Strictly Come Dancing favourite Janette Manrara has revealed she’s heading back to host BBC’s Morning Live.
The dancer shot to fame when she joined the glitzy dancing show back in 2013. After 8 years, Janette quit the programme
But it’s fair to say she has remained booked and busy since – from hosting It Strictly spin-off, Takes Two, to currently playing Roxie Hart in the Chicago UK Tour.
And this week, Janette left her fans delighted when she revealed she was heading back to front an episode of Morning Live next week.
