Bindi Irwin Engaged In Bliss! Perfect Boyfriend That Dad Would Surely Approve
Daughter to one of the most renowned wildlife conservationist Steve Irwin, Bindi Irwin has successfully managed to come out of her father’s shadows!
After the passing away of Steve following an unfortunate incident, Bindi has spent much of her adult life without the guidance of her father. Creating the resume of actress, television personality and conservationist, Bindi has made a name for herself.
Top of all, the multitalented personality has found somebody to fill in the void, left behind by her father’s tragic death - her loving boyfriend-turned-fiance.
Though Steve never got a chance to meet her love interest, Bindi remains confident that her father would have adored her husband-to-be.

The daughter of ‘The Crocodile Hunter’ Steve, Bindi, with public attention at an early age, has continued to stay in focus after an incredibly romantic relationship with boyfriend-cum-fiance, Chandler Powell.

The two instantly connected after their first meeting in 2013 when Chandler and his family got taken to a tour of the Australia Zoo by Bindi. Bindi is sure that her dad would have approved her wakeboarder husband prospect, Chandler as he fits in well into the family tradition of wildlife conservation.

Talking to Australian Women’s Weekly on November 2017, the actress revealed how her dad would have loved Chandler,
“I'm lucky I have found the one, the person I want to spend all of my time with. Mum and Robert and I have talked about that a lot. We think dad would have loved Chandler.”
The duo fended rumors of them engaged to each other on several occasions. Fuel was further added to the fire after Bindi hinted on the engagement to soon approach after a speculative caption in her Instagram post where she is holding a python on 4 October 2018,
“'Diamonds are a girl's best friend’. Says the girl with a diamond python!”
However, in the 2018 interview with People, she cleared her relationship status mentioning that she was not engaged nor married,
Bindi added that she was happily in love with her then-boyfriend, not thinking too far down the road. In her own words,
“It’s interesting, as human beings we’re always so rushed with things, so you know, ‘When are you going to start dating?’ ‘When are you going to get married?’ ‘When are you going to have kids?’ When are you going to have another kid?’ Every single step. And so I think we all need to just revel in the now.”
She, however, confirmed that she would not be hiding her big news from the media and added,
“I’m 20, I’m loving every minute of my life and I really love this guy, so I just want to take my time to enjoy the now. I promise you I will call you the second we get engaged. … It’s really exciting.”
With all signs pointing a big announcement to be right around the corner, Bindi’s fans all over the world couldn't be more excited.

The Bindi-Chandler fandom's dream turned to reality as Bindi and Chandler finally got engaged.
