After all, the young man is a carbon copy of his late father. We wrote a whole article showing the similarities between them.

Bindi said that she’ll try her best to honor Steve Irwin on her wedding day, to make it feel like he’s there during her special day.

“I really wanted Dad to be a big part of the day, so I’m excited to be able to incorporate him throughout the ceremony and the reception, and I think it’s going to be really special because I feel like his spirit lives on in us,’ she told US Weekly.

Robert also participated in the couple’s engagement. Weeks before Chandler proposed to Bindi, Robert had helped him to prepare for the special moment. The hilarious photo shared on Jimmy Fallon’s show, shows Chandler practicing his proposal on Robert. The young man jokingly said that the moment was the ‘happiest day of his life’.

During the proposal, which happened on Bindi’s birthday, Robert’s assignment was to sneakily take photos of the proposal. And he did an excellent job, after all, he’s a keen photographer.

I remember when Bindi was born. Steve was one of my favorite people and partially responible for me becoming a Zoologist. I felt devestated when he died, but I'm sure it was nothing compared to how his family felt. The world lost a true hero of conservation, but Teri, Bindi and Robert continue his legacy. I'm sure he would be so proud of them all and proud to have Robert walk his sister down the isle in his place. Congrats to Bindi and Chandler!

Steve helped many of us to follow what we want. Still remember the moment I've heard of his passing
