Pumpkins, Smiles, and a Mysterious Bump

In the sun-drenched, Halloween-themed photo, Kournikova stood behind her children in a bright yellow duck costume with a beak hood and black sunglasses, striking a playful pose. Her two daughters beamed in matching pumpkin outfits, while their brother sat between them in a light yellow shirt.

The group exuded a festive and joyful Halloween spirit — but all eyes were on the curve beneath Kournikova's outfit that many fans believe to be a baby bump.

That speculation wasn't unfounded. According to a source, the growing family has already been confirmed. The insider said:

"Anna and Enrique are very happy to become parents again. They have proven to be great parents to their three children, and both of them love the process. They enjoy the activities and all that goes along with raising children."

The Queen of Privacy: A History of Surprising the Public

Kournikova has kept a famously low profile for much of the last decade. Her reappearance marks one of her few public moments in years. Back in 2017, she made headlines for her jaw-dropping secrecy after TMZ revealed she had given birth to twins in Miami — without anyone knowing she was pregnant.

Her decision to stay out of the limelight reflects the deliberate way she and Iglesias have shaped their life together. The couple first met in 2001 when Kournikova starred in Iglesias's music video for "Escape" sparking a relationship that has stood the test of time.

Speaking to their enduring bond, Iglesias once said during an interview:

"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."

Their powerful connection, built outside of Hollywood's usual chaos, has become the foundation of their closely-guarded family life. Still, Kournikova occasionally opens a window into her private world, like in 2018 when she shared a tender Instagram moment captioned "My Sunshine," kissing one of her children on the cheek.

Now, with a new baby seemingly on the way, Kournikova's emoji-filled post has touched hearts and made headlines — without a single word. In a world overflowing with oversharing, Kournikova says more with a pumpkin and a smile than most do in a thousand captions.
