Janette Manrara and husband Aljaz Skorjanec welcomed their baby daughter Lyra back in July, and on Thursday, Janette made a small return to work with a stint on Morning Live.
Aljaz remained home on childcare duties, and he had a full house as he also looked after his nieces, Zala and Tisa. The professional dancer made sure the youngsters and baby Lyra tuned in to watch Janette putting her best foot forward on the daytime show.
In a heart-melting image shared on Instagram, Aljaz had made sure to prop Lyra's head up with his hand so she could see her mum presenting the show. Zala and Tisa were also transfixed on the screen as Janette spoke to her audience.
The mum-of-one shared other photos from her time back in the studios, including a glimpse of her stunning floral dress as she sat in her dressing home. The cream dress featured an eye-catching pattern of green shoots, and she accessorised with a necklace and bracelet. Janette also shared a fun photo of herself reuniting with her Morning Live co-stars, including Gethin Jones and Rav Wilding.

"So special to know that they were all watching together at home! This photo melted my heart. I cannot wait cuddle her all day now! To all the working moms out there…. You're incredible and we've got this."

Speaking about her return, she said: "Yes, I am back. I guess there wasn't a huge official announcement, but yeah, I'm back! Luckily, I had more than enough time on maternity leave with Lyra for me to be able to come back and do the show."
And on her new co-star, she added: "I will be on the couch along with Fleur interviewing all of your couples and I can't wait actually. I literally can't wait. It was such an amazing year last year, but I feel like every year is just as great."
Strictly recently confirmed that its launch show will be airing on 16 September, and we can't wait to see who the celebs will be paired with. Competing this year are Waterloo Road star Adam Thomas, actress Amanda Abbington, TV legends Angela Scanlon and Angela Rippon alongside tennis star Annabel Croft.
