In a heartwarming announcement that delighted fans worldwide, global music icon Enrique Iglesias and former tennis superstar Anna Kournikova have welcomed their fourth child together. The couple, known for fiercely guarding their privacy, shared the joyous news on social media, marking another beautiful chapter in their two-decade-long romance.
A Quiet Announcement for Their Newborn
The couple took to their social media handles on December 23 to introduce their latest bundle of joy. The baby was born on Wednesday, December 17. In a tender joint post, the 50-year-old singer and the 44-year-old former athlete chose to keep the newborn's gender private, simply captioning the image, "My Sunshine." The photograph shows the infant, snug in a hospital beanie and wrapped in a blanket, peacefully resting next to a cute sloth stuffed animal.
From Music Video Sparks to a Lasting Bond
The love story of Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova is one for the ages, blossoming away from the glaring spotlight. Their journey began in December 2001 on the set of Iglesias's hit music video for Escape. The on-screen chemistry was undeniable and quickly translated into a real-life connection.
Choosing to nurture their relationship in private, they made their first official public appearance as a couple at the 2002 Video Music Awards. This decision to stay out of the tabloids and let their bond grow away from public scrutiny has been a hallmark of their partnership. They have consistently supported each other's careers and personal milestones, building a strong, inseparable unit.
Growing Their Family with Joy and Privacy
After more than a decade together, the couple surprised the world in December 2017 by welcoming twins, a boy and a girl named Nicholas and Lucy. They had successfully kept the entire pregnancy out of the public eye. Their family expanded again just three years later when they welcomed their third child, a daughter named Mary, on January 30, 2020.
With the arrival of their fourth child, the family of six continues to embody a narrative of enduring love, mutual respect, and a cherished life built away from the limelight. Their story remains an inspiring example of a celebrity romance that has thrived on privacy and genuine connection.
