A Bittersweet Moment Without Steve Irwin
While the joy is immense, there's also a bittersweet undertone to this happy occasion. Bindi wishes her late dad, Steve Irwin, could be here to share in this momentous time. "It’s very bittersweet because Steve would have been the best grandpa ever," the source notes. There’s been talk that if the baby is a boy, they might name him Steve in honor of Bindi’s legendary father. However, the couple isn't set on that name just yet. They want to see their little one first and make the decision based on that magical moment.
There's no doubt in anyone's mind that Bindi and Chandler will be incredible parents. Even though they didn't expect to have a child this soon, they're embracing the journey with open arms. The couple met at the Australia Zoo in November 2013, and it was love at first sight. Chandler once told People that he was instantly smitten with Bindi. "I’m like, ‘Wow she is amazing,’” he recalled. “We hit it off right away." Their bond grew stronger over time, leading to their wedding at the same place where they fell in love—the Australia Zoo—in March 2020.

As Bindi embarks on this incredible journey, she's taking great care of herself. The source shared that she's feeling fantastic so far, especially during the first trimester. "She’s been feeling great," the source said. "No crazy cravings yet, which is a relief for her." It's clear that Bindi is savoring every moment of this new chapter in her life, and her family and fans can't wait to see what's next for this amazing couple.
