A post shared by Ronnie O'Sullivan (@ronnie)
Known as 'The Rocket', O'Sullivan, the seven-time world snooker champion and a recovering addict, captioned his post: 'We finally made it official!! Mr & Mrs O'Sullivan.'
Rouass wrote a longer caption which she concluded with the words 'Free Palestine'.
She wrote: 'The Palestinians have taught me so much, most importantly to honour human connection, make love your motivator and to keep refreshing it. So after almost a year break … this was one way of pressing the refresh button.'
With a reference to the high profile nuptials of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, She continued: 'Ok…so it wasn't Venice … that was fully booked (laughing emoji) 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 and it's on their shoulders we stood today and said our 'I do's'.'
Rouass is best known for playing doctor Sahira Shah in Holby City between 2011 and 2021, and Amber Gates in Footballers' Wives, where her character was reportedly based on Victoria Beckham.
She has also appeared in Primeval and Spooks, as well as competing as a contestant on the seventh series of Strictly Come Dancing in 2009, where she was partnered with Anton Du Beke.

Orlando Bloom flirted with Kim Kardashian MONTHS before Katy Perry split as pair reunite in Venice
ORLANDO Bloom appeared to have eyes for Kim Kardashian months before his split from Katy Perry – as the pair reunite in Venice for Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's star-studded wedding. Actor Orlando, 48, was yesterday spotted sharing a warm embrace with Kim, 44, at the Gritti Palace Hotel just days after it was confirmed his decade-long relationship with Katy, 40, had ended. 7 Orlando Bloom was caught seemingly staring at Kim Kardashian's backside Credit: Getty But fans are pointing back to a telling moment from September 2024 as a possible clue that things had already started to unravel. While still very much engaged to Katy, Orlando was seen sneaking a cheeky glance at Kim's famous derrière during a high-profile gala in New York. The photo - taken at the Kering Foundation's Caring for Women Dinner - showed Orlando with his arm wrapped around Katy's waist while clearly looking down toward Kim's figure-hugging latex gown. At the time, fans flooded social media with comments as the snap made a swirl across the internet. read more on ORLANDO Bloom FULL BLOOM Mystery woman spotted with Orlando Bloom is his ex Katy Perry's former stylist "Maybe this is why they have been engaged for so long," one fan wrote on Instagram. "Doesn't surprise me he looks like a womanizer," another joked. "Would you be angry if you were Katy Perry?" wondered a third on X. Fast-forward to June 2025, and Orlando appears to be embracing single life once again – this time in Venice for Amazon billionaire Jeff's jaw-dropping three-day wedding extravaganza. Looking relaxed in a black vest and shorts, the newly single actor was seen strolling around the Italian streets before bumping into Kim and her sister Khloe at a swanky pre-wedding event. Kim, dressed head-to-toe in chic Balenciaga, welcomed Orlando with open arms as the pair hugged at the luxe Gritti Palace. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez say I DO in front of A-list guests in wedding of the century Khloe, in bold leopard print, stood by watching the warm reunion unfold. Later, the trio were seen seated together as A-listers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey and Usher mingled nearby. Orlando, clearly in high spirits, was also seen licking his lips as he made his way onto a yacht ahead of the celebrations. Despite Orlando's wandering eye, Katy has been friends with the reality star for years. In 2017, Kim thrilled her eldest daughter North West by taking her to one of Katy's concerts, which included a meet-and-greet. 7 Kim stunned in a figure hugging dress at Lauren and Jeff's wedding Credit: Splash 7 The superstar was spotted boarding a boat Credit: AP 7 Orlando was all smiles heading to the venue Credit: EPA 7 The actor is yet to speak out on Katy Perry split rumours Credit: Splash In 2018, the pair hung out together at the Met Gala. Two years earlier, Orlando was famously caught staring at Katy's backside in a similar snap at the event before they began dating. Katy met Orlando in 2016. The high-profile couple got engaged three years later, but there still hasn't been a wedding. "It was very sweet. It was Valentine's Day … we went to dinner and I thought we were going to go see some art after dinner but we pulled up to a helicopter," the Women's World singer told Jimmy Kimmel on the topic of Orlando proposing. "We landed on a rooftop [in Los Angeles] — my whole family was there, and all my friends. He did so well," she added. Other celebs at the gala included Salma Hayek, Lauren Sanchez, Dakota Johnson, Lindsay Lohan, Matthew McConaughey, Naomi Watts, Julianne Moore, Viola Davis and Donatella Versace. It comes after reports the Pirates of the Caribbean actor would "make his debut as a single man" at the A-List wedding of the year's three-day celebration. Clearly eager to embrace his stunning Italian surroundings - and escape speculation over his situation with the Roar hitmaker - he has touched down ahead of the nuptials. Orlando was seen looking casual in a black vest top and shorts, finishing off with white sports socks. He was seen stretching out as he strolled around the picturesque Italian streets with a pal, before spotting Kim, 44, and sister Khloe, 40, at nearby restaurant, The Gritti Palace. Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum Kim looked chic in black Balenciaga trousers paired with a dark bandeau top. She pulled on a pair of silver sunglasses and brushed her locks into a slicked-back up-do and was seen opening her arms to welcome the Lord Of The Rings actor into an embrace. Her sister Khloe, decked out in bold leopard-print, could be seen watching the pair as she stood alongside. The trio then sat at the same table as wedding attendees mingling at the pre-ceremony event. Jeff and Lauren's wedding venue was recently revealed as an "open air theatre" on a Venetian island. A series of jaw-droppingly pricey hotel suites have also been booked out for the happy couple and their guests. Kim and Orlando's warm welcome came after it was reported Katy - who shares daughter Daisy with Orlando from their 10-year partnership - told pals they were over back in January. The I Kissed A Girl songstress won't be part of the wedding celebrations - despite cutting a striking figure in a see-through top at Lauren's Hen - as she is on tour. ALL CHANGE Last week, The Sun reported how Orlando and Katy held crisis talks to try to save their relationship after leading increasingly separate lives. American news website TMZ then said Brit-born Orlando would be 'the life of the party' and that he would be hitting 'the dancefloor hard' when he arrives in Italy for the nuptials. An insider said: 'No one has decided it's definitely the end of the road for Katy and Orlando. 'They both love each other, but they have been living different lives for at least a year and in different mindsets.' It's understood Orlando and Katy are planning on reuniting on July 4 when there is a break in her touring schedule. The insider added: 'They have barely been together for a decent amount of time, without distractions, for many, many months.' Tensions within their relationship also reached boiling point after Katy's flight to space on board Jeff's Blue Origin. Katy, along with Lauren and Gayle King, were hit with a public backlash and those close to Orlando said he had warned Katy about taking part. They said: 'From day one, Orlando didn't think going on the Blue Origin mission was a good idea, and knew she would face a backlash.' DONE DEAL? Yet it was then claimed Katy - who is on tour in Australia - had told her mates their engagement was over at the start of the year, before removing her engagement ring. A source close to the couple said: 'Katy confided in friends at the start of the year that their relationship was as good as done. 'They decided to hold off on announcing anything in case things improved between them, because they are desperate to stay together for the sake of their daughter. "But they have spent barely any time together this year, with Katy on tour and Orlando working on his upcoming film Bucking Fastard in Dublin. 'She knew that taking off her engagement ring would send a clear message. 'It's been a hard year so far. They wanted to wait until the tour is over before they made their split official, although Katy has grown tired of the situation.' The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. However, The Sun understands they had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January but struggled to make a firm decision. Reps for the couple refused to comment when approached about their separation in February and again this week. 7 Katy Perry did not attend Lauren and Jeff's wedding with Orlando Credit: Splash

Billy Ray Cyrus 'fixing toxic family feud' after startling realisation
Liz Hurley and Billy Rae Cyrus raised eyebrows when they went public but not only are they smitten, says a source, the model is helping her country singer boyfriend turn his life around Elizabeth Hurley and her country legend beau Billy Ray Cyrus have been cosying up at glamorous events since going public in April – but their romance runs far deeper than red carpet appearances together, a source close to Liz has claimed to OK!. They told OK! that Liz, 60, is also helping mend the 63-year-old singer's heartache, by gently encouraging him to fix his fractured relationships with his children, including singers Miley and Noah, after he 'pushed them all away'. 'Liz is the love of Billy Ray's life – that's what he calls her,' claimed the source. 'Her friends are saying she's never been happier and that she feels she can totally turn his life around. He's seen how close she is to her own son, Damian and she is helping him mend those sometimes difficult relationships with his daughter and the rest of the family. She's helping him reconnect with his family and mend those relationships. She knows how important it is, as she's very close with Damian and she wants the same for Billy Ray. They're stronger than ever – he's fallen for her in every possible way. She's hoping she will be the guiding light and bring out the best in him.' Achy Breaky Heart singer Billy Ray has described Liz as 'a great human being' and credited her with bringing joy back into his life. The couple have appeared together at several high-profile events, from the Orizzonti/Rosso exhibition in Rome to various fundraising galas in London. They sent shockwaves through the showbiz world when they went public in April, following one of the most difficult chapters in Billy Ray's life. The American singer had been dealing with the fallout from his split from second wife Tish – who he had been married to for 30 years in 2022. This was followed by his subsequent brief marriage to third wife Firerose, who he married in 2023 and divorced in 2024. There were rumours of tension, following his split from Tish, among his six children – Miley, Noah and Braison (who he had with Tish), Brandi and Trace (who he adopted during his marriage to their mother, Tish) and Christopher (who he had with former girlfriend Kristin Luckey). Trace, 36, posted an open letter to his dad on Instagram in January to say the family were 'genuinely worried' about him. He wrote, 'Since my earliest memories, all I can remember is being obsessed with you and thinking you were the coolest person ever. I wanted to be just like you. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life. "Sadly, the man that I wanted so desperately to be just like I barely recognise now. It seems this world has beaten you down and it's become obvious to everyone but you. You may be upset with me for posting this but I really couldn't care less at this point. Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you've pushed all of us away.' While Miley didn't respond to her brother's statement, there were rumours she had fallen out with her dad too. However, since Billy Ray started dating Liz, the family appear to be coming back together. The pair headed out to support Miley at the premiere of her new film Something Beautiful in London last month. 'Billy Ray has been on the wrong track and was previously hitting the bottle and struggling,' said our source. 'Liz leads a super clean lifestyle – she's very fit, super into what she eats and keeping in top shape, and she's trying to help him in every area of his life, from his health to his family.' Billy Ray and Liz's friendship began when they filmed the 2022 festive flick Christmas In Paradise together. Billy Ray previously revealed that Liz had contacted him while he was experiencing difficulties in his personal life, which became the trigger for their romance. Appearing on Apple Music Country's The Ty Bentli Show , Billy Ray recalled, 'I felt like, 'Wow, can life get any harder? Can it get any tougher?' For me, at a certain point, it was like, you can't get knocked down any flatter than lying on your back when life is kicking you. And in this moment a friend reached out.' Billy Ray said Liz's message said something like, 'Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know I'm in your corner – you've got a friend in your corner.' Billy explained that he didn't have Liz's number saved in his mobile and was baffled by who was behind the message. 'So, I text back, 'Who is this?' And it's like, 'Elizabeth Hurley.' Of all the people to reach out to me in that second that maybe I needed most – this friend who made me laugh.'
