In 2023, during an interview with PEOPLE magazine, Anna Kournikova's partner, Spanish singer and songwriter, Enrique Iglesias spoke about meeting the tennis star for the first time.

Iglesias stated that when they met for the first time in 2001, they found a strong connection and mutual understanding, despite coming from very different career paths.

"(The video changed my life) in ways that I didn’t even think about. 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," he said.

The singer expressed that his and Kournikova's bond grew slowly and steadily which in turn helped their relationship grow stronger.

"We just started connecting little by little and got stronger and stronger and stronger. You learn as you go. You have your good times, your bad times, and if you can get through the bad times, you'll get to the really good times," he added.

On the tennis side of things, Anna Kournikova finished her career with two doubles Grand Slam titles to her name. She won the Australian Open in 1999 and 2002 alongside Martina Hingis on both occasions.

Kournikova and Hingis defeated the pair of Lindsay Davenport and Natasha Zvereva 7-5, 6-3 in the final to win the 1999 Australian Open doubles title. Then in 2002, the duo triumphed over the pair of Daniela Hantuchova and Arantxa Sanchez Vicario 6-2, 6-7(4), 6-1 to secure their second Melbourne Major doubles title.
