Robert Irwin captured hearts around the globe with his debut as the host of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! as curiosity grows around the star’s relationship status, HELLO! takes a closer look at Robert Irwin’s dating history.

In an interview with People back in April, the son of the late Steve Irwin confirmed he was single. “I’m single. It’s funny, I’m at this point in my life where I’m like, I’m so open to that, but I’m just waiting for the stars to align,” he shared.

However, the Australian conversationalist gave the publication an insight into where he thinks he may meet his future partner. “Interestingly, my parents, my sister Bindi met her husband [Chandler Powell]. Everyone met here at our wildlife sanctuary,” he explained.

“I look at the couple goals in my life. I look at when my brother-in-law Chandler and my sister Bindi met, it was just meant to be, and when my mum and dad met, it was this crazy serendipitous, amazing moment that just was a fluke.”

He continued: “In both instances, there were American tourists that were coming over and visiting the zoo, so I’m waiting. I’m waiting for that American tourist to come into the zoo and for it all to happen!”

Robert’s former girlfriend was also a hit with his family as his sister, Bindi Irwin, gushed over Rorie on Instagram in October 2023. “My brother’s gorgeous girlfriend, @roriebuckey. Sweetest soul, beautiful friend, I love her dearly and you’ll usually see [Bindi’s daughter] Grace just following her around because she adores her.”

However the couple released a joint statement in February 2024 to announce their split after 18 months together. “We wanted to share that we have decided to go our separate ways but profoundly appreciate all of the time spent together and wish one another the very best into the future,” they wrote on social media.

“We wish to express the gratitude and respect we have for one another as we continue our journeys on different paths.”
