Pregnant Bindi Irwin Responds to Brother Robert after He Called Her Huge during a TV Interview
Pregnant Bindi Irwin is not letting her brother, Robert, get away with his comment about her on national TV. The 22-year-old took to Twitter to respond to him after being referred to as huge.
Bindi Irwin is the eldest child of wildlife warriors Terri and the late Steve Irwin. The Irwins live beautifully in their Australian zoo, which is also home to many incredible animals like tortoises, crocodiles, and koalas.
The family's patriarch, Steve "The Crocodile Hunter," passed away at age 44. Since then, Terri and her two kids, Robert, and Bindi have been handling the wildlife affairs. Last year, Bindi got married to fellow wildlife enthusiast Chandler Powell.
A few months later, the two shared the news that they are expecting a baby. Everyone has been excited, and her mom, Terri, talked about the experience on Australia's Sunrise at 7.
The TV interview featured Terri and Robert standing closely, sharing how they feel. The teenager agreed with his mom as she proudly recalled the sweet moment when she first heard the news.
He then chipped in a light joke about his sister looking "massive" due to the pregnancy weight gain. At this point, the Irwin matriarch nudged at him, leaving him to add: "Like in a good way! No, like, it's special."
They recently gave a sneak peek of their daughter's nursery.
Robert playfully concluded that he was in trouble and would want to keep his joke away from Bindi's eardrums. The 17-year-old later shared the interview and added yet another hilarious content via the caption.
The post garnered several likes and comments from his online followers, and many agreed that it was a funny moment and a harmless joke. Bindi caught a glimpse of his remarks and responded to it in a seemingly joking manner. She wrote:
"'Don't tell her about this' .... Thanks, Robert! Love ya!"

Fans of the "Crikey! It's the Irwins" star know that Bindi is over the moon concerning her baby on the way, and not even a joke from her brother would work her nerves.
Ever since she announced that she and Powell were expecting their first child, Bindi has continued to update fans on the journey so far. They recently gave a sneak peek of their daughter's nursery, and it was a sight to behold!
From pictures to captions, the couple has admitted several times that they are thrilled to be first-time parents and that all hands are on deck to make parenthood fun.
