In 2019, Bindi told The Project about the gruelling physical tasks the contestants face in order to perform well on the show . 'It's such a challenge.
I don't think people reality how much work goes on behind the scenes, it's a huge commitment,' she said. During her time on the US version of the show, Bindi danced in front of a black-and-white portrait of her father, Steve Irwin. 'What I think is so wonderful about Dancing With The Stars is that you get to share your journey and your story,' Bindi said.
Bindi took to social media to share her excitement about her brother appearing on the show. 'Robert, you are going to absolutely shine in the ballroom. I wish I could express the magnitude of how proud I am of you and everything you have achieved,' she began.
'Can't wait to cheer you on each week as you inspire so many with your strength, kindness and determination. Here's to an extraordinary journey ahead.'

And, of course, since he's an Irwin, it was only fitting that he posed with live animals in some of the photos - and according to the magazine, most of them were venomous. In one picture, Robert left little to the imagination as he wore a pair of white underwear, giving a smouldering look to the camera as a large snake was wrapped around his neck. He also draped the snake around himself as he sat down in a chair in a pair of black Bonds underwear, showing off his washboard abs.
In another snap, he cuddled with a large lizard, but this time, Robert was more covered up in a casual white tank top and dark teal undies. The photos have since gone viral, with fans from all around the world swooning at the all grown-up Robert.
