Janette Manrara has issued a lengthy statement about husband Aljaz Škorjanec quitting Strictly, in which she admits to having 'mixed emotions' over his decision to walk away from the show.
After nine years on the BBC ballroom show, former champion Aljaz announced that he is walking away from the show that shot him to British TV fame back in 2013, when he won in his debut year alongside Abbey Clancy.
Aljaz, who starred in the last series alongside Dragons Den star Sara Davies, began his announcement by looking back on the phone call that 'changed his lift forever' when he asked asked to do Strictly. He continued: ""It didn’t matter how many beautiful ballrooms I performed in during my competitive career, stepping onto the sacred Strictly floor was the most nervous I had ever been.
