The 54-year-old former Real Housewives of New York City star shared an Instagram video of herself in a barely there bikini on Thursday, May 29, as she participated in Miami Swim Week. Her clip began with Nelly's 2002 banger 'Hot in Herre' as she covered herself with the door of a portable closet situated next to a dressing rack of clothes. Just seconds into the catchy song, Frankel threw the flaps back, revealing a mostly gold, multicolor, strappy push-up bikini with elements of black and pink. She grabbed a black cowgirl hat with silver embellishments and danced toward the camera, spinning around occasionally while lip-syncing and modeling the design. 'Sports Illustrated is heating up Miami,' the reality television alum captioned her video. According to a second post, her tan heels seen in the clip were by designer Veronica Beard, and appeared to be the Tia Croc-Embossed Sandal in the shade Parchment. The shoe retails for $350. 'It takes a lot of discipline to look like this at any age. 🙌🔥,' one commenter wrote. Katie Austin, who has also appeared in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit and is the daughter of pro fitness coach Denise Austin, added, 'You look unrealllll🔥.' Things seem to be going well in Florida for Frankel after she revealed in April that she was making the Sunshine State her primary residence. "I've been waiting until I got down here to tell you, but I am moving to Florida for personal and professional reasons," she explained in an April 17 TikTok. "Something has arisen that made this the best and healthiest decision for myself and my daughter." The Skinnygirl founder is mom to Bryn, 14, whom she shares with her ex-husband Jason Hoppy. She clarified that she would be keeping her homes in New York City and the Hamptons "because we love New York." However, Florida will now serve as their "primary and permanent" home base. Frankel promised to keep her fans updated with how things continued to go. She then showed off a view of the beach, saying, "This will be my backyard.' Ahead of her announcement, she was photographed on Miami Beach on Feb. 8 as she caught some sun and showed off the results of her diet and exercise in a strapless bikini.

SI cover model Livvy Dunne says she's being stalked in airports by 'middle-aged men'
Sports Illustrated swimsuit model and former LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne said in a TikTok video Friday that she's fearful she is being stalked in airports. The 22-year-old, who has built a large social media following, said that whenever she is at an airport, she encounters what she described as 'at least 10 middle-aged men' who harass her and attempt to get her autograph. "There's a group of autograph seekers who are able to know private flight information," Dunne said in a statement Saturday to NBC News. "I am not the only female athlete who experiences this. It's scary because they simply don't take no for an answer." In her video, Dunne said the men have a stack of 40 pictures of her or her magazines and follow her down TSA PreCheck lines to sign the copies. If she does not, the men become hostile and start to yell, Dunne said. Dunne said the men make a scene and scare other travelers who happen to be nearby. The SI model then shared a video of her crying Friday morning after a red-eye flight, saying a group of men circled her at baggage claim. The harassment occurs when Dunne is attending big events or going on family vacations, she said in the video. In the caption, she wrote that the men know the 'time, place, airport, everything.' 'I know I'm chronically online and I post my life, but I'm talking about like a 20-minute connecting flight through Omaha, Nebraska,' Dunne said. 'They would be waiting there. I'm not making content on a connecting flight.' Dunne also said the same issue happens to another female athlete, track-and-field star Gabby Thomas, who took home gold in the women's 200 meters at the Paris Olympics. Thomas posted a video on TikTok in January describing a similar experience to Dunne's — saying a group of three to six middle-aged men harass her to sign about 40 pictures of herself when she travels through airports. The men would sometimes appear at Thomas' gate, she said, 'which means they have flight tickets and they get past security and all that.' Thomas added that the men will get 'aggressive and hostile' if she refuses to sign the photos. 'I don't know how they're getting my flight information and it's really starting to freak me out,' she said. This article was originally published on

Jack Nicklaus Gets Blunt: 'Ben Hogan Would Knock Your Teeth Out'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Jack Nicklaus did not hold back when expressing his dislike for walk-and-talk interviews during golf rounds. During the second round of the Memorial Tournament, the 18-time major champion addressed the issue and made his opinion perfectly clear. As you may recall, the PGA Tour and its broadcast partners have increased mid-round on-course interviews as a strategy to boost fan engagement. However, they aren't succeeding with Nicklaus. The legendary player explained his point of view in his usual manner, drawing on his extensive experience. "I can't stand that, the interview on the golf course. Let me tell you how I think, how I feel," Nicklaus said, according to Sports Illustrated. "I mean, seriously, here's a guy who's leading the golf tournament, he's just hit the edge of the rough, he's got a very difficult shot on a very difficult hole, and you're talking to him about stuff that totally takes his mind off of what he was doing." Memorial Tournament host Jack Nicklaus speaks with the media prior to the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday 2025 at Muirfield Village Golf Club on May 27, 2025 in Dublin, Ohio. Memorial Tournament host Jack Nicklaus speaks with the media prior to the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday 2025 at Muirfield Village Golf Club on May 27, 2025 in Dublin, had a very long and successful career, Nicklaus did not lack an example from golf history to reinforce his criteria. "How would you think [Ben] Hogan would respond to that question? You would not have any teeth left if you did. He'd hit you right in the face with it." As you might expect, Nicklaus did not choose Ben Hogan as his example lightly. Hogan was known for his intense focus, privacy, and aloofness. He was also a perfectionist who demanded excellence from himself and those around him. However, it should be noted that this was his behavior during tournaments. His close friends and colleagues often described him as loyal, deeply thoughtful, and warm in his own way—just not overly expressive. It's also fair to say that Nicklaus is unhappy with walk-and-talk interviews but not with the golf media in general. In fact, ahead of the Memorial Tournament, he voiced his strong opinions about players who avoid post-round interviews: "I've always felt that you guys [the press] have a job to do -- and gals -- and for you to do your job you need to talk to me," Nicklaus said. "And whether I played well or whether I played poorly, if you still want to talk to me, I'll talk to you. And I always have." Jack Nicklaus is one of the most respected voices in golf, largely due to his extraordinary success as a player. However, he has also made a significant impact in other fields, including event planning and golf course design. More Golf: Scottie Scheffler lurking at Memorial despite poor putting performance

Livvy Dunne, 22, breaks down in tears over ‘middle-aged men' stalking her at airports
Olivia 'Livvy' Dunne fears she is being 'stalked' every time she goes to an airport. The former LSU gymnast opened up on being chased down by a group of 'middle-aged men' for autographs in an emotional video shared with her eight million followers on TikTok Friday. 'I fear that I'm being stalked and I don't know what to do,' Dunne said in the video captioned, 'They know time, place, airport, everything!!!' The 22-year-old made headlines earlier this year for making her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover debut. In the now-viral TikTok video, a visibly emotional Dunne revealed how a group of 'at least 10 middle-aged men' would demand that she sign 'a stack of 40 pictures or magazines.' If she refused to comply, they would run after her and 'yell.' 'They will run after me down the TSA precheck line and yell at me if I don't give them my autograph,' she went on, adding, 'It's insane. They will yell at me and make a scene, and the people around me are scared.' The LSU Tigers women's team alum claimed that her 'stalkers' know every detail about her trips, adding that they would wait for her at airports, whether she is going on a business trip or a family vacation. 'They're waiting there. It's something with the airline, and it's weird,' Dunne said before explaining that men would be waiting for her at odd locations in different cities. In the clip, she included a video of herself filmed earlier in the day, where she was crying in the car following an unsettling encounter with her alleged stalkers. 'Yes I know I'm chronically online and I post my life, but I'm talking about like a 20-minute connecting flight through Omaha, Nebraska, they would be waiting there,' Dunne shared. 'I'm not making content on a connecting flight. I'm talking about the most random cities.'
