While fans congratulated Irwin for the award, their attention was also focused somewhere else entirely. Many fans were focused on Irwin's girlfriend, saying she looked like Irwin's sister. Although fans agreed that Irwin's girlfriend is "gorgeous," they also said the pair looked like siblings.

One fan theorized that the pair might be twin flames, explaining why they look so similar. Another commented on someone else's comment, saying, "Wait, that's not Bindi?" showing that the person didn't know Irwin's girlfriend was not his sister.

Irwin won the GQ Man of the Year accolade for maintaining his late father's legacy. When accepting the award, Irwin noted how difficult it was to lose his dad at three years old and added: "But on the other side of that, now, when people come up to me and share a story of when they met Dad, tell me how much his documentary meant to them, I almost feel like I get a little piece of him back."

Irwin shared the achievement on X, saying that he dedicated the award to his mother and father as they were the two people in his life to whom he looked up most. He expressed humility and gratitude at receiving the award.

Irwin and his girlfriend have both lost significant figures in their life. Irwin's girlfriend is Kate Ledger's daughter, making her Heath Ledger's niece. Ledger passed away in 2008 after an accidental drug overdose.
