Janette Manrara, 39, and her husband Aljaz Skorjanec, 33, are enjoying as much time as possible at their new home with their newborn daughter Lyra Rose amid their very busy schedules.

On Thursday, their new property became the backdrop for a shoot as Janette created content for Strictly: It Takes Two, and she even took the opportunity to welcome fans into her impressive walk-in wardrobe.

Janette was alongside stylist Gayle Rinkoff as she spoke to the camera from inside her clothing haven. In addition to their bumper shelves brimming with clothes, Gayle wheeled in a jam-packed rail for Janette to try outfits on ahead of her filming.

As expected, the rail was filled with colour, sequins and even feathers – and Janette looked very excited to start the trying on process.

The couple haven't been in their new abode long, having relocated to Cheshire to bring their child up in a more rural area after residing in London as a couple.

"It's something both of us have craved for a while," Alijaz told HELLO!. "The pace of life in London is too fast and we couldn't see us functioning here as a family. It’s so green up north, it reminds me of Slovenia."

The property includes a stunning open plan kitchen-diner, a vast and secluded kitchen and an adorable nursery for baby Lyra.

The couple worked with Dove Interiors to create the perfect room for their baby. When the brand showcased the space on Instagram, it sparked major reaction.

"Absolutely beautiful," penned one, and: "Beautiful! My dream!" added another. A third noted: "The black furniture is nice," pointing out Janette and Aljaz's unique dark nursery choices. Others left love heart eyed emojis in the comments, expressing their feelings.

Janette and Aljaz first announced news of their daughter's arrival on 28 July with a touching black and white photo from hospital.
