As a child, Robert Irwin watched his older sister Bindi Irwin compete on “Dancing With the Stars” Season 21. She was partnered with professional dancer Derek Hough, and the pair won that season. Bindi has since spoken about what an incredible experience being on the show was, and Robert is also hoping to have a positive journey. Still, he’s nervous, having never done anything like this before.
“I’m just going to get real for a second, I’m so nervous,” the wildlife conservationist told Us Weekly in an interview published on May 18. “I’m really nervous.”
We know Bindi can dance, but can Robert? Audiences will soon discover this when Season 34 airs in fall 2025, likely in September. But Bindi believes it will not be her brother’s dancing skills that will over audiences, but his attitude to the whole process.“You can learn to dance, but the genuine passion, dedication, determination that comes from within, and that’s what I think will set you apart, because you genuinely are a really good human,” she told Us Weekly. She also praised her brother for his rhythm and for the “wonderful” person he is. “He has nothing to be worried about,” she added.The way these siblings speak about each other with kindness and respect highlights their close bond.
