Rise to Stardom
Anna Eberstein gained media attention in the early 2010s when it was revealed that she was in a relationship with Hugh Grant. Grant, who was considered Britain’s most eligible bachelor, had never been married and had fathered several children with his girlfriends after turning 50. The British tabloids were particularly interested in Grant’s love life, making Eberstein the center of media scrutiny. Although the couple had kept their affair secretive, the news of the birth of their first child in 2012 and another in 2015 received significant media coverage. In January 2018, Eberstein made a public appearance at the ‘Golden Globe Awards’ while pregnant with her third child with Grant. The birth of their child in March and the surprising news of their upcoming marriage in May 2018 further drew media attention.

In December 2008, Anna Eberstein joined ESPN as the on-air promotions coordinator. Her responsibilities included organizing the monthly workload and versioning of promos for 5 ESPN channels in 7 languages across EMEA. She later became an assistant producer on ESPN shoots and was eventually promoted to the position of promotions producer for marketing and sales in April 2011. In this role, she produced various types of advertising and communication content and served as the key communicator between the creative department and the marketing and sales department. In September 2013, she left ESPN and started working as a freelance creative producer and director. In March 2014, she co-founded the online kids’ retail brand ‘Ace&Me’ in London, UK, and has been serving as the director for the apparel and fashion company for over four years.

Relationships
Anna Eberstein and actor Hugh Grant have been in a relationship for about six years. The details of how and when they first met have not been publicly disclosed, as the couple prefers to keep their relationship private. Interestingly, during the early 2010s when they started dating, Grant was also involved with Tinglan Hong, a receptionist at a Chinese restaurant in London. Grant and Hong had a daughter named Tabitha in September 2011. The following year, Grant and Eberstein welcomed their first child, a son named John Mungo Grant, in September. Despite his publicist initially describing his relationship with Hong as a “fleeting affair,” Grant reunited with her the next year and they had a third child, Felix Grant, in February 2013. Grant then got back together with Eberstein and they had a daughter in December 2015. In early 2018, Eberstein’s mother revealed to the Swedish media that she was expecting another child.
In March 2018, Grant’s ex-girlfriend, English actress and model Elizabeth Hurley, confirmed during an interview that Grant and Eberstein had welcomed their third child together. After six years of being together, reports of the couple getting married surfaced in May 2018. Although there has been no official comment from Grant’s representative, the couple’s wedding banns were spotted at Kensington and Chelsea register office in late May. This would be the first marriage for both Eberstein and Grant, who has been in several relationships in the past, including a 13-year-long high-profile affair with Elizabeth Hurley. The wedding is scheduled to take place in May 2018, and the couple currently resides with their children in a £10 million house in Notting Hill, London.
