Robert Irwin and Witney Carson’s Enduring Friendship
In January, shortly after their partnership earned them a DWTS mirrorball trophy, Robert Irwin invited Witney Carson and her family to visit him at the Australia Zoo.
Carson, her husband Carson McAllister and sons Leo and Jet, traveled down under to visit Irwin at his home down under. It was the first time the family had traveled to the country and they had a blast. Carson documented their adventures via Instagram.
In one of her posts, she shared a slideshow of images including the McCallister family and Irwin posing with lemurs. In one video, she fed the animals while a water dragon sat her feet.
Another snapshot showed Irwin feeding a carrot to a nearby giraffe, while Leo looked on in wonder.
DWTS is currently on hiatus. The series typically begins its new season in the fall.
