Robert Irwin turns 'red' over cheeky comments: 'I'm gone'

Bindi Irwin’s brother, Robert Irwin, could not hide his embarrassment this week as he faced some "racy" fan comments on his Instagram.

According to Daily Mail, in an interview with comedian Jimmy Rees, the 21-year-old read comments from his recent post.

Jimmy asked the wildlife conservationist if he ever replies to fans and went on to tell him to react to comments under a photo shoot he did with Stellar magazine.

Responding to the host, Robert said, “I don't really look at comments, especially not for something like this.”

The Growing Up Wild star then read the comments out loud, as one person wrote, “Dude is out here fishing with dynamite, it's just not fair lol.”

Another scribbled, “I never thought I would be a cougar but here we are.”

“I've never wanted to be a crocodile so bad before,” the third commented.

The fourth penned, “Anyone else just realise they're a cougar?”

After reading the fourth comment, Robert jokingly quipped with a red face, “Like the animal? That's what they're talking about, right?”

Pointing at a red lounge, he stated, “Oh my gosh, I'm gone. I'm redder than this.”

“And that is why I don't look at my comments,” the Wild Times star highlighted.

It is pertinent to mention that this came after Robert Irwin arrived in South Africa earlier this month to film the new season of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!
