Enrique and Anna. the love everyone envy
Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova don’t show up for public events, don’t give almost any interviews and don’t publish family photos on social media (however, this has changed a little in the past several years).
This is why they are considered to be one of the most secretive couples in show business. But still, for 21 years, they have been living together happily, raising 3 children, and are an exemplary couple for other celebrities and ordinary people.
We at CHEERY decided to find out at least some details about the love story and found out what the secret of their happy relationship is.
Before Anna met Enrique Iglesias, she was already a famous tennis player. Even though she hadn’t won any singles titles, by 2000, she reached No. 8 in the world.

Enrique was quite a popular singer both in his country, Spain, and abroad. His “Bailamos” was released as a single and became a number one hit in the US.

In 2001, Iglesias released his second album in English, “Escape”. Dave Meyers, the director of the first single’s music video, also titled Escape, invited tennis star Anna Kournikova to appear in it. “She’s independent, she’s beautiful, she’s funny,” Enrique would say later about the stunning athlete.
In the video, there are a few spicy scenes where Enrique and Anna are kissing. Iglesias said in the behind-the-scenes video that he didn’t need to be a good actor to kiss Anna and look plausible.
This is why it’s not surprising that after the video was released, the press immediately decided they were dating. Reporters were constantly trying to catch them together. But they never confirmed that and didn’t appear together in public.
