00:02 - That was Robert Irwin and girlfriend Rory Bucky
00:06 at last year's Earthshot Prize in Singapore.
00:08 But now, they've called it quits.
00:10 The couple of over a year posted a joint breakup statement
00:13 on each other's Instagram pages.
00:15 Robert is 20, like Rory,
00:16 who also happens to be the late Heath Ledger's niece.
00:20 They first went public at the Sydney premiere
00:21 of Mission Impossible, Dead Reckoning.
00:24 Aw, young love, we hate to see them break up.
00:26 Now, before that split news,
00:28 our Cassie DeLauro caught up with the entire Irwin crew
00:31 for this ET exclusive.
00:33 - Bindi, your fourth wedding anniversary is coming up.
00:38 What beautiful blessings you have in your life right now
00:41 between the marriage and Grace, of course.
00:44 (baby laughing)
00:46 - I think that Grace is so sweet
00:48 because she reminds me so much of dad
00:51 in her personality type.
00:53 Like, she is just all in with everything.
00:56 She is fiery and fabulous.
00:58 - It's no surprise, Bindi's two-year-old daughter
01:00 is following in her grandpa's footsteps.
01:02 The family is keeping Steve's legacy alive
01:05 at the Australia Zoo with the crocodile hunter Lodge.
01:08 - Grace has figured out she doesn't go to the zoo every day.
01:11 She lives at the zoo.
01:12 So, there's a lot of Steve here.
01:15 She calls him Grandpa Crocodile.
01:17 - It's really cute if you ask her
01:19 what Grandpa Crocodile says,
01:21 she'll either say, "Crikey, danger, danger, danger,"
01:25 or "You little beauty," and it's hilarious.
01:27 (laughing)
01:28 - Crikey.
01:29 - Dad always wanted a way for our guests
01:32 to reconnect with our beautiful wildlife,
01:35 which is what he was all about.
01:36 And the crocodile hunter Lodge
01:38 incorporates so many little parts of dad.
01:41 - Every time you wake up in the morning,
01:43 there's wild kangaroos in your backyard.
01:47 - Pretty awesome.
01:48 (laughing)
