Super star: As well as the group shot, the three women each got their own cover for the publication, with Olivia, 28, posing for hers in a teeny white bikini and a clear jacket 
Strike a pose: Influencer Jasmine, 29, who is known as Golden Barbie on Instagram, looked stunning in a white high-waisted bikini as she posed for her cover on a beach in Bali 
Seasoned expert: Kate, 27, made her debut in the publication back in 2013, when she was named Rookie of the Year, and she has since made numerous appearances in SI Swimsuit
Jasmine, 29, can be seen taking center stage in between the other two women, wearing a teeny black bikini and a selection of chunky gold necklaces. 
Meanwhile Olivia, 28, poses to one side of her, looking every inch the fashionista in a black high-cut swimsuit, gold hoop earrings and a gold chain belt. 
Kate, 27, who is the most seasoned SI Swimsuit alum, having first posed for the publication in 2013, rounds out the trio, posing alongside her co-cover stars in a black and gold bikini. 
Speaking about the decision to feature three women on the cover of this year's issue, editor MJ Day told DailyMail.com in a statement that the models were all chosen because of their individuality and unique achievements - as well as their shared ambitions and goals.  
'These three women that make up the 2020 cover are inherently unique in many ways, but a solidarity exists among them in terms of their ambitions, goals and what they stand for,' she said. 
'These women are limitless, unstoppable and collectively represent the next wave of moguls to come out of the franchise.'  
MJ also praised Olivia, Kate, and Jasmine for their individual successes, complimenting each woman on her personal achievements - both within the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit franchise and beyond. 
'Jasmine has single-handedly built an amazing career for herself with sheer determination and focus, and is now using her well-established social media platforms to advocate for social justice,' she said. 
'Olivia is a multi-faceted businesswoman who most recently created MoreThanAMask, a line of fashion masks created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, with 100% of the proceeds being donated to Feeding America. 
'This year marks Kate's eighth appearance in the issue. Beyond her extensive work as an advocate for mental health and wellness, she has played a pivotal role as a creative and business-savvy collaborator for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit brand.'

Super star: Model Olivia made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut in 2018, when she posed nude in a shoot 
Achievement: Editor MJ Day praised Olivia for being a 'multi-faceted businesswoman'
Triumphant return: Influencer Jasmine won Rookie of the Year in 2019, which catapulted her to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit fame 
Golden girl: Jasmine stayed true to her Golden Barbie Instagram handle by posing in a gilt bikini top while lounging on the beach 
Workin' it: Kate has posed for the magazine on a number of occasions, and has become a permanent fixture in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit over the past few years 
Working hard: MJ praised Kate's 'extensive work as an advocate for mental health and wellness', while also highlighting the 'pivotal role' she plays within the SI Swimsuit family 
The trio's cover shoot took place in Bali back in November, before the world was rocked by the coronavirus pandemic, and the powerful Black Lives Matter protests - and MJ noted that the publication has taken time over the past few months to 'pause and listen', while vowing to continue to 'evolve and learn'. 
'When we wrapped our final shoot on March 5, we had no idea of the magnitude of the unprecedented times that lay ahead,' MJ said. 
'Like many brands we have paused, listened and will continue to evolve and learn. Now more than ever it's extremely important to feel a part of a community, to rally behind each other and to support those around you who are trying to create impactful change.'
Speaking to GMA on Monday morning, the three cover stars added that they are determined to continue spreading a message of inclusivity.
'I feel like working with Sports Illustrated Swim has really given me more of a voice,' Jasmine said, while Olivia added: 'Actions speak louder than words. All you can do is look at the girls, the women who have been so successful, who have created, not only paths and careers to follow for other women, but so much opportunity.'   
Jasmine also took the chance to urge people to use this time at home to focus on what really matters in their lives - specifically those in it who are most important. 
'It's a time for all of us to pause and take the time to realize that, even with COVID going on, with all the protesting going on, we're able to take that moment in our life to really pause and check on the others in our life that really matter,' she said. 
Because of the pandemic, this year's cover reveal took a slightly different format, with MJ sharing the exciting news with each of the women over video conference - leaving all three cover stars speechless in shock, while Jasmine admitted she actually fell over in surprise.  
'I was like oh my god, that's the cover? I initially dropped to the floor, I thought it was crazy,' Jasmine shared. 
'I cut out a coffee table book and I put my head on the bodies... I have wanted this for my entire life,' Olivia added.

Valentina appeared on [ ] on Friday to announce the news while sharing how much the opportunity means to her and the LGBTQ+ community as a whole.

'Our goal in selecting who we feature in the SI Swimsuit Issue is centered around identifying some of the most inspiring, interesting and multi-dimensional women that we can find,' she said. 
'Valentina has been on our radar for some time now and when we finally met face to face it became apparent that besides her obvious beauty, she is an impassioned activist, a true pioneer for the LGBT+ community and just simply embodies the well-rounded woman we are proud to have represent SI Swimsuit across our platforms,' she continued. 
'We are deeply moved that Valentina was willing to put her trust in us and we didn't think twice about wanting to amplify her voice, her message and give her a platform to advocate from on behalf of her personal aspirations and the trans community.
