Strictly couple open up about baby plans after “perfect” honeymoon

They had THREE weddings last summer

Strictly Come Dancing’s Aljaz Skorjanec and Janette Manrara have said they can’t wait to have a family – but it’s not on the cards just yet.

The professional dancers, who married last July, have just returned home from a luxurious, sun-soaked honeymoon in the Seychelles.

In a new interview with OK! magazine, the couple spoke about their desire to have kids, but admitted their hectic careers means now isn’t an ideal time.

“We’re family people and we do eventually want to have a family. For us, family is everything,” said Janette.

“But we are so happy with where our careers are at the moment that we want to enjoy it as much as we can. Then a little further down the line we will get ready for a baby

“There will definitely be a little Skorjanec running around at some point.”

Aljaz, 28, and Janette, 34, tied the knot in THREE separate ceremonies last summer, saying their vows in Slovenia, where Aljaz is from, in Miami, which is Janette’s hometown, and London, where they now live.

They immediately began filming for the last series of Strictly, which was followed by the Strictly live tour this year, meaning they’ve only just found time to honeymoon.

Janette said their dreamy break in the Seychelles had been “perfect” and well worth the wait.

“It gave us time to reconnect with each other and it also gave us a chance to reflect on our three weddings. We did a lot of reminiscing. It really was beautiful,” she said.

Of course, the question now is, with three weddings, does that mean they get three honeymoons?!

Janette was paired with Aston Merrygold on last year’s Strictly, while Aljaz was teamed with Gemma Atkinson.

Now that Janette and Aljaz are back from honeymoon, it’s straight back to work as they rehearse for their upcoming Remembering Fred tour.

The tour, which celebrates the life of Fred Astaire, sold out in 2017.

Its 2018 run kicks off in Leamington Spa on March 29 and runs through until May 28, when it wraps with a final show in Portsmouth.
