Steve Irwin’s daughter reduced her fans to tears as she posted a moving tribute to her late dad on Instagram.
Bindi Irwin, 21 got married to her beau Chandler Powell, 23 last month.
She recently shared a heartfelt post about her beloved husband Chandler, and in her Instagram speech she paid tribute to her dad, the Crocodile Hunter, who was tragically killed nearly 14 years ago.
Bindi shared a wedding photograph alongside her hubby, with the couple gazing into each others loving eyes in the sweet snap.

In the moving post, Bindi paid tribute to her late dad, referring to advice he gave her when she was young.
Bindi said in the caption: “My dad used to say that I couldn’t marry anyone unless he could swim across the croc pond first. And now, here you are, helping us during our regular crocodile demonstrations.”
She continued with her loving message to her now-husband: “Chandler, When I went to write my vows I found I couldn’t stop writing them. I started by sharing all the ways you make my life beautiful and wrote close to a thousand words. Then I moved on to write about what an extraordinary person you are and I needed a new pen.
“Finally I wanted to share all my hopes for the future and I ran out of notebook paper. I thought about how there is no way to describe genuine, unconditional love. A love like this is meant to be felt, in every part of our soul.
“Marriage marks an incredible beginning and yet I feel like we’ve already experienced so much life together. We say all the time that it feels like we’ve been married for years. We’ve been a team through life’s wonderful highs and difficult lows. You’ve held my hand as we’ve run towards every new adventure.”
Bindi also mentioned Chandler’s job at Australia Zoo, with his role being something her father used to do.

She said: “One of your jobs is to jump into the water with our biggest crocs to help encourage them home! They say there’s a moment when you know you’ve fallen in love with someone, for me it was watching you happily jump in the water with a 15 foot crocodile and then tell me how much you enjoyed it. You are my soulmate. I promise to love you with all my heart through every twist and turn the world brings our way….”
The couple tied the knot at Australia Zoo, but as it was during the coronavirus pandemic, they only had a few family members attend the heartwarming ceremony.
