Former Russian tennis star Anna Kournikova reportedly gave birth to twins with her longtime boyfriend (or possibly husband), musician Enrique Iglesias, this weekend, TMZ writes — but no one had even known she was pregnant. The children, reportedly named Lucy and Nicholas, are the first for the famously private couple.

Kournikova's surprise pregnancy is an oddity in a world of social media rumors and prying paparazzi, although TMZ notes "the last photo we can find of the 36-year-old in public is … on a boat in Miami ... from November 2016." On the twins' alleged birthday, Kournikova posted photos of herself on a boat to Instagram.
