Recalling the sweet moment, she went on: “We all picked names and laughed and cried and it has been so special and she is due next month”.
More recently, in an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Bindi addressed ways for her baby to be introduced to her father Steve.
Bindi said: “I don’t think we would’ve ever seen our daughter.
“He would’ve just whisked her away into the zoo and it would’ve been perfect.
“But it is so nice that we’ll be able to introduce her to her grandfather through all of the documentaries. It’s really special.”
