Yahoo News BBC Strictly Come Dancing Janette Manrara's fans share same 'can't believe' response after 'trouble' warning
Fans were left sharing Janette Manrara's bewilderment at how quickly time seems to be going as she shared an update ahead of her daughter's big milestone. The dancer and presenter welcomed her first child into the world last July with her husband Aljaz Skorjanec.
The former Strictly Come Dancing pro dancers announced their daughter Lyra Rose Skorjanec's arrival on July 29 in a social media post featuring a black and white photo showing the family of three for the first time after their bundle of joy arrived via C-section in a London hospital.
They have since been keeping their fans and followers updated on their new lives with their little one in tow, as well as letting them know about her progress.

It means that those who follow Janette and Aljaz have watched Lyra grow in front of their eyes and in Janette's latest post, her fans were just as stunned to realise a year had flown by since she was thrown a gorgeous surprise baby shower.
Strictly co-star and fellow pro dancer Katya Jones and former Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts joined forced to organise the very special Winne the Pooh inspired event for their friend. At the time, Janette revealed: "@iamashleyroberts @katyajones & my sister @missleslymarie back home, along w/an epic baby shower committee, organised the most beautiful afternoon!
"And the best part, they flew my mom over from Miami as a surprise! I had no idea! And @aljazskorjanec sister @laraljubic came from Slovenia as well, just for the day!" She added: "I have never felt more lucky and loved! Thank you does not say enough how grateful I am for my amazing friends & family."
And this week, she marked a year since the beautiful surprise took place and shared a sweet group snap from the special day. "A year ago since this most magical afternoon full of love for little Lyra!" Janette said. "Such a beautiful baby shower. Cannot believe how fast this first year w/ her has gone! So grateful to have such wonderful friends that took the time for this epic surprise!"
Janette's friends and followers were then quick to respond. Katya replied: "It really was such a beautiful day!! Soon celebrating Lyra’s first birthday." Strictly's creative director Jason Gilkinson responded: "Omg - has that been a year? Such a gorgeous day." Makeup artist Summer Dyason commented: "Can’t believe this was just a year ago."
Friend Ash-Leigh Hunter shared: "Wow a year ago! Such a beautiful day." @allthingskps_ wrote: "I can't believe how quickly she has grown! I hope you had the best time." @ilovejanettex added: "How quick has that year passed. Such special memories."
It comes after Janette was hilariously warned of trouble as she enjoyed a reunion with Katya, who seemingly enjoyed a play date with Lyra as she visited them at their Cheshire home. "Girls night in w/ @katyajones!" Janette captioned the images, with the first showing the trio could be seen smiling for the camera."
In response, @ilovejanettex said: "Girls night. How very cute." @evex.mcclurex wrote: "Aww so cute." @sezagirl joked: "Uhoh! bet there's gonna be trouble when Auntie Kat is in town!" @juliemartin7709 commented: "Stop it! She is just adorable." @mushy284 added: "Beautiful Lara, she is adorable. Girls just want to have fun ha ha."
