Tennis sensation Anna Kournikova, known for being crowned the ‘World’s Sexiest Woman’, retired at the age of 21 and is now living a quiet life with her partner, pop star Enrique Iglesias. Kournikova gained fame in the late 90s and early 2000s as a prominent figure in the tennis world, despite never winning a singles title. She made her breakthrough as a 15-year-old, reaching the fourth round of the US Open in 1996 and earning the title of WTA Newcomer of the Year.
She climbed the ranks to break into the world’s top 20 and reached a career-high ranking of No8 in 2000. In 2002, Kournikova won her second and final trophy. During the peak of her career, she made a guest appearance on Friends and was highly searched on Google.
At that time, she had begun a romance with Enrique Iglesias, whom she met two years earlier during the shoot for his ‘Escape’ music video. Over 20 years later, the couple is still together, leading a private life. They are proud parents to three children, with twins born in 2017 and another daughter in 2020.
Whether they are officially married remains a mystery, as Kournikova continues to use a hyphenated last name and occasionally sports a ring on her finger. The couple prefers privacy regarding the legal status of their relationship. Kournikova has emphasized the importance of trust and respect in their relationship, stating that they have been together for years and share a strong bond.
Meanwhile, Iglesias initially voiced his belief that marriage would not change much, but in 2022, he hinted on TV that they might have secretly gotten married, asserting that despite not having a public ceremony, they have been together for a significant portion of their lives.
