Nearly five months after taking home a mirrorball trophy during DWTS Season 34, Robert Irwin is bringing a touch of ballroom magic to Australia Zoo.
The wildlife conservationist is sharing his dance journey with visitors to his family’s animal refuge through a new exhibit. The display offers a closer look at his time on the series, complete with memorable moments and personal highlights.
Robert Irwin Called His DWTS Experience a ‘Life Changing Journey’
In a new Instagram video, Robert Irwin reflected on his DWTS experience. He called Season 34 a “life-changing journey.”
Irwin captioned the clip, “So proud that now there are two mirrorballs at Australia Zoo now! Thanks for inspiring me to take that life-changing journey, Bindi Irwin.”
In the video, Irwin takes fans through a special exhibit of his and his sister Bindi Irwin’s DWTS experiences and wins. These iconic moments occurred a decade apart.
He explained, “I’m back at Australia Zoo, and I wanted to show you something. This is Bindi’s mirrorball and the dress she wore for the finale of DWTS.”
“And right here is Witney and I and our mirrorball for our season of DWTS. And the outfit I wore for the finale.”
Irwin continued, “We are right across from each other. Plus, how cool is it that that’s a very similar outfit to Bindi’s? We were wearing the same color spectrum, 10 years apart.”
“Next time you come visit Australia Zoo, keep an eye out,” Irwin concluded, pointing to the wall-sized photograph of the night he won the reality competition series.
