Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias have never put their personal lives on public display. That is why some fans of the tennis player and singer even suspected that they had long and secretly parted. However, on December 18, it became known that everything was more than wonderful with them: according to Western media reports, Anna gave her beloved a son and a daughter. On this occasion, the site decided to remind you, dear readers, of the love story of a pretty Russian woman and a temperamental Spaniard.
The news that 36-year-old Anna Kournikova gave birth to twins was a real shock for her fans. For all nine months, the former first racket of the world carefully, and, I must say, quite from the public. The secret was also kept by her lover, 42-year-old singer Enrique Iglesias, who generally does not like to communicate with journalists on the topic of his personal life.
While the whole world is discussing such unexpected, but good news, we decided to recall how the relationship of one of the brightest couples of the 2000s developed.
Love at first sight
Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova met in 2001 under very banal circumstances for a celebrity: a 20-year-old Russian tennis player, who at that time was almost the most popular athlete in the West, was offered to star in a clip of a 26-year-old sweet-voiced singer. In the video for the song Escape, a blonde with a chiseled figure played the role of the Spanish macho's lover - and she got used to the image very deeply.
Those present at film set noticed that sparks instantly ran between Anna and Enrique and all this “chemistry” was eventually immortalized in a popular video.
“Before that, I did not know Anna, but I am her big fan. I am sure that any guy would want to talk to her, and I was no exception. She is very beautiful, talented, and just plays tennis very well. I have no doubt that she will look great in the frame, ”Enrique shared with MTV during the filming of his video.
Particularly convincing was the hot scene of Iglesias and Kournikova in the bathroom. “It’s not at all necessary to be an actor so that kisses with Anya look natural,” the artist then joked.
Shortly after the filming of the video clip was completed, it became known that purely business relationship athletes and the singer turned into romantic ones. Until 2002, they hid from the public that they were dating. The secret only became clear when Enrique brought his girlfriend to the MTV Video Awards Music Awards.
After this publication, Kournikova and Iglesias became one of the most talked about couples. The ubiquitous paparazzi tracked their every move, and the fans were looking forward to when the singer puts the ring on the finger of his beloved. In 2004, rumors about the engagement in the press were exaggerated especially actively. Celebrity fans were blown away when they noticed that Anna was wearing a huge pink diamond ring on her ring finger. Later, journalists reported that the lovers allegedly played secret wedding in the Mexican resort of Puerto Vallarta. However, they official representatives denied this information.
There will be no wedding!
The ring, suspiciously similar to the engagement ring, Kournikova eventually took off, but replaced it with another, simpler one. At some point, the couple was completely tired of the fact that those around them were actively trying to marry them. In order for fans and journalists to lag behind Enrique and Anna, the singer deliberately misled the public. The performer of the hit Hero in 2007 told the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that he actually married a long time ago a tennis player who completed professional career in 2003, but recently divorced her.
"We broke up. I'm lonely again. But there is nothing wrong with that. Loneliness does not scare me, ”the singer said then.
However, a few days later, a close friend of the couple told reporters that the musician was just joking. In addition, the official introduced Iglesias Jr. confirmed that Enrique is still happy in his relationship with Anna.
Later it became clear that Anna herself opposed the wedding. The athlete told reporters that she never planned to become married woman. The blonde at that time was completely satisfied with the relationship with the chosen one without the notorious stamp in the passport. A few days later, Iglesias, who does not like the press, jokingly announced that he had repeatedly proposed to his beloved, but she seemed to deliberately ignore them.
In 2011, the tennis star explained why, unlike most of the fair sex, she is not at all attracted to marriage. “Official marriage is not important to me. I am in a happy relationship - and this is the most important thing. I believe that a man and a woman can just be devoted to each other,” Kournikova told Women’s Health magazine.
The position of his passion was fully supported by the Spaniard himself. “I never thought that marriage would change anything in our lives. Perhaps I think so because my parents once divorced. But I don’t think that I will love someone more if I have an official piece of paper, ”Iglesias said in an interview with a Parade correspondent.
Tired of the constant "pressure" from others about the wedding, in 2013 Enrique and Anna decided to take a short break in the relationship. However, soon the athlete and the artist realized that they could not live without each other, and reunited. The musician did not want to comment on his personal life at all, so he again began to fool curious fans. During one of the concerts in 2014, Iglesias stated that he was a free man. “Three days ago I got divorced. Guys, I want you to be the first to know this. I'm serious. Just don't laugh," the Spaniard said from the stage.
Getting to know the parents
At about the same time, it became known that for more than ten years of the novel, Enrique never bothered to introduce a passion to his own father. Julio Iglesias admitted that he had never personally met Anna Kournikova.
“To tell the truth, I have never seen Anna. However, my wife and children are familiar with her, but I have not yet been lucky. It probably happened because all my children are very independent. I hardly see Enrique, because he constantly tours. But Anna, of course, is very beautiful. My son has great taste. I am very proud of him,” said Iglesias Sr. in an interview with The Mirror newspaper.
By the way, fans of the former first racket of the world and the musician suspect that it is precisely because of the peculiar relationships within the family that Anna and Enrique are still not officially married.
Kinder Surprise
Recently, Iglesias and Kournikova did not appear in public at all together. Moreover, neither the singer nor his fiancee ever publish joint shots on their Instagrams. Because of this, some fans civil spouses decided that they parted without too much hype.
However, as it turned out, the fans were deeply mistaken. All this time, the Spaniard and the Russian woman enjoyed peace and quiet in a common mansion in Miami and were preparing for the arrival of children.
Last year, Anna miraculously managed to avoid meetings with the paparazzi. Thanks to this, the athlete was able to keep her interesting position a secret until the very birth.
According to the TMZ portal, on December 16, Kournikova gave her chosen one twins - son Nicholas and daughter Lucy.
Bye famous couple doesn't comment like that significant event In my life. Nevertheless, both Enrique and Anna have repeatedly said that they dream of children.
“I would love to be a father. Hope it happens soon. It seems to me that I will be a cool dad, and my girlfriend will become the best mom in the world. I want to believe that when I have children, I will not have to constantly disappear on tour. It will be sad if I am not 6-8 months old, and my offspring will not recognize me, ”the singer said in an interview a couple of years ago.
The tennis player also openly expressed her desire to become a mother. True, for Anna it was unprincipled how she would have heirs - she was even ready to adopt a baby. Kournikova admitted that she takes great pleasure in caring for others, so she would like to have a child. Apparently, her cherished desire finally came true.
One of the most talked about couples last decade- Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias and Russian tennis player Anna Kournikova - after 16 years of relationship, they pleased the fans with great news: a week ago in Miami, secretly from everyone, Kournikova gave birth to twins to the singer.
The history of the relationship of the Russian beauty with the son of “that same Iglesias” began in 2001, when Anna arrived in Spain to shoot the video for “Escape”. By that time, it became clear that the tennis player's career was coming to an end, but external data allowed Kournikova to enter into lucrative advertising contracts.
Their first meeting could be their last.
Luxurious long-legged blonde with full lips, perfect skin and green eyes struck the spot with sophisticated Enrique, whose arms were visited by many famous heartbreakers, 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 clip, Iglesias was supposed to kiss Anna. But from the surging feelings, in the presence of the entire film crew, he declared that he was not going to do this, because he noticed a pimple on the girl's upper lip - a trace of a cold. Filming was delayed for a couple of hours. Anya ran away from the site and, in anger, almost smashed the dressing room, cursing the Spanish impudent man on what the world stands. But the signed contract made the girl pull herself together and return.
A little later, Iglesias admitted: “I deliberately lied, because I simply did not 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 did not lose. Soon they were already kissing - both on the stage where the hero of Iglesias sang, and in the cabin 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.
Drama of the Iglesias family
Throughout his career, the hot young Spaniard dreamed of dragging 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 strong sense of contradiction in his son - to do everything, just not to be like Iglesias Sr.
"Enrique Iglesias - the last star virgin"
Enrique's favorite thing was teasing overly curious paparazzi. He enjoyed inventing non-existent facts about his personal life. Once, 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 shocking purity of the artist appeared on the front pages of newspapers. However, even here the singer managed to emerge victorious: at a press conference, he deftly answered uncomfortable questions and at the end misled journalists, hinting at a possible marriage with Anna. And a little later, the paparazzi completely lost sleep when a ring appeared on the ring finger of the tennis player, which looked like an engagement ring. Since then, the public has watched their romance like a Mexican TV series: will they get married or run away?
Secret connections of Iglesias
Fans' suspicions about the lovers' quarrel were indeed justified. Kournikova has had a hard time since the scandalous photos of Enrique and the girl sitting on his lap appeared in the British edition. She turned out to be actress Estella Warren, who, by the way, looked like Anna as a sister.
Kournikova had to take all her will into a fist in order to go to the airport and meet Iglesias from London without scandal. In the arrivals hall, the girl was almost blinded by dozens of video and photo cameras aimed at her with flashes. Who knows what the poor man had to endure 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 hardly justified himself, explaining to his beloved that he had nothing to do with the actress, and then they drank a little in the bar, and he himself did not notice how Estella ended up on his knees. It was probably only then that Anna realized how much she was afraid of losing her beloved. Russian turned out to be an ideal life partner
No wonder they say: Russian girls - best wives. Anya became Enrique's reliable rear, friend and lover. She never demanded expensive gifts, did not rush to fashion parties and red carpets, did not make scandals and did not follow the singer on tour.Being a VIP herself, the girl avoids interviews about her personal life and, with all the Slavic care and devotion, provides her beloved with homeliness 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 how to cook it.
Anna's sports career was given quickly and easily: at the age of 14 she became a professional tennis player, and at 16 she reached the Grand Slam Cup semi-finals. 
At all competitions with the participation of Kournikova, the male part of the audience, with bated breath, listened to the breathtaking cries of the athlete and admired her tanned legs. At the end sports career the girl successfully realized herself in advertising of famous brands: Adidas, Omega, Yoneks and others.
She never waited for the official marriage proposal
The only thing that Anya could not give Iglesias for a long time was a child, although she knew how much he dreams of an heir. He often admitted to her that he wanted to be a father, but he could not understand that for a girl the birth of a baby out of wedlock is a taboo. The unwillingness of her beloved to marry became for her a quiet insoluble pain. 
Kournikova had her own reasons for this: even before Enrique, in her youth, she had two novels - with Russian NHL stars Pavel Bure and Sergei Fedorov. Men showered the girl with jewelry and apartments, but neither the broken 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 issue of marriage was resolved is unknown. Journalists express many guesses, including the secret wedding of lovers.
One thing is clear: now the couple is happily raising two kids - Lucy and Nicholas. We hope that soon we will learn new details from the life of these bright and passionate people!
