Enrique Iglesias doesn't want to marry Anna Kournikova.

He has been dating the tennis player for eight years but insists he's not "mature" enough to settle down and start a family.

He told Britain's Hello! magazine: "I believe in marriage but I don't think you need to be married to be happy. I've seen blissfully happy couples who aren't married and I've seen married couples who are miserable.

"It's hard to keep a relationship healthy and stable - you only have to look at divorce figures.

"It's the same with children. Being a father is a huge responsibility and though I'd love to have children right now is not the moment. Let's see if I mature some day!"

However, the 33-year-old musician believes Anna, 27, is the love of his life - for now.

He said: "Anna is amazing, she's the ideal woman. She's the woman of my life now and, though I don't really believe in eternal love, it sometimes does happen."
