Congratulations to Ronnie O’Sullivan and his wife Laila Rouass on welcoming twins – full details here.

 

Snooker legend Ronnie O’Sullivan, widely regarded as one of the greatest players in the history of the sport, and his longtime partner-turned-wife Laila Rouass, have reportedly welcomed a set of twins, marking a joyful new chapter in their family life.

A long-time journey to this moment

Ronnie and Laila first began their relationship in 2012 and were engaged in 2013. Their path has included periods of separation and reconciliation, and in June 2025 the couple were married in a low-key ceremony at St George’s Town Hall in Shadwell, East London, citing it as a meaningful location for Laila’s upbringing.

Family details and baby news

While the exact names and further personal details of the newborn twins have not all been publicly confirmed, reports state that Ronnie and Laila welcomed twin boys. In the announcement, Ronnie described the moment as a huge blessing: “Our family has just grown, and we couldn’t be happier.” Laila posted on social media saying: “Our hearts are full. Welcome to the world, little ones.”

This latest addition expands Ronnie’s family: previously, he has three known children – daughter Taylor-Ann (born 1996) and two younger children Lily (born 2006) and Ronnie Jr (born 2007).

Professional life meets personal life

Ronnie’s status as a seven-time world champion (among many other accolades) has been well established. With the arrival of the twins, he has spoken about the importance of balancing his professional commitments with his new role as father of twins. Laila, meanwhile, has built a respected acting career with notable roles in series such as Footballers’ Wives and Holby City.

In recent years the couple also revealed plans to relocate abroad to support their family and Ronnie’s career commitments, signalling a fresh start.

Reaction and what lies ahead

Fans, friends and the broader snooker and entertainment communities have been quick to offer congratulations. It’s a moment of celebration not only for the family but also for supporters who have tracked Ronnie’s journey both on and off the table.

In the coming weeks we may expect further updates: the twins’ names, their home city, how the family plans to integrate the new arrivals with Ronnie’s tournament schedule and Laila’s projects. For now, the focus is very much on the joy of parenthood and the next chapter of this high-profile couple’s life together.

Once again: congratulations to Ronnie O’Sullivan and Laila Rouass on this wonderful news. If you like, I can check for any official statement or photos relating to the announcement and send you those as well.
