Ronnie O'Sullivan is poised to leave the UK for the Middle East after recently reaching an agreement with Laila Rouass when it comes to their old home.
The duo split back in December after nearly 13 years together, with Laila releasing a statement that read: "Break ups can strip you down to your essence.
"I got through mine by using pain as fuel to take control because no matter what, we will lose parts of ourselves in relationships.
"It’s normal, don’t beat yourself up. One thing I’m conscious of not doing is trying to get back to what I was. No, I’m discovering who I’ve become.

“I’ve gone through various emotions… hurt, pain, anger but what I’ve realised about anger is that it’s bottomless.
"It can go on and on and once you’re in that black hole…it’s very hard to drag yourself back out.
“Anyone going through a break up…I want to tell you that you will come out the other side. I have and I feel so much better, stronger and sexier.
"Life has a funny way of throwing in a plot twist here and there. I’ve even met an Arab Viking…like…how did that happen? Do they exist even?

“Just roll with the punches because life is so much richer, so much fuller when you drop the anger, the resentment and the regret.
"I’m looking back at my last relationship with a smile and wave, because time moves on and I don’t like to play catch up.”
Recently, it was reported that the duo had reached an agreement to sell their former east London home for a fee of £2million.
