Her journey took a new turn when she met Chandler Powell, a professional wakeboarder, leading to a beautiful marriage and the birth of their daughter, Grace Warrior.
As the couple continue to mark their family’s latest milestones, we explore the heartwarming details of Bindi’s personal life, from how she and Chandler met to the joys and milestones of raising their young daughter.
How did Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell meet?
Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell’s love story began in 2013 when Powell, a competitive wakeboarder from the United States, visited the Irwin’s Australia Zoo.
Powell’s admiration for Bindi’s work with wildlife sparked a connection, and they soon began dating. Their relationship blossomed over their newfound shared interests and mutual passion for wildlife, with Powell now participating in the Irwin family’s crocodile shows and zoo performances.
Despite the long-distance aspect of their early relationship, with Powell living in Florida and Irwin in Australia, their couple’s bond only grew stronger.
Six years after their first meeting, the pair announced their engagement in July 2019, and in March 2020, they married in a private ceremony at Australia Zoo.
How many children does Bindi Irwin have?
Bindi Irwin and her husband Chandler share one child, daughter Grace.
Responding to fan questions regarding their growing family, the eldest Irwin child shared that the couple intends to raise their daughter as an only child.
“A lot of you may already know, [Bindi] went through a big journey with endometriosis and basically, it was a miracle that we had Grace… We love Grace so much and are revelling in every little moment we have with her, without miracle baby, so we are so happy with our little family of three,” Powell shared in a Q&A on Australia Zoo’s YouTube channel.
Continuing their reflection, Irwin also asked followers to refrain from asking further questions about the couple’s family plans, adding, “I do just want to send it out there that remember to be careful when you ask this question because you never know what’s happening in someone’s life. In a family’s world, everything may seem fine on the outside, and on the inside, their own personal journey might have been filled with turmoil and challenges that you can’t even fathom.”
“We feel very lucky for Grace. She is our beautiful girl, but she will probably be our one child.”
How old is Bindi Irwin’s daughter?
Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell welcomed their first child, a daughter named Grace Warrior Irwin Powell, on March 25, 2021 – making her currently three years old.
Since her birth, Grace has been a central figure in the Irwin family’s social media updates and public appearances. As proud parents of their growing daughter, Bindi and Chandler often share adorable moments and milestones of Grace’s life, reflecting their joy and pride in their growing family.
Reflecting on life with her daughter so far, Irwin told People, “Grace already has such a strong and independent personality. My hope is that she feels supported to undertake and accomplish anything she sets her mind to. I’m incredibly lucky to be her mama, holding her hand as she navigates life until she’s ready to take on the world.”
