Pregnant Strictly star Janette Manrara shares adorable bump pics with Ashley Roberts

Strictly Come Dancing pro Janette Manrara has shared some adorable bump pictures as she posed alongside former Pussycat Dolls star Ashley Roberts. 

Janette, 39, is pregnant with her first child with husband Aljaž Škorjanec and as her due date approaches, Janette has shared the snaps on Instagram.

She and Ashley looked like firm friends as they stood back to back, before Ashley placed a sweet kiss on Janette's growing bump.

Janette followed this with a video clip of the pair dancing to the song Conga by Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine.

Captioning the clip, Janette wrote: "When you’re family is so far away, it’s good to know our little one will have fun aunties and uncles nearby like Auntie @iamashleyroberts. This baby is going to have so much fun!"

Fans of the pair were quick to comment on both the video and snaps. One wrote: "You both look fabulous your baby will be dancing inside of you. Have a fantastic weekend. Xxxx"

"love you both so much , the best duo [red heart emoji]" added another. And a third commented: Love this – fun aunties are the BEST – in so many ways [praise emoji]"

A fourth added: "Love this! You look amazing x My daughter was in the Performance Group who danced to this at Strictly Inverness in May… a dream come true performing for you both!!! [heart emoji] [dancer emoji]"

Janette and Aljaž, who married in 2017, announced their exciting pregnancy news back in February. The couple shared that they had been struggling to conceive and had begun considering IVF, but eventually ended up conceiving naturally.

Opening up about this to OK!, Aljaž told us: "I’ve found a complete new respect for my beautiful little Janette, who I love more than anything. It’s a little miracle how we got here.

The dancer described the process of trying to fall pregnant as draining both mentally and physically: “It’s hard mentally, it’s hard physically. It’s a big test. The struggles some people go through to fall pregnant – I’m just amazed by women."

Opening up more on impending fatherhood, Aljaz said he’s been ready for children for more than a decade. “I’ve been ready to be a dad since I was about 20-years-old,” he said.

"With our careers, it was always going to be completely down to Janette’s timing. Our bodies are our tools and I would never put any pressure on her.

"When she ventured more into the presenting world we were able to fully decide, ‘Right, let’s go for it.’ But then it still took us quite a while."
