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, happy event happened 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 latest similar photo 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 missed the wedding for an unknown reason stepsister singer 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.
