Gemma Atkinson shared an adorable photo of Strictly Come Dancing star Aljaž Škorjanec introducing his baby to her and Gorka Márquez's son.
Now that it's officially Strictly season, fans have been getting endless content from the professional dancers, their spouses and their new celebrity dance partners. Earlier this week, Gemma - who met Aljaž when she partnered up with him during her Strictly stint in 2017 - took to her Instagram page to post a sweet snap of the baby meeting.
In one snap, Aljaž held up Gemma and Gorka's son Thiago while Gemma held up Aljaž and his wife Janette Manrara's daughter Lyra. She wrote in the caption as she raved over the babies: "When Thiago met Lyra…. Future dance partners of which all their skill set in dance, will be from me."
