Making the most of her trip to Sin City the star also enjoyed a little retail therapy.
Other Sports Illustrated models at the event included Samantha Hoopes and 2019 rookies Haley Kalil and Camille Kostek - winners of the first-ever #SISwimSearch.
It comes after a source close to the pair confirmed the breakup on Saturday - explaining that the 32-year-old wide receiver was unhappy when 2012 Miss Universe pageant winner Olivia posed nude for Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit issue last month.
The confirmation followed rumors of a break-up, sparked when the Miami Dolphins unfollowed his girlfriend onInstagram and deleted all their couple shots.

The pair 'definitely broke up' a source confirmed, telling Us Weekly: 'It had to do with the distance and them barely seeing each other.'
The source added that Amendola also wasn’t happy with Culpo’s nude photos - and that things had been strained between the two since he relocated to Florida two weeks ago.
'He got signed to the Miami Dolphins and Olivia wasn’t going to move there,' the source added.
While her boyfriend might not have approved, Olivia's Sports Illustrated shoot was tastefully done.

Meanwhile after five years with the New England Patriots, earlier this month Amendola agreed to a new two-year deal with the division-rival Miami Dolphins worth $12million, $8.25million of which is guaranteed.
