Strictly Come Dancing's Janette Manrara and Aljaž Škorjanec are currently on holiday in Slovenia... revealing they made a surprise visit for Aljaž's mum's birthday!
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, 19 April, Janette — who is currently pregnant with the couple's first child — shared a gorgeous video of Aljaž and herself visiting the country to surprise his mum. Captioning the lovely video, she said: "Surprise!! We planned a surprise visit to Slovenia to see @aljazskorjanec mom for her birthday today! So happy to see her reaction! We’ll be here for a few days, enjoying a bit of a #babymoon and time with our nieces together before our own little family goes from 2…. to 3 🤍 For now, SURPRISE @natasaskorjanec! Happy birthday! 🎈"
In the video, the couple can be seen on their journey to Slovenia — first by plane and then in a car. Later on, Aljaž's mum is all smiles at her lovely surprise — cuddling up with her son.
Fans and celebrities alike were quick to comment on just how sweet the gesture was. Strictly star Katya Jones said: "Ahhh that is so lovely!!!!!!! Happy birthday Natasha x" while former Strictly contestant, Gemma Atkinson, commented: "Oh bless her 🥹🥹"
As Janette noted, the pair are seeing their trip away as a "baby moon" — in the run up to welcoming their first child together.
Janette and Strictly co-star Aljaž got engaged in 2015. They married two years later, on 15 July 2017. In February 2023, the couple announced that Janette was pregnant and that they are expecting their first child together.
