Robert Irwin, son of famous wildlife conservationist Steve Irwin, has won the 2025 Dancing with the Stars. This happened ten years after his older sister Bindi won the same title.

In a show that lasts 11 weeks, the stars dance in pairs with professional dancers, while the audience votes for their favorites. 21-year-old Robert received recognition for his strong performance, among which was a tribute to his parents and a heartfelt statement from his sister Bindi.

The show finale featured three performances, including a dance to a song by Australian group Jet. Irwin, not considering the trauma of losing his father, managed to achieve an ideal score for one of the dances and beat such finalists as influencer Alex Irwin and Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles.

Robert expressed a desire to make his father proud, after which he turned to his feelings, noting that he wanted to be present in the finale. Steve Irwin, known for "Crocodile Hunter," tragically passed away in 2006.

Robert Irwin continues his father's legacy, engaging in wildlife conservation and photography, and also recently became an Earthshot ambassador.
