The gorgeous stars dating immediately after the music video and have been together ever since, although they have never officially married. In 2011, Anna told Women’s Health that marriage wasn’t important because she was in a “happy relationship.”

After Anna and Enrique got together, they made a concerted effort to stay out of the public eye. The pair are rarely seen out together, and despite their enormous worldwide fame, manage to live a fruitful life away from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood.
“It’s really strange, it feels like it happened to me but it didn’t happen to me because it was such a long time ago,” she once told The Sun of becoming famous. “I played in every single continent by the time I was 16. It was an interesting way to grow up. When I stopped, most people had just come out of college and I was stopping the only thing I knew.”
Enrique supports the pair keeping to themselves, as he once told Australia’s Today Tonight in November 2011, per US Weekly,  “It’s not that tough [to stay under the radar].” He added, “You’ve got to have a sense of humor. [There have been rumors] I’ve been married about 28 times, have kids all over the world. I think I’ve got twins in Australia, in Perth. Truly, you just laugh at it.”
Anna and Enrique kept their pregnancies secret.
Speaking of keeping their private lives private, the pair secretly welcomed all three of their children. In December 2017, the couple gave birth to twins Nicholas and Lucy. A baby sister for the twins named Mary arrived two years later.
