Anna Kournikova, the former tennis star turned very private mom of three, made a rare public appearance this week — and when fans saw her growing baby bump, jaws dropped. The 44-year-old, paired with longtime partner Enrique Iglesias, is reportedly expecting her fourth child, and the pregnancy comes just months after concerns for her health were sparked by a shopping trip in Miami where she was seen in a wheelchair and an orthopedic boot.
👀 From Health Scare to Baby News
Earlier this year, the public was startled when Anna was seen using a wheelchair and wearing a medical boot in Miami. Concerned onlookers wondered if it was a serious injury — or something more worrying. The couple remained silent. But now, images from her recent outing with son Nicholas confirm she’s not only recovered — she’s pregnant — halfway through and glowing.
💬 Enrique’s Emotional Message
Enrique Iglesias, her partner of over two decades, broke his usual reticence to share in the joy. According to sources, he described feeling “a lot of responsibility, but happy and very excited” about their growing family. When asked if they know the baby’s gender, he smiled and said they’re still enjoying the anticipation and mystery.
🧘♀️ Quiet Life + Private Joys
The couple has largely kept their family life under wraps. Their three children, twins Lucy and Nicholas (age 7) and daughter Mary (5), have been shielded from media glare. But Anna’s recent walks around Miami — school runs, grocery trips, casual outings — show that this pregnancy is normalizing her return to the public eye in the softest, most grounded way. Her style remains modest: loose sweaters, comfy leggings, casual sneakers — comfort over glamour.
⚠️ So Why Does It Hit Differently?
It’s not just the pregnancy. It’s the context:
-
The health scare earlier this year made fans worry deeply. Many wondered if she was okay, both physically and emotionally. Seeing her pregnant offers relief.
-
At 44, pregnancy always carries more risk and sacrifice — and she looks serene, balanced, ready.
-
For someone who stepped away from tennis at 21 because of injuries, this is powerful: a reminder that life can be full beyond sport, beyond fame.
✨ What Fans Are Saying & What’s Next
Photos of Anna gently cradling her belly while holding her son’s hand have swept social media. Fans are cheering, sharing well wishes, calling her resilient. Some are curious whether the baby will be a boy or girl; others grateful she appears to be healthy and happy.
