Ronnie O'Sullivan and his wife, Laila Rouass, have been spotted enjoying a romantic evening out in Dubai following their departure from the UK last year.
The seven-time snooker world champion married the actress in an intimate ceremony last year and has since embraced their new life in the Middle East.
O'Sullivan has reportedly taken well to the relocation, settling comfortably into his surroundings in the Gulf state.
Rouass captured the evening on Instagram, sharing footage of the pair relaxing together during their night out.
