The size 16 stunner has been nominated as Rookie of the Year by the mag and showed off her killer curves in a skimpy bikini.
Posing seductively on the beach, Ashley looks jaw-droppingly gorgeous as she tips her head back and flaunts her figure.
She wrote on Instagram: "It's official - I'm a @sportsillustrated swimsuit model!! This is a dream come true.
"Thank you to everyone who stood up for curves - our voices were heard and together we can help me win Rookie of the Year #beautybeyondsize #islay."
Ashley became an icon for size "sexy" in 2015 and it looks like she's set to turn up the heat even further this year.
Last month she posed up a storm in her new lingerie collection for Addition Elle.
The 28-year-old looked commanding and confident in the gorgeous campaign as she was pictured on board a luxury private jet with a few suit-clad hunks.
Since becoming a well known face, Ashley has been vocal about positive body-image and insists that when it comes to feeling and looking good size is just a number.
“I always say, if a size 12 jean isn’t fitting, buy a 14,” she recently told Yahoo.com.
“Who cares about the number that’s inside your jeans? If clothes are making you feel bad about your body, go ahead and buy a bigger size.”
She continued: “It really does help your confidence because you don’t even have to think about it. You just think: ‘Wow these jeans look really good on me!’”
Ashley burst into the spotlight with her ground-breaking appearance on Sports Illustrated last year and recently admitted she loved the reaction to her figure.
Speaking on ABC 20/20's The Year, she said: "To me, it made a huge impact because you can see my full body.
"I think the beauty in that I'm just such a full-figured woman, people were just like, 'hubba hubba.'"
When referring to her weight, she confidently continued: "I'm not afraid to talk about it.
"Love it or get over it."
