Never seen before snap: How Robert Irwin hilariously helped prep for Bindi’s big proposal
Bindi and Chandler only just tied the knot in an intimate and emotional private ceremony last week at Australia Zoo, but it has only just been revealed that Robert Irwin played a big role in helping his brother-in-law prep for the big proposal.
Chandler initially met his wife in 2013 after his family took a tour of the famous Australian Zoo that has become a national treasure thanks to Bindi’s dad, Croc hunter Steve Irwin.
From there, the couple fell in love and last year on Bindi’s 21st birthday, Chandler popped down on one knee and asked his long-term girlfriend to marry him. The moment was one that the 21-year-old Australian conservationist labelled as the “most beautiful surprise.”
The special moment was elevated by the help of her little brother Robert who secretly photographed his family’s intimate proposal.
“We were in the gardens of Australia Zoo and it was beyond perfect. I never even knew Robert was there photographing and I’ll always be grateful to have these special memories of the most amazing day of my life.”
However, a reddit post has shared a hilarious gaffe between Robert and Chandler.
The photograph featured Powell getting on one knee with his arms outstretched to none other than Rob.
The caption of the post reads: “If you’re in need of wholesome content, Robert Irwin helped Bindi’s now husband practice the proposal.”

It appears the snap of Rob and Chandler mucking around originates from the family’s show Crikey! It’s The Irwins.
The post amassed over 800 comments after just 24 hours online, with one writing: Talk about a wholesome family. The Irwins never fail to impress me with their positivity and genuine spirit. I'm grateful for them right now especially.”
Another added: “They're basically our version of a royal family.”
Chandler took to social media to share a photograph of Bindi cosying up to a koala in her arms.
“My beautiful wife,” he wrote, alongside a love heart emoji.
It was just last week that he first took to social media since tying the knot with his bride to write: “We’re finally married! Today, March 25, 2020, marks the most amazing day of my life. I married my best friend.”
“After almost a year of planning, we changed everything so that we could enjoy a safe and small private ceremony at our home, Australia Zoo. As we embark on this new life chapter I hope that we can share some love in the world, especially during this challenging time.”
