Former Strictly Come Dancing star Janette Manrara has sparked a bit of a divide as she declared 'we're back' in and update about her and her husband Aljaž Škorjanec. The dancers are not far away from welcoming their first child into the world.
Janette and Aljaz, who wed in 2007 years before they both joined the BBC One dance show, announced the wonderful news they were expecting back in February with their bundle of joy due this summer. The couple were just about to start IVF treatment when they found out Janette was pregnant.
The couple have since been excitedly preparing for their bundle of joy to arrive and Janette has been keeping her fans and followers updated on her pregnancy. However, Janette has recently turned back to work and she and Aljaz had some exciting news.

"WE ARE BACK!!" the 39-year-old typed alongside a picture of her and Aljaz, 33, who looked as gorgeous as ever with Janette sporting a red festive-inspired dress and Aljaz in a dapper suit. "So excited to finally announce that @aljazskorjanec and I will be back on stage dancing and performing for you all this year during the festive season," Janette revealed.
"It's been a while since we were on stage together, so this will be a very special one; especially as it’s our first holiday season as 3! Visit @rememberingtour Instagram’s link to get your pre-sale tickets now before they go on sale very soon! We cannot wait!"
And fans were thrilled. @katepat87 said: "I’m so happy to hear this Janette. It is the best thing I ever went to last year and at Xmas time ever. I felt so festive and happy. My twin sister and I came as it was also our birthday too in Glasgow. Can’t wait. And hope to meet you one day. You’re a real Disney princess."

Loved last year's show so much! Have missed watching you both! It’s gonna be special as always!"
But some were worried about Janette heading back to work months after welcoming her first child into the world. Earlier this week the mum-to-be let her followers in on her surprise Winnie the Pooh-themed baby shower which was arranged by fellow professional dancer Katya Jones and former Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts.
And it was just the baby shower itself that was the surprise as Janette's friends organised for her mother to be flown in to surprise her. Sharing a string of stunning images from the special occasion, Janette penned to her 537K followers: "So yesterday I walked into the most beautiful surprise #BabyShower!
"@iamashleyroberts @katyajones & my sister @missleslymarie back home, along w/an epic baby shower committee, organised the most beautiful afternoon! And the best part, they flew my mom over from Miami as a surprise! I had no idea! And @aljazskorjanec sister @laraljubic came from Slovenia as well, just for the day!"
She added: "I have never felt more lucky and loved! Thank you does not say enough how grateful I am for my amazing friends & family." And expectant mum Janette couldn't have looked happier as was seen cradling her blossoming bump amongst the balloons, and held a special one that read: "Janette's baby shower." She was also seen posing in front of a cute Winne the Pooh wall mural with her pals and beloved mum.
