Maye Appeared On Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover
Beauty is hogtied to someone’s age, and Maye is the clear definition of that as he rocked the internet with her looks at the age of 74 for a magazine cover shoot.
In May, the mother of Elon appeared on the 2022 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover. She was in a bright, ruffle-embellished Maygel Coronel one-piece and palm branch earrings.
“I do think it’s going to make women feel more comfortable in their seventies when they swim, as well as women in their twenties and thirties,” Maye said on her photoshoot.
Her daughter Tosca wrote an article titled ‘The Unstoppable Force‘ for the photoshoot. “My whole life, I’ve seen my mom do everything. As a result, I think I’ll always expect her to be able to do everything. Sometimes I wonder whether it’s time I start limiting those expectations, as she gets older. But then I look at her again, still unstoppable, and I think, not yet.”
