Rylan Clark-Neal enjoys a drink with his new Strictly It Takes Two co-host Janette Manrara

They’re preparing to present Strictly Come Dancing‘s It Takes Two for the first time together next week. 

And Rylan Clark-Neal enjoyed a drink with his soon-to-be co-worker Janette Manrara on Friday.  

The TV and radio presenter, 32, took to Instagram to share the pair’s ‘Friyay’ antics, which included what appeared to be a glass of wine for Rylan, and a gin and tonic for Janette.

The dynamic duo beamed as they were pictured cuddling up next to each other on outdoor seating.

Rylan, who rose to fame on The X-Factor nine years ago, later posted an image of himself enjoying a glass of red wine as he stepped on a glitterball, captioning the image: ‘Friyay @iheartwines x’.

It comes after Rylan and Janette Manrara have been seen for the first time together as they prepare to present Strictly Come Dancing’s It Takes Two next week.

Rylan took to Instagram on Tuesday to introduce his ‘new tele wife’ Janette, 37, as he uploaded a never-seen-before photo of the pair in their glitzy Strictly attire.

The former X-Factor star confirmed the former professional dancer as his co-presenter, captioning his glittering upload: ‘Introducing the new tele wife….. we will see you next Monday @jmanrara @bbcstrictly’.

The pair will be co-hosting the show at 6.30pm on Monday to Thursdays, and at 6pm on Fridays.

It comes as the star revealed in June that he and Dan had broken up and told how he was taking a 10-week break from work to prioritise his mental health.

Rylan revealed that he and Dan had split after six years of marriage and made the decision to step back from work.

Taking to Instagram in July, he penned: ‘I just wanted to write a message to thank you all for the love and kindness you have shown us.

‘We are currently prioritising our mental health and looking after the ones around us we love the most. I am working towards getting back to the jobs I love in due course. Thank you for being patient with me X’.
