Anna Kournikova rules out marriage but ‘desperate’ to have kids

London: Anna Kournikova has expressed her desire to have kids although marriage is not on the cards for her, any time soon.

The former tennis star thinks that marriage is not important as long as she is in a happy relationship with beau Enrique Iglesias, who she has been dating for ten years. “[Marriage] isn’t important to me. I’m in a happy relationship – that’s all that matters,” the Daily Mail quoted her as saying in an interview with Women``s Health magazine. “I believe in commitment. I believe in being open and trusting each other and respecting each other completely,” she added. But despite her views on marriage, Kournikova is quite desperate to have kids. “I absolutely want to have children, whether I have my own or adopt,” she said, adding, “I love taking care of people.” ANI
