Only close people knew about the girl’s pregnancy. When the belly was already noticeable, Anna simply stopped appearing on social events, and began to lead a quiet, secluded lifestyle. The other day, Iglesias and Kournikova posted the first pictures of their children on their microblogs. The couple had a son and daughter. They named the boy Nicholas, and the girl Lucy.

Other details were shared with reporters. Enrique's mother, Isabel Preysler, said Anna felt great during her pregnancy. “Anya didn’t need to rest much or limit her movement. She continued her normal lifestyle,” said the new grandmother.

“They didn't hide anything. Anna is now more at home than in public, so no one knew about her pregnancy,” said the mother of the famous singer.

Kournikova and Iglesias spent a long time and painstakingly preparing for the birth of their children. It is known that in their country house was held major renovation worth more than half a million dollars.

Recently information appeared on the Internet that she carried and gave birth to twins surrogate mother. The public argues for these assumptions by saying that no one saw Anna pregnant.

The girl actively published fresh photos and videos on her Instagram; they did not show the slightest change in the athlete’s figure. Anna and Enrique do not comment on these assumptions.

The couple has been together for 10 years, but the marriage has not yet been officially registered. Previously, in interviews, Enrique Iglesias was often asked whether he would soon lead his beloved down the aisle. The performer noted that his relationship with Anna was no different from the relationship of married people, except that there was no stamp in the passport.

“When our romance began, we were so young. But many years have passed and we are still together. We live like an ordinary married couple, quarrel, discuss plans for tomorrow and what will be for lunch,” said the famous former tennis player. According to Anna, between her and Enrique there is an attraction given from above. And the birth of children is a logical development of their relationship.

“If you date a person for so long, you are already mentally married to him,” said the world-famous musician. Perhaps now, after the birth of heirs, his opinion will change, and the couple will still officially register the marriage?

Former Russian tennis player Anna Kournikova and the world-famous Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias became parents in the 17th year of their relationship: the couple had twins - a boy and a girl.

The stars managed to hide Anna's pregnancy until the children were born.

According to TMZ magazine, the happy event took place on December 16 in Miami, where the lovers have lived since the very beginning of their romance. The boy was named Nicholas, and the girl was named Lucy.

The new parents themselves remain silent for now and do not in any way confirm the news of a joyful change in their lives, only posting happy photos from a boat trip.

By the way, the images turned out to be very similar and were published around the same time; the lovers wanted to say something to each other.

Both Anna and her chosen one pose against the backdrop of the water surface, serenely spending time on a boat near the city.

Now it seems that one could have guessed about the upcoming event: Kournikova has sharply reduced the number of her appearances in public, and in in social networks I mostly posted old photographs (from childhood and early career), or pictures of my pets.

Even the most nosy paparazzi could not get fresh images of the former athlete: the last such photo was dated November 2016.

Kournikova spent almost all her time in the huge mansion that the couple built in 2013 in the most prestigious area of ​​​​the Miami coast.

You can only get there by private boat, so it is not surprising that journalists were unable to uncover the secret of the former tennis player’s reclusiveness for so long.

The last clue for the couple's most devoted fans could be that Anna and Enrique, for an unknown reason, missed the wedding of the singer's half-sister Ana Boyer with tennis player Fernando Verdasco, which took place on December 7, 2017.

“Of course, Enrique was invited. He was going to come, but then he was forced to refuse for a reason that I understood,”

— Boyer said then in an interview with Hola magazine.

It is curious that Kournikova and Iglesias stated back in 2016 that they were absolutely not ready to be parents.

“Yes, I would like to become a mother, but... in ten years.

We both really think so. Perhaps because we still have time, we are young enough, this issue is not burning yet,” the former athlete assured.

In addition, the couple never legalized their relationship, although since 2010 Anna has been wearing Golden ring with a diamond of amazing size.

“I don't believe you need a piece of paper to show that you love someone. Anna is the love of my life.

Now I can say this with one hundred percent confidence,” the singer repeated, explaining the absence of a stamp in the passport.

Moreover, in 2014, Iglesias amazed his fans during a concert with the statement that he had already been “divorced for three days.” In the end, these words turned out to be nothing more than a joke, but they made many fans seriously worried.

Now, apparently, fans don’t have to worry about the union of their idols. Let us remind you that

the stars have been in a relationship since 2001, when Anna took part in the filming of Iglesias’s video for the song Escape.

At that time, the tennis player was only 20 years old, and she was credited with falling in love with either hockey player Pavel Bure or tennis player Mark Philippusis, but there was no confirmation of these rumors.

While the public was discussing her attractive appearance, Anna conquered athletic heights.

Before meeting Iglesias, she managed to become the youngest participant Olympic Games in the history of Russia in all sports, performing at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta at the age of 15 years and 47 days.

Prior to this, Kournikova achieved stunning success at the junior level, winning one of the most prestigious tournaments for young tennis players, the Orange Bowl, and then becoming the champion International Federation tennis (ITF). It’s not hard to guess that she was number one in the junior rankings.

In 1996, Anna was recognized best newcomer WTA, and already in 1997 she reached the semi-finals of Wimbledon. Soon the Russian woman began performing in doubles with the Swiss Martina Hingis, which brought her major achievements in her career.

Together, the girls twice won one of the Grand Slam tournaments - the Australian Open - and the final WTA tournament, which allowed them to take first place in the ranking among pairs.

However, a back injury interrupted the rapid development of Kournikova’s career and forced her to stop performing in 2003.

At that time, the tennis player had already been in a relationship with Iglesias for two years, who, before meeting her, by his own admission, “couldn’t find a girl with whom he would stay for more than a week.”

The “Spanish Nightingale” has been with Kournikova for 16 years now, and it seems that all the fun is just beginning.

You can find other news and materials on the chronicles, as well as in the sports department groups on social networks

One of the most talked about couples of the last decade - Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias and Russian tennis player Anna Kournikova - after 16 years of relationship, pleased fans with great news: a week ago in Miami, secretly from everyone, Kournikova gave birth to twins for the singer.

The history of the Russian beauty’s relationship with the son of “that same Iglesias” began in 2001, when Anna arrived in Spain to film the “Escape” video. By that time, it became clear that the tennis player’s career was coming to an end, but Kournikova’s external data allowed her to enter into lucrative advertising contracts.

Their first meeting could be their last

The luxurious, long-legged blonde with full lips, perfect skin and green eyes smitten the sophisticated Enrique, whose embraces included many famous heartthrobs, including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Alicia Machado and Christina Aguilera. The singer recalls that at the first meeting he was simply stunned by the beauty of the girl, but behaved like a boy.

According to the plot of the video, Iglesias was supposed to kiss Anna. But out of a surge of feelings, he declared in the presence of the entire film crew that he was not going to do this, because he noticed that the girl had a upper lip a pimple is a sign of a cold.
Filming stalled for a couple of hours. Anya ran away from the site and in anger almost destroyed the dressing room, cursing the Spanish impudence for all it was worth. But the signed contract forced the girl to pull herself together and return.

A little later, Iglesias admitted: “I deliberately lied because I simply didn’t know how to attract her attention. She was so proud, beautiful and inaccessible, so I blurted out the first thing that came to mind.”
And our impudent person was right. Soon they were kissing - both on the stage where Iglesias’s hero sang, and in the interior of his car, and even on the washbasin in the restroom.
It was then that the guy realized that he had found the one with whom he wanted to spend his whole life.

The drama of the Iglesias family

Throughout his career, the hot young Spaniard dreamed of getting tens of thousands of women into bed, but few people know how difficult his relationship with the fair sex was.
The reason is the painful separation of the parents due to the constant betrayals of the father, Julio Iglesias. The famous singer was promiscuous, which caused a persistent feeling of contradiction in his son - to do everything just not to be like Iglesias Sr.

"Enrique Iglesias - the last star virgin"

Enrique loved nothing more than teasing the overly curious paparazzi. He enjoyed inventing non-existent facts about his personal life. One day, the singer almost brought the journalist to a nervous tic, hinting to her that after several years of relationship with Kournikova, he was still a virgin. But Anna was not his first woman!

The next day, Iglesias had to regret his careless words, when headlines about the artist's shocking purity appeared on the front pages of newspapers. However, even here the singer managed to emerge victorious: at the press conference he deftly answered awkward questions and in the end he misled journalists by hinting at a possible marriage between him and Anna.
And a little later, the paparazzi completely lost sleep when ring finger tennis player got a ring that looked like an engagement ring. Since then, the public has watched their romance like a Mexican TV series: will they get married or separate?

Iglesias's secret connections

Fans' suspicions about the lovers' quarrel were indeed justified. Kournikova had to go through a difficult time since scandalous photographs of Enrique and a girl sitting on his lap appeared in a British publication. She turned out to be actress Estella Warren, who, by the way, looked like Anna like a sister.

Kournikova had to use all her will to go to the airport and meet Iglesias from London without a scandal. In the arrival hall, the girl almost went blind from dozens of video and photo cameras with flashes aimed at her. Who knows what the poor guy had to go through at that moment, but the paparazzi failed to capture anything interesting. The girl, as usual, waved to the guy, kissed him on the cheek and led him to the car.

At home, a storm of female jealousy and anger hit Enrique. He barely justified himself, explaining to his beloved that he had nothing in common with the actress, and then they drank a little in the bar, and he himself did not notice how Estella ended up on his lap. It was probably only then that Anna realized how much she was afraid of losing her loved one.

The Russian turned out to be an ideal life partner

No wonder they say: Russian girls - best wives. Anya became a reliable support, friend and lover for Enrique. She never demanded expensive gifts, did not rush to fashionable parties and red carpets, did not create scandals and did not go on tour after the singer.
Being a VIP person herself, the girl avoids interviews about her personal life and, with all Slavic care and devotion, provides for her beloved home comfort and comfort. The singer is ready to sell his soul to the devil for Anya’s borscht and even took several master classes from her on its preparation.

Anna's sports career came quite quickly and easily: at the age of 14 she became a professional tennis player, and at 16 she reached the semi-finals of the Grand Slam Cup.

At all competitions with Kournikova’s participation, the male part of the audience, with bated breath, listened to the breathtaking screams of the athlete and admired her tanned legs. At the end sports career the girl successfully realized herself in advertising famous brands: Adidas, Omega, Yonex and others.

She never received an official marriage proposal.

The only thing Anya could not give Iglesias for a long time was a child, although she knew how much he dreamed of an heir. He often confessed to her that he wanted to be a father, but he could not understand that for a girl having a baby outside of marriage is taboo. The reluctance of her beloved to marry became a quiet, insoluble pain for her.

Kournikova had her own reasons for this: even before Enrique, she had two romances in her youth - with Russian NHL stars Pavel Bure and Sergei Fedorov. The men showered the girl with jewelry and apartments, but neither the failed engagement with the first gentleman nor the short-term marriage with the second brought the girl family happiness.

As a result, Kournikova set a condition for Iglesiam - either marriage or no children. The status of a single mother did not suit her at all.
This caused a major quarrel, after which the singer left Miami for Spain and plunged headlong into work. Soon the lovers reconciled and compromised, but they failed to conceive a child.
After dozens of medical examinations, the girl was close to despair. However, after many attempts, she still managed to get pregnant. How the marriage issue was resolved is unknown. Journalists make many guesses, including - secret wedding lovers.

One thing is clear: the couple is now happily raising two children - Lucy and Nicholas. We hope that soon we will learn new details from the lives of these bright and passionate people!
