Kathy Leutner is a prominent model who gained widespread attention after being considered for a feature in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition in 2011. Throughout her career, she has collaborated with well-known fashion brands, including Naked & Famous and Abercrombie & Fitch.

Early Life
Born on December 13, 1987, Kathy Leutner grew up in Chantilly, Virginia, alongside her sister Jennifer Ann Dybsky. Her parents, John and Judith Leutner, always supported her ambitions. From a young age, Kathy showed a keen interest in sports and modeling. At 18, she was discovered by a modeling scout in a store near her hometown. She began dating Sidney Crosby in 2008, marking the start of a private yet enduring relationship.
Kathy attended Chantilly High School but chose to pursue her modeling dreams instead of attending college. With her family’s encouragement, she fully committed to building a career in the fashion industry.
Career Highlights
Leutner’s modeling journey began later than many of her peers, officially starting when she was scouted at 18. Initially, finding consistent work was challenging as she appeared mainly in advertisements and publications. However, her dedication and talent soon paid off when she secured a feature in Fitness magazine, where her athletic background and toned physique made her an ideal fit.
Her breakthrough came in 2011 when she appeared in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. Over time, she worked with numerous brands, including major fashion lines such as Abercrombie & Fitch. Despite her success, Kathy has chosen to stay away from the spotlight, maintaining a minimal presence on social media. She operates a non-verified Twitter account (@kathyleutner) with over 800 followers but avoids platforms like Instagram and Facebook.
