While the cause of the athlete’s injury is unknown at the moment, some netizens felt the photo was an invasion of privacy and argued her status should not be made public without her consent.
“Leave her alone! She’s trying to be low-profile, and not bothering anyone,” one user stated, pointing out how the celebrity has made a conscious effort to be out of the limelight in recent years.
“I wish her a speedy and full recovery, but please let them be a private family,” another replied.
Kournikova and her husband met just one year before she retired from tennis due to a number of ongoing injuries. Iglesias was filming the music video for his single Escape in 2001.
The couple bonded over the hardships of growing up in the spotlight, with the experience allowed them to understand each other in ways no other partner could.

“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,” the singer said, recounting their meeting.
“[The video changed my life] in ways that I didn’t even think about.”
