Steve Irwin's daughter Bindi is 'discreetly looking for candidates' to date her mother Terri
Terri Irwin has not been romantically linked to anyone since her husband Steve Irwin passed away in 2006.
However, on Thursday, April 23, reports claimed that Terri and Steve's daughter, Bindi Irwin, has decided to play matchmaker and set her mother up on a date. The newly married Bindi wants her mother to find love again and is believed to be looking for potential suitors to take her on a date.
A source shared, "Bindi would love nothing more than to see Terri find a nice guy and settle down," the GLOBE revealed, as reported by Daily Mail. "She's been discreetly asking around and looking for decent candidates who can take her mum out to dinner and get her back into the dating whirl again."
Steve Irwin had passed away in September 2006 at the age of 44 after being pierced in the chest by a stingray barb. At the time, he had been filming a wildlife documentary in Batt Reef in Queensland.
Terri, 55, has spent all her time working and raising her two children, Bindi and Robert in the 14 years since Steve's death, the source added. "It does have an impact on her private life, as she doesn't get much time to relax when she's not working," the source continued.
Terri has been rumored to have been romantically linked to Australian actor Russell Crowe in the past but she has constantly denied the claims and has insisted that they are just friends. In 2017, she had spoken to Access Hollywood and had shared, "In all honesty, he (Russell) and Steve became friends many years ago, and after Steve passed, you find out who your true friends are."
"And Russell has been very loyal as a great friend," she added. On Thursday, Bindi had taken to her Instagram handle to share a picture of herself standing between her parents Terri and Steve. She had captioned the post, "Thank you to my incredible parents for showing me the importance of protecting our Mother Earth."
"They taught me that we are all connected and that we must work together to ensure a bright future for the next generations. We are Wildlife Warriors," the caption read.
We had previously reported that Bindi married her boyfriend Chandler Powell during an intimate ceremony at the Australia Zoo. The couple dated for around six years before they decided to get married. It has been reported earlier that the lovebirds are already planning their first child together.
The pair have already started to build an animal-themed nursery, an insider added. If the pair have a boy, then the couple will reportedly name him after Bindi's late father Steve 'The Crocodile Hunter' Irwin. "For Bindi, losing her father was incredibly hard... so honoring him in this way would mean the world to her," an insider told the publication.
Back in 2019, Bindi had shared with Bang Showbiz, "One day it would be special to have my own little wildlife warriors. I think it's a way away right now, but when it does happen, I can guarantee you they'll have their own khaki because khaki is not just a color, it's an attitude."
