Anna's Monday photo showed her candidly photographed and inside her kitchen – a wine cooler and island stove were visible as the Moscow-born star held her beautiful baby. Anna was looking fit and ripped as she posed in a backless and muscle-flaunting top in dark shades, with the skimpy number also showing a black spandex sports bra beneath. Kournikova's rock-hard arms and sculpted shoulders were on show as she smiled while rocking a ponytail – baby Masha wore white and a feeding bib as she gazed ahead.

Comments came in fast for this one. Many fans responded in Russian, although with an international fanbase, Anna comes with her Anglophone fans.
"Two gorgeous ladies ❤️❤️❤️❤️?? Thank you for sharing! Masha is perfect," one user said.
"Daddy's face with mommy's colors ?," another wrote.
Of course, the star's sensational post-baby body was noticed, with one fan writing: "Always so fit after birth."
"Damn mommy looks hot!! ???❤️❤️," a user added.

Anna is notoriously private, having consistently declined to detail her relationship with 44-year-old Iglesias over the years. Opting out of announcing her third pregnancy, the blonde made headlines as her bump grew when she was photographed on a Miami yacht during the pregnancy. She took to Instagram to mark the birth, posting a close-up photo of herself and her newborn.
"My sunshine 01.30.2020," she wrote.
Anna has, however, opened up on motherhood overall.
"I love being a mom," she told The Sun in 2019, adding:
"I absolutely wanted to have children, whether I had my own or adopted."

Anna's feature with the British newspaper also saw her speak of her career. The star went pro aged just 14.
"I would get so nervous and get anxiety on the court," she said, continuing: "I wouldn't be able to move."
Also mentioned was the star's body image as she admitted to feeling "pressure when people were saying things like: You're too pretty, you can't play, or whatever."
Anna has 1.5 million Instagram followers, up from 1.2 million in October 2019.
