Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias have welcomed their third child
Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias have secretly welcomed their third child.
The former tennis star and the Hero singer - who began dating in 2001 - already have two-year-old twins Nicholas and Lucy and in January pictures emerged of 38-year-old Kournikova with a baby bump on a boat in Miami.
Enrique’s brother Julio Iglesias Jr told an interviewer on Chilean radio station ADN: “I’ve already become an uncle [again].”

Asked: “Has the baby already been born?” the 46-year-old singer replied: “Yes.”
But he refused to reveal if the new baby is a boy or a girl, saying only: “It’s a secret.”
He added: “My brother now has three children. He’s very happy.”
Kournikova and Iglesias, 44, are extremely private. They managed to keep the Russian tennis player’s first pregnancy a secret until after the birth of the twins in December 2017.
The pair began dating in 2001 and Kournikova appeared in the music video for his song Escape.
There have been reports the couple split briefly in 2007, and there have also been rumours that they wed in the same year, but the pair have rarely spoken publicly about their relationship.
In 2018 Iglesias told radio station KTUphoria that Kournikova was a “superhero” for being mum to their twins.
