Who Is Anna Kournikova? Ex-Tennis Star And Enrique Iglesias Welcome Baby No. 4: Know Their Net Worth

Enrique Iglesias and his long-time partner, Anna Kournikova, have just received the sweetest present ahead of Christmas, as they welcomed their fourth child. The longtime couple quietly welcomed baby no. 4 on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, announcing the news days later with a love-filled Instagram post. Sharing a photo of their newborn wrapped in a hospital blanket and snuggled beside a plushy, the couple wrote on Instagram, “My sunshine 12.17.2025”.

The baby joins the Iglesias twins, Lucy and Nicolas, and their daughter, Mary. This time, however, the couple refrained from revealing the baby’s name or sex. The arrival of the fourth baby has once again brought the talented couple back to the spotlight, with fans’ curiosity rising about Enrique’s gorgeous partner, the star athlete and model who won the Bailando singer’s heart. Together, the two have built a tremendous fortune and an unmatched legacy.

Inside Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias’ decades-long love story

Enrique first met Anna in 2001 while shooting his music video for Escape. From thereon, their relationship has blossomed into a lasting bond, being at each other’s sides for more than two decades, despite intense public scrutiny. However, the couple has kept a relatively low profile, unlike most high-profile pairs, who rarely appear on red carpets or give interviews together. 

The Latin pop star occasionally shares glimpses of his low-key life with the Russian tennis star, sharing how they both prefer to stay family-oriented. In an October 2023 interview with PEOPLE, the Ring My Bells singer reflected on his first meeting with Anna:

"When we met — although she came from the sports world — in a way, we kind of got each other. She knew what my world was like. I kind of knew what her world was like. So that understanding helped a lot. We just started connecting little by little and got stronger and stronger and stronger."

In recent years, Enrique scaled back touring to spend more time with his loving family, and he firmly believes that fatherhood has changed his life for the better and reshaped his priorities. This year, Enrique made sure to wrap his tour by October 2025, and now we know why.

Who is Anna Kournikova?

The entertainment industry might know Anna as the stunning Russian model whom Enrique fell in love with, but the sports world knows her as one of the highest-paid athletes. Although she prefers to keep her personal life low-key, Anna Kournikova was one of the most recognisable athletes in the world. Born in 1981 in Moscow, Russia, she dominated tennis as an unbeatable force between the late 1990s and the early 2000s.

Anna became a professional tennis player in October 1995, reaching a career-high ranking of World No. 8 in 2000 and a Wimbledon semifinal appearance in 1997. She found even greater success in doubles, winning multiple Grand Slam titles alongside Martina Hingis and earning the popular nickname the “Spice Girls of Tennis.” 

In her brief yet glorious career, Anna won 16 career titles, including a World No. 1 ranking in 1999 and two Australian Open doubles championships (1999, 2002). However, her athletic career was cut short at its prime. In 2003, she had to retire from professional tennis at just age 21 due to chronic back injuries. At the end of her professional career, she was ranked No. 305 in singles and No. 176 in doubles. Even after retirement, her fame never faded. 

Anna’s fame extends far beyond her athletic career. She has also proven her mettle as a high-profile model, getting recognition as one of the most photographed athletes in the world. Even after retiring from tennis, she remained the face of major brands, including Adidas, Omega, Berlei, and K-Swiss. Anna has also appeared on the covers of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, FHM, and Maxim. At the height of her fame, these endorsement deals alone reportedly earned her up to USD 10 million a year. 

The couple’s combined net worth

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Anna Kournikova’s total career earnings stand at USD 3,584,662. As of 2025, the athlete-model’s net worth is estimated at USD 60 million, driven by her lucrative sponsorships. The 44-year-old leads a quiet but lavish lifestyle in a sprawling Miami estate with Enrique, where they raise their children in solitude. 

Enrique, on the other hand, earned a massive fortune through his decades-long musical career, with his net worth in 2025 reported at USD 100 million. His wealth continues to grow, driven by global record sales, tours, and decades of chart-topping hits. Together, Anna and Enrique’s combined net worth is roughly USD 160 million, and they maintain a life in quiet luxury, away from the spotlight.

Why didn’t Anna marry Enrique even after four kids?

With the arrival of a sixth member in the Kournikova-Iglesius family, the couple continues to build a life together, focused on family-first values. However, fans cannot help but wonder why the two still haven’t tied the knot. Addressing the same, Anna once shared in an interview with Women's Health that what matters more to her is being in a committed relationship than an official label.

Enrique, in an interview with Parade, mentioned that he, too, never saw official marriage as anything that would make any difference to how they felt about each other. He said:

"Maybe it's because I come from divorced parents, but I don't think you love somebody more because of a piece of paper. Nowadays, it's not taboo to have kids and not be married. What makes a difference is that you're a good parent, period."

Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova kept their first pregnancy a secret, and on December 16, 2017, the duo welcomed twins, Nicholas and Lucy. Three years later, in 2020, the couple welcomed their third child, a baby girl, Mary, into their lives. 

As they welcome baby No. 4, Iglesias and Kournikova continue to do things their way: privately, deliberately, and focused on family first.
