Strictly Come Dancing's Graziano di Prima and his fiancée Giana Lini have welcomed the most adorable addition to their family ahead of their summer wedding – a miniature Pinscher toy dog.

The professional dancer shared the first picture of their new pet dog on Saturday and asked his more than 100,000 followers to help him name him. "Rio or Romolo," he asked his fans.
