Strictly Come Dancing stars Janette Manrara and Aljaz Skorjanec left fans feeling emotional over their reunion with one of their former colleagues in Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

Strictly spin-off host and former pro dancer Janette and her husband Aljaz, who is still a Strictly, pro, have been touring the country with a brand new tour \u2018Let\u2019s Face The Music And Dance!\u2019.<\/p>\n

After kicking off the shows in York on Saturday, April 18, Janette and Aljaz made their way to Scottish capital. While there, they met up with former Strictly pro Kevin Clifton, reports Manchester Evening News.<\/a><\/p>\n

He was a fan favourite on the BBC series from 2013 to 2019, appearing in every final of the show in all bar two seasons in that period. He famously won Strictly for the first time in 2018 with his celebrity partner Stacey Dooley, who he has been in a relationship with since 2019.<\/p>\n
