Penny Lane's social media following has sky-rocketed since the announcement that she would appear in the 2024 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition. It's a big achievement for the model who will feature in the 60th edition of the American sports magazine and will likely be a catalyst to see her become one of the most successful bikini models in the business.

"This has been a dream of mine since I was 15 years old," Lane wrote on Instagram when the SI news was announced. "I saw Sports Illustrated and told my mum one day, 'I will do that, I don't know how, but I will,' and today it's crazy to be able to share this news with you.

And it's not hard to see why Sports Illustrated were desperate to sign up the English model. Her mesmerizing Instagram content is all the evidence one needs. Her feed is full of stunning photos and videos, from jaw-dropping bikini snaps on exotic beaches to fashion shows and shoots.

The most eye-catching and 'liked' content are her bikini snaps... and it's no surprise. Her incredible figure is one of the main reasons SI scouts spotted her and it's helping her to become one of the most recognizable models on Instagram. She currently has over 300,000 followers... a figure that will no doubt continue to rise with her ever-increasing popularity.
