Support quickly poured in from figures connected to the sport’s governing body, the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA), with many praising the couple for their strength and honesty during such a sensitive time. Several members of the snooker community took to social media to send their well-wishes and remind the couple that they are not facing the situation alone.
