Aljaz has returned to the ballroom for this series, and Janette confessed that their relationship has taken a new turn since his comeback, reports .
She revealed: “I feel like I’ve fallen in love with him all over again! I fell in love watching him dance, so now watching him dance again – because when we met we went dancing together – now, when I see him back on the screen dancing, I’m like, ‘Oh, I fancy him again!'”
Now that both are working on the show again, they have had to juggle their professional commitments with their personal life.

She detailed their routine, sharing: “We are commuting so the plan is that Lyra and I go down to London on Wednesday and we stay Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with Aljaz in London and then we come back home on Saturday …
Recounting a recent weekend, she shared: “I went to watch Strictly on Saturday night in the studio. I really wanted to watch the first ‘Icons Week’ and it was incredible so I’m so glad I was there for it. Then on Sunday we had Robin’s remembrance show, The Final Act. It was quite an emotional Sunday.
“We’ve just been cuddling all day, [to Lyra] haven’t we? I try not to be on my phone when I’m with her because I don’t like her seeing me on my phone. I want her to know she’s got Mommy’s attention so it’s a bit harder for me to post and get things done when I’m with her. But we’ve been having amazing days… I just wanted to pop on and say hello.”
