Janette Manrara addresses struggles with Strictly pro husband Aljaz Skorjanec: ‘It’s very difficult’

Little Lyra's health and happiness comes first, Janette said

Strictly star Janette Manrara has opened up about the “difficulties” she’s facing as husband Aljaz Skorjanec returns to the BBC dance show.

Aljaz’s return was announced after Giovanni Pernice‘s exit from the show was revealed, with many fans hoping Aljaz’s presence would provide some welcome good news for the scandal-hit show.

With the launch show set to take place in less than two weeks, and with Aljaz surely guaranteed a celebrity partner, family life with Janette and daughter Lyra, one, will have to come second for the next couple of months.

Janette Manrara and Aljaz face ‘difficult’ time

Speaking to OK!, Janette shared how childcare when they’re both working can be a struggle.

Janette, who presents Strictly: It Takes Two, is from Miami, and all her family are based there. Aljaz is from Slovenia, so his relatives are out of the country, too.

As a result, Janette admits it’s a juggle, with the pair desperate to make it work for their young family.
