Ronnie O’Sullivan pots Holby City actress Laila Rouass for good… as they are engaged to be married
He’s known as the Rocket when he’s playing snooker.
And Ronnie O'Sullivan no doubt felt on cloud nine after proposing to former Holby City actress Laila Rouass.
The 37-year-old champion presented his beautiful bride to be with a £55,000 diamond ring from Harrods, as he asked her to be his wife.

Ronnie who is the reigning World Snooker Champion has reportedly purchased a £2milllion mansion in Essex, where he and ex-Footballers’ Wives star Laila will settle down.
The professional player split from his wife Jo Langley, 41, with who he has two children, in 2008.
But Ronnie has now moved on with Laila who came fourth in Strictly Come Dancing in 2009.
Snooker legend: Ronnie has taken a break from snooker for the time being
A source told The Sun: ‘Ronnie spent the night leaning over the table gazing at Laila. They were very relaxed with each other and he couldn’t take his eyes off her.
‘She has been brilliant at helping him with his stress and depression.’
Laila who is a few years older than Ronnie at 41-year-old also has a child from a previous relationship.
She has a five-year-old from her relationship with business tycoon Nasir Khan who was jailed in 2007 for nine years for a £250million VAT fraud.

The engagement is no doubt a silver lining for Ronnie who has had a difficult year after making the decision to quit the game.
At the time his manager said he was taking a break from the sport as he was suffering from health and personal problems.
Since then Ronnie has revealed that he has been spending his time labouring on a farm for free.
Speaking about his new role, he said: ‘I have been doing about three days a week and really enjoying it.
‘It has been kind of the complete opposite to what I was going through the last couple of years in snooker.’
