Robert Irwin sparks major buzz with secret new relationship

Australian conservationist, TV personality, zookeeper, wildlife photographer, and actor, Robert Irwin, is reportedly keeping his new romance under wraps.

For the unversed, the 21-year-old has been linked to a new girlfriend nearly a year after breaking up with Rorie Buckey.

Robert has kept his dating life private since becoming single, but it is now said that he is dating an unnamed woman in secret.

An insider told Woman’s Day by revealing, “He seems smitten and not as secretive about this relationship as he picked up a gift for her prior to Christmas.”

The source told the outlet that the Wild Times star has been seeing the “secret” woman since November this year and is waiting for his mother, Teri Irwin, to approve of her before introducing her to the public.

“Robert knows that if this relationship is to work that it is better to have both Terri and Bindi on board before taking the relationship public,” the insider added.

It went on to claim that the star of Growing Up Wild is planning to officially introduce his new romance later in January.

Notably, per Daily Mail, Robert was associated with Australia Zoo worker Charlotte Briggs after they were spotted together on multiple outings.

Moreover, in July 2024, there were rumors that the couple was dating when they were seen looking close while arriving in Sydney together.

Later, Robert and Charlotte were caught checking into a luxury hotel in Sydney, where they were also joined by Terri.

It is noteworthy to mention that Charlotte is a renowned name in the world of cricket and was part of the Queensland team, the Sunshine Coast Scorchers, from 2020 to 2021.
