The Strictly stars, who are married, revealed that they had boarded a flight to Rio de Janeiro on Saturday and will be in the beautiful city for the infamous carnival parade, how exciting! Aljaz share a snap of himself sitting in a luxurious American Airlines plane seat, straw hat and all, and added the caption: "And we're off!

The couple's getaway comes just days after Aljaz celebrated his 30th birthday surrounded by friends at an exclusive Knightsbridge venue. Excitingly, the birthday boy treated his followers to a glimpse inside the celebrations, sharing three snaps of the night on Instagram. 

In the first photo, Aljaz can be seen posing next to an incredible display of palm leaves adorned with Aljaz's name and the name of this friend, James Carney, who he shared his birthday celebrations with.

The second snap shared by Aljaz showed off his incredible two-tier birthday cake, which was covered in navy blue icing and topped with adorable panda bears and bamboo leaves. 

Perhaps most excitingly of all, though, in his third photo, the dancer shared a glimpse of 30 Pavilion Road's jaw-dropping interiors, uploading a snap of a grand fireplace topped with flowers. A beautiful, old-fashioned portrait painting hung above the fireplace, and the room was covered in chic peacock wallpaper. We wonder if Aljaz and Janette's Rio holiday will be as glamourous…
