Unlikely pairing Ronnie Wood and Ronnie O'Sullivan were snapped together on a wild night out with their wives Sally Humphreys and Laila Rouass.
The Rolling Stones rocker and snooker legend were out celebrating in posh west London on Tuesday night following the glitzy red carpet premiere for O'Sullivan's brand-new Amazon Prime documentary, The Edge of Everything.
Carrying on the celebrations at Scott's in Mayfair, the two Ronnies were snapped enjoying each others' company as they stepped out with their spouses Sally and Laila. The group looked in high spirits as they posed for photographers who captured their exit from the snazzy seafood eatery on the capital's Mount Street.

They appeared to be in a big group who all posed for a picture together outside Scott's, smiling for the waiting snappers.
They also captured the moment Wood cozied up to his wife Sally as they posed for individual pictures. The loved-up couple, who tied the knot all the way back in 2021, looked every bit the happy pairing as they embraced outside the restaurant. Sally looked effortlessly chic in an all-pink ensemble, breaking up the look with a black clutch. Wood mirrored his wife's bold look, wearing a sleek all-black suit, complemented with a pink button-up shirt.

Pal Ronnie O'Sullivan opens up about how large parts of his "dream" snooker career have in fact been an anxiety-riddled "nightmare" in his new tell-all documentary. The star allowed TV cameras to follow him for a year to make The Edge of Everything, which ends with his record-equalling seventh world title win in 2022.
But he fails to fully enjoy even that historic moment, and is heard seconds after victory telling his two kids: "I can’t do this anymore. It kills me." Earlier, in his dressing room, while just a few frames from glory, he looks close to breaking down and tells his friend and psychiatrist Steve Peters: "I feel like I’ve got stage fright. It’s horrible. I f****ing hate it. I feel like I want to cry. I feel I don't want to face it. I am f****ing gone. I am scared."

The group looked in high spirits on Tuesday (Justin Palmer / SplashNews.com)Many of Ronnie’s issues stem from his dad, who guided his early career, being jailed for murder in 1992. As he was taken down after sentencing, Ronnie Snr had a message sent to his son: "Just tell my boy to win". Ronnie breaks down recalling the story, saying: "Typical. ‘Just tell my boy to win’. Part of me was thinking ‘f*** you, f*** this, f*** everybody’. The healthiest thing for me was probably to stop playing snooker. But I didn’t, I just felt compelled to stick with it. I didn’t want to blame everything on that situation with my dad.
"But I would rather not have the snooker, just a normal family. Not to have gone through that. Forget the snooker. Just normal." He adds: "It was a dream, but looking back, it was a nightmare. I wasn’t good at having all this stuff locked inside me. People could see I was imploding. If I had let it all out they'd have locked me up. They'd have said he’s a danger to himself. Just self-sabotage and hatred towards myself."
- Ronnie O’Sullivan: The Edge of Everything is in cinemas and on Prime Video from Thursday.
