Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias are officially parents! The former tennis player, 36, gave birth to twins on Saturday, December 16, in Miami, Us Weekly can confirm! The pair, who kept their pregnancy completely private, had a boy and a girl, named Nicholas and Lucy.
On that same day, Kournikova posted three photos on Instagram, riding on a boat and wearing an oversized windbreaker jacket from Iglesias’ tour. She captioned it “#miamiwinter #nofilterneeded. Iglesias also posted a photo from the boat of himself.
The notoriously private couple have been dating for 16 years after meeting on set of his “Escape” music video back in 2001. In June 2016, the Kournikova shared a rare photo with the singer and her little brother, Allan — it’s one of the only photos the two have ever shared together. While they’ve never revealed their status, she does wear a giant yellow diamond on her left hand’s ring finger.
In 2014, the singer stayed mum when asked if he had any plans to walk down the aisle. “This is a new era! A paper doesn’t guarantee your happiness. Besides we are just fine with sex and love,” he told Latina magazine.
However, two years later, he hinted that it’s possible the pair already tied the knot. “I don’t believe you need a piece of paper to show you love someone,” he told E! News in 2016. When asked if he had any plans to get married, he added, “Who knows what the future holds…or the past…haha.”
Us Weekly has reached out to the couple’s reps.
