On Tuesday, the co-host of CBS Mornings made her debut as one of the cover stars of the 60th Anniversary Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, sharing the spotlight with Chrissy Teigen, Hunter McGrady, and Kate Upton.
During her photo session, King showcased nine elegant one-piece swimsuits, including a white halter-neck style paired with heeled platform sandals.
While gracing the coveted cover wasn’t a lifelong aspiration for the 69-year-old, she expressed to PEOPLE that it stood out as one of the most memorable experiences in her career.
Though she didn’t have specific preferences when selecting her swimsuits, she emphasized her desire for tasteful cleavage, which was aptly fulfilled.
We’ve curated a selection of swimsuits inspired by King’s supportive and flattering choices, including her optic white one-piece, as well as the green and yellow suits from the shoot, available on Amazon. Prices start at just $27.
