Ronnie O'Sullivan has married Laila Rouass just 10 months after they broke up.
Rouass herself posted to Instagram to reveal the pair had tied the knot, explaining that "Venice was booked", so the pair decided Cable Street in London would be suitable enough.
They have been engaged since 2013, with O'Sullivan getting down on one knee for the popular actress. They had separated in September 2024, and it was apparently "for good", but now they've committed to a long-term future together.
A friend of the pair told The Sun last year that they had been heading in different directions. O'Sullivan was playing for big money in China and Saudi Arabia, while Rouass had her own ambitions with her acting career.
However, it was stated at the time that there was "still a lot of love between them", leaving the door open for rekindling in the future, and that has now come to fruition.
"Palestinians have taught me so much, most importantly to honour human connection, make love your motivator and to keep refreshing it. So l suppose after almost a year break...this was one way of pressing the refresh button," wrote Rouass, star of Footballers' Wives, on Instagram.

"Ok... so it wasn't Venice...that was fully booked.
"It was Cable Street in Shadwell where I was born and where my heart belongs. It's where in 1936, local activists along with the Jewish community gathered together to demonstrate against the planned fascist BUF marchers.
"The Battle of Cable Street was used by my father as an example of how a community rooted in justice, can bring change...that we all have a duty to fight for the freedom and rights of others."
The newly-weds are reportedly keen on moving to Dubai together, being just a two-hour flight to O'Sullivan's snooker academy in Saudi Arabia.
'They have been back together for a while," said The Sun's source.
'The time apart gave them time to think about what they want and what is important to them — and that is being together. Ronnie is moving to the Middle East and Laila is going with him.

'They've talked about living in Dubai, which is just a two-hour flight from where Ronnie has his snooker academy in Saudi Arabia.
'They have had their issues in the past but Ronnie and Laila have worked through it and seem really happy again.
'The people who know them think they make a great couple and just want them to live a happy, quiet life.'

The former Juventus hero last played in September 2023 but insists he "still feels like a kid".

And it's understood he hoped to attract interest from the Bundesliga as well as Juve's major rivals in Serie A. Instead, however, Ligue 1 runners-up Monaco have swooped. The Old Trafford academy product left United for his first stint with Juve in 2012. Four glittering years later, Pogba returned to the Red Devils for a then-British record fee of £89million.

Just days ago, as he neared his move to Monaco, Pogba said: "I'm mentally and physically ready, and I'm eager to start again. "I'm 32, but I still feel like a kid." Pogba also criticised Juve for rejecting his pleas for help. He told French TV channel TF1: "I asked to get a fitness coach. I had the right, and I was always part of the team. "They were not very kind to me, they did not support me, and I was shocked. I did not understand why." "I thought I was at war with anti-doping authorities."

The beloved duo, known for captivating audiences on Channel 4's popular series until its conclusion in 2022, are no strangers to updating fans about their charming life in France. Tying the knot at their exquisite French chateau in 2015, the couple welcomed two children: Arthur, now aged 12, and Dorothy, who is 11. Recently, via Instagram, they marked an important family event as Arthur wrapped up his inaugural year at college — comparable to secondary school in the UK — boasting some notable achievements, as noted by the Express. In a post featuring a snapshot of Arthur donning a shirt awash with signatures – potentially marking his final day – Dick and Angel expressed: "Congratulations to our big boy Arthur! His first year at college is officially over and he has had a ball.." They further gushed: "It's a bit of a gushy parent this young man received some pretty big achievements this coming 3rd in his school for a National French Mathematics he was competing against all ages up to 15!", reports Devon Live. Continuing their earnest narrative: "Love him to bits and just could not be prouder... Dorothy still has a week left at it's all go with spectaculars and end of school parties."

He explained the conclusion of the beloved show as coinciding with key events in his children's lives, noting Arthur's preparation for senior school and Dorothy approaching her own transition. Speaking to a publication, he said, "The thing is, Escape to the Chateau is a year-long project for every season, and Arthur starts senior school, Dorothy is in her last year before she moves, and that change in the children was the rationale." He further noted: "Because we had back in 2022 huge conversations saying, before they get all the pressures that young people have in their lives on them, it was time for us to walk away from the escape. That's why we did it."

Jeremy Clarkson says he's 'done' after struggling with new 'venture'
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Jeremy Clarkson declared he's had enough of his pub venture, announcing he's "done" with engaging in future business pursuits after finding difficulty managing the enterprise behind such endeavours. The Grand Tour presenter embarked on this fresh commercial challenge in July 2024 when he took over an Asthall pub. His decision came on the heels of previous success with Diddly Squat farm and its associated farm shop. Clarkson has documented his foray into the pub scene through the newest season of 'Clarkson's Farm', yet he insists there will be no repeat performances. The pub, titled The Farmer's Dog, has become a nationally reputed attraction, spurring considerable online engagement and reviews. Speaking to The Times, Jeremy expressed his resignation from entrepreneurial life: "I'm done with business now. I am not starting another business as long as I live. I don't understand it and am not motivated by money. I just want a good craic." Clarkson has used his show to share insights into his experiences as a novice pub landlord, including the humorous reason behind naming the establishment The Farmer's Dog. Viewers of the fourth episode witness him navigating paperwork related to the pub acquisition, where he uncovers that Oxfordshire is popular among those who indulge in sexual escapades in public areas, reports the Mirror. Jeremy Clarkson was bemused to discover that the garden area of his recently acquired pub is officially marked as a "a picnic site" by the local council. After delving into this curious detail, Clarkson rang his lawyer who informed him that the spot had previously been linked with some "unwanted and anti-social behaviour" which "might put you off eating your picnic". The lawyer revealed: "We have happened upon some quite interesting photographs which capture certain graffiti and certain goings-on." Upon visiting the site, Clarkson confirmed his suspicions, noting discarded underwear in trees. He humorously addressed the dogging rumours on Instagram, posting a photo outside the pub with undergarments dangling from a stick, captioned: "Tell me you bought a pub on a dogging site without telling me you bought a pub on a dogging site." In other news, the presenter of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? had a grave health scare that landed him in hospital after he woke up one morning feeling unusually "clammy" with a tight chest and strange feelings in his arm. Investigation revealed one artery was completely blocked, and another was nearly so, leading to surgery. Post-scare, Clarkson has had to adopt what he terms "horrific" lifestyle modifications such as exercising, limiting his alcohol intake, and diet changes, leaving him to jest that he's "not allowed to have fun anymore".
