Bindi’s romance with Powell has captivated fans of the Irwin family since July 2019 when the two announced their engagement. From what fans have heard of the couple, it often seems like Bindi and Powell are a match made in heaven. Take the couple’s wedding as an example. Although the global pandemic forced Bindi and Powell to change some of their arrangements, they still managed to have what seemed like a magical wedding in the gardens of the Australia Zoo in Queensland on March 25, 2020. Their ceremony even included a koala — not to mention a beautiful floral arrangement.

The 22-year-old Bindi gave birth to her first child, Grace Warrior Irwin Powell, on March 25, 2021, which she and Powell, 24, announced to the world on social media. The couple’s announcement soon went viral as Irwin fans from around the world heard the news. As if the birth of the animal-loving couple’s first baby wasn’t special enough, Bindi and Powell revealed that Grace was also born on their first wedding anniversary.

Since that special day, both Irwin and her husband have been keeping fans up to date via social media, posting photos (and a video) with the newborn regularly.

This time, Bindi Irwin has shared a sweet video of her baby girl laying down with tortoises. 

When Grace was born, Bindi broke the news a day later on Instagram. The heartfelt post included a photo of Powell and Bindi holding their newborn together, as well as a second photo of Grace’s first outfit and an information card with details about the birth.

“Her middle names, Warrior Irwin, are a tribute to my dad and his legacy as the most incredible Wildlife Warrior,” she continues. “Her last name is Powell and she already has such a kind soul just like her dad. There are no words to describe the infinite amount of love in our hearts for our sweet baby girl. She chose the perfect day to be born and we feel tremendously blessed.”

Bindi and Powell first announced that they were expecting a child on Aug. 11, 2020, in a surprise post to their social media accounts. At the time, Bindi said that she was still somewhere in her first trimester.

She updated fans on Instagram again on Sept. 22, 2020, writing that she and Powell were expecting a baby girl. The 22-year-old star posted the announcement alongside a photo of herself, her husband, a giant Aldabra tortoise, and a sonogram of their unborn child.

According to CNN, Bindi, who has become a conservationist and television star in the spirit of her late father Steve Irwin, married then-24-year-old Powell on March 25, 2020. In keeping with the family’s love for animals, Bindi and Powell held the secret wedding in the gardens of Australia Zoo in Queensland. As bizarre and unusual as that may seem, the zoo still belongs to the Irwin family — in fact, the family lives there together — as it’s the same facility that Bindi’s grandparents opened in the 1970s. And now, it’s become the place where Bindi and Powell tied the knot.

Days after the then-21-year-old Bindi tied the knot at the candlelit zoo wedding in Queensland, Australia, Bindi’s mother reflected on the fact that her husband didn’t get the chance to see their daughter married.

The late Australian zookeeper, Steve, was best known for his charming role on the show “The Crocodile Hunter.” He died in 2006 at the age of 44 after a stingray pierced his chest while the star was filming a documentary, according to CNN. 

The 44-year-old father’s death led to an outpouring of support from fans, environmentalists and friends of the idiosyncratic television host. Steve’s show, “The Crocodile Hunter,” was so successful that it appeared in more than 100 countries on cable television. The star was also a frequent guest on talk shows like “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno” to “Live With Regis and Kelly.” He is perhaps most remembered for his enthusiastic catch phrases like “Check out the size of this bloke!”, “Whew, he’s getting cranky!”, “Isn’t she a beauty?” and “Crikey!”

Since 2018, Bindi has amassed a following of her own fans partly through her appearances on the Australian reality television show “Crikey! It's the Irwins.” Robert and Terri — and now Powell — also appear on the show, showcasing their lives as they care for animals at the Australia Zoo.

To honor her father's khaki style, Bindi posted a photo of her baby Grace in her very first khakis to her Instagram on Sunday. In honor of the baby's one-month milestone, baby Grace is seen kicking her feet and in a pajama set with her own khaki button-up on top. Multiple small tortoises are seen crawling above her head on the blanket. Bindi and Chandler's journey throughout parenthood was documented on the "Crikey! It's a Baby!" Discovery series that also premiered on Sunday.
