“Dancing with the Stars” champion Robert Irwin just revealed his next move after winning the season 34 Mirrorball trophy. On January 6, the DWTS winner took to social media to share his excitement, and fans loved it.
Robert Irwin Is Ready to Feed the Crocodiles Again
Irwin revealed he was about to touch down back home in Australia. This is the first time he’s been back home and working since his triumphant “Dancing with the Stars” win.
In the video, he excitedly shared, “Guys, I’m about to touch down back into Australia, and you know what that means.” To Irwin, that means jumping back into hanging out with the crocodiles.
As Irwin talked, clips of him feeding the crocodiles at the Australia Zoo played. He chose the classic AC/DC song “Back in Black” to accompany the croc clips.
He and his extended family, which includes his sister, former “Dancing with the Stars” champion Bindi Irwin, her husband, Chandler Powell, and their mom, Terri Irwin, run the Australia Zoo. His father, the late Steve Irwin, known as the “Crocodile Hunter,” played a pivotal role in the zoo’s early successes.
The latest Mirrorball champion shared that beginning January 8, he would be back at work at the zoo. “I cannot wait to see you,” Irwin gushed.
“It’s been a while. It’s about time,” Irwin declared. He noted, “It’s going to be my first time feeding the crocodiles in about five months.”
Irwin then joked, “What could possibly go wrong? Gonna wanna keep the cameras rolling.”
DWTS Fans Are Excited for Irwin & Want Him to Stay Safe
The top comment on Irwin’s Instagram post was from his mother, who wrote, “Woo-hoo!” and added a crocodile emoji.
A fan noted, “Bro is grinning ear to ear you can tell he missed it lolll.”
Someone else joked, “Cross checking flight costs and bank balance. BRB [Be Right Back].”
Another fan commented, “And just like that Australia Zoo clientele demographic just shifted from children and families to women of every age lol.”
“Everybody knock on every piece of wood that you can,” suggested an additional fan, in a light-hearted effort to keep Irwin safe.
On TikTok, a fan quipped, “Just don’t forget where you are and try and lift one and spin it over your head.” This was surely a cute reference to his “Dancing with the Stars” moves with partner Witney Carson.
As several “Dancing with the Stars” fans noted on Irwin’s posts, Carson’s family is about to head to Australia for a visit.
Fans cannot wait to see Carson and Irwin reunite and watch her sons take in the crocodiles and other animals at the Australia Zoo.
