s so true. Because, every year you wait for a callback, I mean it’s not a guarantee, that once you’re in the issue it doesn’t mean you get to come back. So for me, I was like yes! This means I get to be in it another year.”
