New parents Janette Manrara and Aljaz Skorjanec found time for a leisurely alfresco lunch on Wednesday, despite welcoming their daughter Lyra only two weeks ago.
On Thursday, the Strictly Come Dancing star decided to share a snap from their gorgeous lunch on Instagram, where they were joined by Janette's loving parents.
Alongside the smiley snap, Janette penned: "Lunch in the garden yesterday. Mom was the photographer so she’s missing in the photo. Been so incredible to have my parents home. Lyra is getting to know her grandparents, and Mami and Ati (“Ati” means “Dad” in Slovenian) are getting a break from cooking and cleaning, and even getting some extra sleep. Such beautiful memories being made together as a family."
The image showed Janette cuddling her father and Aljaz on the other side of their glass-topped outdoor dining table. Above them was a matching parasol, perfect for shading the sun and there was also a gorgeous bunch of flowers brightening up the tablescape.
A monochrome rug had been placed on the grass for the occasion, within the couple's vast family garden with wooden fences all around.
In May, the former It Takes Two presenter shared a look at their garden from the vantage point of the window to showcase the beautiful sunset. "Always think of The Lion King when I see this view," wrote the, alongside a Lion King emoji, referring to the beautiful scene below.
The couple's garden isn't overlooked at all and beyond the fence picturesque trees can be seen.
They haven't long been in their dream home, after relocating from London to Cheshire for a quieter life.
