Terri Irwin has opened up about her life together with her late husband Steve Irwin.

Known all over the world as the ‘Crocodile Hunter’, Steve tragically died in 2006 after being struck by a stingray while filming on the Great Barrier Reef.

In a new interview, an emotional Terri, 60, shared details about her 14-year marriage to the famed conservationist and admitted she wishes he was still here.

‘I think the best part [of our marriage] was just the fun and the adventure,’ Terri told Us Weekly magazine on Monday.

‘Steve was probably the most spontaneous person. Everyone says live every day to its fullest, but we never quite do that every day.

‘And Steve really, really did. I think there really isn’t a word in our language for the opposite of a procrastinator, but that was Steve. He was such a “do it now guy”.’

Elsewhere in the chat, the grandmother celebrated her children Bindi, 26, and Robert, 21, as well as her four-year-old granddaughter Grace Warrior.

‘My life is very full and very rich,’ she said, adding sadly, ‘and every day, I wish Steve was here, but I’m so lucky.’

It comes after the Irwin family paid tribute to the Crocodile Hunter at The Steve Irwin Gala in Las Vegas.

The event is held annually in both Brisbane and Las Vegas, honouring the life and work of the conservationist.

However, Bindi and Terri were forced to miss the gala event last week after Bindi was rushed to surgery following a ruptured appendix.

The event features a three-course meal and is an annual celebration of the life and legacy of the famed wildlife warrior.

Funds raised from the gala support Wildlife Warriors, the conservation charity Steve and Terri founded in 2002.

The event has become a cornerstone of the Irwin family’s ongoing mission to champion animal welfare and environmental protection.

With infectious smiles and their unwavering passion for wildlife, the Irwin’s once again proved that Steve’s spirit lives on.

The gala dinner is one of the Irwin’s most highly anticipated social events of the year.

Last year, Robert gushed over his close bond with his mother Terri and sister Bindi, revealing the tragic loss of Steve brought them all closer together.

‘I think loss brings a family together like nothing else… people forget [that],’ Robert said during an interview on The Kyle and Jackie O Show.

‘I think when we lost dad, our little tight-knit family unit became incredibly tight.

‘And we travel with the whole family everywhere most of the time. It’s nice.’

Robert was just two years old when Steve died while his sister Bindi was six years of age.

It was Steve’s father, Bob, who built the iconic Australia Zoo from the ground up in 1970 and passed it on to his late son and his wife Terri in 1992.
