Laila Rouass and Ronnie O’Sullivan: Are the pair still together?
Back in February 2022, former Holby City actress Laila Rouass and legendary Snooker player Ronnie O’Sullivan announced they’d called quits on their relationship, after almost 10 years together. The actress later revealed in May 2022 the updated status on their relationship, and fans were overjoyed.
Laila, who played the infamous role of Amber Gates on hit show Footballers’ Wives, announced the shock news that they had split on Twitter on Wednesday 16th February 2022.
She wrote at the time: ‘After nearly ten years of love and memories, Ronnie & I have parted ways. Peace & love to you all. Laila X’. (sic)
However, when Laila appeared on Loose Women on Friday 13th May of that same year, she confirmed the couple were now back together following weeks of rumours.
Admitting the pair had already been apart for eight months when she made the public announcement in February, she told the panel the pair were able to sort out their differences and are now back together.
On 14th February 2023, Laila even shared a sweet post to her Instagram to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Posting a sweet picture of the pair looking loved up, she simply captioned the post: ‘ ❤️ @ronnie ‘.
Fans were overjoyed by the sweet tribute, with one commenting: ‘My ALL time faves 💜’ and another writing: ‘Happy Valentine’s Day to you both x’. (sic)
In May 2023, Ronnie spoke to The Mirror where he was full of praise for Laila. He told the publication: “She’s great. I love her. She’s great company and I love being around her. She’s very supportive. I have to behave myself. I know when to go, ‘Alright, you’re in charge.
“But she’s also really good at going, ‘Listen, you’ve got a busy life, you’ve got a lot to do, just get on with it’.”
Speaking about what’s different now, Ronnie added: “Now it feels a lot better – everyone’s just in a better place. I just want to see her and her daughter happy, and her family, who are like my family, happy.”
In December 2023, Laila uploaded a photo on the red carpet alongside Ronnie, for his Prime Video documetary
She wrote: ‘With my boo @ronnie at his premiere The Edge of Everything 🤍’. (sic)
