Sweet Pics Of Anna Kournikova And Enrique Iglesias Throughout Their Relationship

It all started with a music video. In 2001, king of Latin pop Enrique Iglesias enlisted tennis pro Anna Kournikova to star in the music video for his song "Escape." In it, the art seems to predict their future life, as the athlete plays his love interest. Their connection continued when the cameras stopped rolling, and 25 years later, they're still going strong as a couple and parents of four children. We're not sure which of the surprising things that contribute to healthy, long-lasting relationships have helped this early-aughts super couple the most, but keeping their relationship out of the spotlight might have been a contributing factor.

This duo is notoriously private when it comes to their enduring love, rarely posting snaps together on social media. Thankfully for fans, there are a few sweet pics of the couple together throughout their relationship, both snapped by photographers and the couple. And these are definitely more child-friendly compared to the steamy "Escape" scenes.

Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias reportedly started dating at the end of 2001, but didn't hit the red carpet together until the MTV VMAs in August 2002. The couple, both beautiful and successful in their respective fields, drew a lot of interest from the public, eager to catch a glimpse of them. In 2003, paparazzi delivered by capturing sweet moments between them at the beach in L.A. In some of the snaps, they were making out, while in others, they were casually sitting on a bench seemingly enjoying each other's company.

Former tennis pro Anna Kournikova's Instagram is full of snaps of her kids, her workout routine, pics of herself going makeup-free and looking flawless, and, of course, her dogs. The dogs feature much more regularly than longtime partner Enrique Iglesias does. However, we got to see the Russian beauty, in a seriously aughts-appropriate outfit, with dogs and the Spanish singer in 2004 in Los Angeles. The couple, who live in Miami, frequently take their pups out on their boat.

Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias have never hidden their affection for each other while in public, including at a 2006 Miami Heat basketball game. Iglesias is known for being affectionate with fans at concerts. As he said on Sirius XM show "Hits 1 Miami with Mack & Jen" in 2024, "Anna will be at one of my shows and I'll do that. I do that all the time — I love embracing, kissing and hugging my fans. I like getting close up." He added that his confident partner isn't intimidated by this behavior.

While details are limited about Anna Kournikova's super-private relationship with Enrique Iglesias, this sweet snap feels very telling about the love that exists with this pair. After the C-section birth of their third child, Mary, in January 2020, Kournikova posted this picture to Instagram. "Congratulations! So sweet, keep the love burning," wrote one fan. Another simply added: "Goals." Mary's two older siblings, twins Lucy and Nicholas, were born in December 2017.

There's much to admire in Anna Kournikova's lavish life, both material and not. And this photo shows one of the latter. In May 2022, Kournikova posted this snap of her and Iglesias with three of their children celebrating both his birthday and mother's day. "One [of the] most genuine couples I know. They're perfect with each other! Made in heaven indeed! Blessed with beautiful children! What a perfect life," wrote one enthusiastic follower. The pair would go on to have a fourth child, Romeo, in December 2025.

In 2016, Anna Kournikova posted this sweet pic of her with partner Enrique Iglesias, and her younger brother, Allan Kournikova, who's a golfer (and has actually caddied for family friend and first granddaughter Kai Trump). Iglesias, who turned 51 in 2026, and Kournikova, who turned 45 in '26, continue to keep their relationship posts to a minimum. Thankfully for fans, Kournikova still regularly posts photos of their adorable offspring, giving followers something to swoon over.
