Just weeks after Woman’s Day reported Terri Irwin fears her daughter Bindi’s relationship is moving too quickly, we can now reveal the wildlife warrior is planning on moving out of Australia Zoo and into her first home with her boyfriend Chandler Powell.
The young lovers are said to be in nesting mode, and they were spotted stocking up on homewares from a number of stores, including Ikea, House and Kmart, during a shopping date in Brisbane last week.
While Terri, 52, had initially been fearful her eldest child was growing up too fast, it’s believed she’s now given her blessing to Bindi, 18, and 20-year-old US wakeboarder Chandler, who have proven themselves to be incredibly mature.
They’re in nesting mode…
Chandler simply adores his girl!
The pair shopped up a homewares storm.
It’s thought Terri knows her late husband would be thrilled his daughter has found true happiness and a partner who is as dedicated to continuing his animal conservation work as she is.
The loved-up couple recently gave their first joint interview with ET and talked about their blossoming relationship.
Bindi revealed that when she first saw her man don the famous khaki uniform, she knew he was a keeper.
Stocking up for their future!
The couple can’t wait to take this next big step.
“I love seeing you in khaki now. It makes me so happy,” Bindi says of her man.
“It’s this really big thing for me. It was kind of one of those moments that was a real defining moment for me, because you know, it’s only the people who are the closest to us that get their khakis,” she mused to ET.
“So it was kind of like, this really big step. I love seeing you in khaki now. It makes me so happy. The very first place you got to wear your khakis was on the croc trip. It was a cool way to break in your khakis,” the star reflected.
“Yeah, that was incredible. Last month, we were up in far north Queensland on the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve, and we spent a whole month just catching crocodiles in the wild,” Chandler added.
