Pregnant Janette Manrara shows off bronzed bump in lacy underwear after husband Alijaz shares intimate scan moment and gets same comment

Janette Manrara was seen getting a golden glow on her baby bump as she basked in the sun while awaiting the arrival of her first child. The former Strictly Come Dancing pro headed into the garden of her new Cheshire home to soak up some rays as the country continues to bask in its current heatwave.

Janette, who is expecting her first child with her fellow ex-Strictly star husband Aljaž Škorjanec this summer after sharing the joyful news back in February, could be seen lounging on a sunlounger while sporting a gorgeous lacy underwear set that bared her blossoming baby bump.

Janette looked radiant as the sun shined down on her in the video posted to her Instagram Story. She could be seen running her hands across her growing stomach while she was also seen sporting a stylish sunhat to give her some protection from the burning rays. "Outside in the garden getting soem vitamin D," she typed alongside the clip adding a sun emoji.

It comes after Aljaž shared the intimate moment he and his wife headed to a scan, resulting in him sharing a 4D picture of his unborn for the first time.

The dancer shared the picture to his Instagram page, showing Janette smiling with her bump on display as she lay on the doctor's bed while their unborn child could be seen on the screen in front of them.

"In a room with Three Cubans this morning," Aljaž captioned the post which was quickly flooded with messages of support to the couple, who have been married since 2017, with some also attempting to guess the baby's gender. However, it was Strictly star Gorka Marquez, who is also eagerly awaiting the arrival of his second child, who was the first to respond, writing: "Too cute… almost time."

@carolines_cat_is.a.greyhound shared: "Omg the baby face is just like Aljaz." @bickers1 replied: "Awwww @jmanrara your bump is soooo cute." @z.chan16 posted: "OMG. This is everything! So cute." @clairebull79 typed: "Too cute, can’t wait to see the mini Aljaz and Janette." @l1hwr66 added: "Such a beautiful view and how neat is that bump. The best."

Janette also shared the same picture herself on her own Instagram page, writing: "Little one is growing well and healthy!" This time it was Gorka's fiancee Gemma Atkinson who was first to comment as she simply replied: "Yay!" with two red heart emojis. Former Strictly winner Ore Oduba also commented: "Look at you," with a string of love heart eyes emojis.

Janette and Aljaž announced the wonderful news they were expecting back in February with their bundle of joy due this summer. Aljaz and Janette, who has since gone on to host the spin-off of the BBC One show, were just about to start IVF treatment when they found out Janette was pregnant.

"We’re so happy to share our special news!" the pair wrote on Instagram earlier this year alongside a picture from their Hello! magazine shoot confirming their happy news as the congratulatory messages came flooding in.
