Robert Irwin has been spotted with a young woman in Las Vegas as he enjoyed an evening out.
Ahead of his debut on the US version of Dancing with the Stars in a few weeks, Robert travelled to Vegas with his mum, Terri, and sister, Bindi, for the annual Steve Irwin Gala on May 10.
Rob was spotted ditching his family later in the evening to go for dinner with a mystery blonde woman.
Photos emerged of the pair walking closely together down the Vegas strip before they sat next to each other in the corner of a small ramen restaurant.
A source close to the family told Daily Mail Australia that Robert's decision to be seen with the woman may have left his mother disappointed.
'Terri doesn't care who the girl is. She just thinks the whole thing looks really bad, especially with Robert about to appear on the US version of Dancing with the Stars,' the insider said.
'While the cat's away, the mice will play.
'Robert doesn't usually get much downtime, so he let his hair down but Terri was expecting him to keep things low-key, not hit the strip with a blonde on his arm.'
Rob was left to fend for himself in the US when Terri rushed to hospital to be with her daughter after Bindi had to go in for emergency surgery.
'They're in full damage control,' added the insider who said Terri is 'fuming' with her son over his latest antics.
'The line from the Irwins is 'there's nothing to see here'. But behind closed doors, Terri is fuming,' they said.
Irwin's love life has been somewhat scattered in recent months.
He was first linked with Australian Zoo worker Charlotte Briggs last July when they arrived in Sydney together.
Reports later emerged claiming the pair had made things official behind closes doors in November.
However, it emerged in February that Irwin and Briggs called it quits shortly before they made the step to go public.
The pictures of Irwin with a mystery new woman come after his sister, Bindi, was rushed into surgery for a ruptured appendix.
Bindi addressed her concerned fans directly, in a video filmed from her hospital bed shortly after she underwent surgery.
'Hey guys, Bindi here. I just wanted to thank you so much for your incredible well wishes. I just got out of surgery about an hour ago,' the mum-of-one groggily announced, before revealing just how serious the surgery had been.
'I had my appendix removed. I also had 14 new endometriosis lesions that had to be removed and they kindly stitched up my hernia as well.'

The Project hosts awkwardly fail to address ‘cancellation'
Don't miss out on the headlines from TV. Followed categories will be added to My News. It was one of the biggest entertainment stories in Australia on Thursday - The Project is reportedly being axed. While no official word has been given from Channel 10, viewers expected the hosts of Friday's episode to make a formal announcement following widespread reports the show would be ending after years on the air. Despite reported news of the cancellation spreading, when the show aired on Friday evening there was zero mention of it. 'That is it for tonight,' said host Georgie Tunny at the end of the show. 'Please thank Max Rushden, Susie, and we will see you Sunday.' The hosts of Friday's episode of The Project refused to address reports the show is ending. Picture: Channel 10. 'I heard the project is dead?' remarked on viewer on the show's official Twitter page. 'Wait … is it still on?!' questioned another.

'That is the best news I have heard in a while' remarked one viewer, with another commenting: 'Thanks God. No one on there was even remotely funny.' 'I wasn't going to have a beer tonight but after hearing this I will have a few,' joked another.

The insider claimed that development of the show has been underway for quite some time and that it could be launched as soon as next month. It will mark a huge shift for the timeslot, with the new show thought to be set to run four times a week for thirty minutes, a big change from The Project's six hour-long shows a week. It's currently unclear what Channel 10 will air during the other half an hour. has reached out to Channel 10 for comment. Once an iconic mainstay of current affairs television Down Under, the show has struggled in recent years to keep hold of its audience as viewing habits have shifted from live free-to-air TV to streaming. Ratings for the beloved panel show, which made its debut in 2009, have halved in recent years and sparked numerous rumours about its demise which Channel 10 have previously denied. Ten's new recuits The rumours around The Project's impending demise came just days after it was reported that three Channel 7 reports have jumped ship to 10. Veteran investigative reporter and Spotlight producer Denham Hitchcock started at the Paramount-owned network on Monday telling his social media following, 'Well here we go. I've switched channels.' Former foreign correspondent Amelia Brace and Senior 7News Sydney reporter Bill Hogan, are also on their way over to Channel 10, according to The Australian. Brace was reportedly offered a $50,000 pay rise to move over from the troubled Channel 7 and is said to be working on a new, long-form investigative offering established by 10's head of broadcast news Martin White. Her two former Seven colleaugues, Hitchcock and Hogan, are also believed to have been recuited for the same show which is set to rival Nine's 60 Minutes and the ABC's Four Corners.

'We are living in dupe culture world,' he said.

'The show is not being cancelled': Seven denies Sonia Kruger in trouble after debunking reports Dancing With The Stars not renewed
Channel 7 has publicly denied reports that Dancing With The Stars Australia will not be renewed after speculation the cancellation could impact the show's hosts Sonia Kruger and Dr Chris Brown. Dancing With The Stars is set to return to Channel 7 next week with 12 popular Australian celebrities set to tackle the foxtrot. Kruger, 59, is reportedly under contract with Seven for over $1 million a year and currently hosts The Voice and Dancing With The Stars. The TV star, who began her career as a ballroom dancer and appeared in the iconic film Strictly Ballroom, has been closely associated with the dance series since it first aired on Seven in 2004. However, the TV star could soon be down to just one gig at Seven amid reports the upcoming season of the long-running dance competition series will be its last. A TV insider who spoke to claimed Seven was 'tipped to axe' Dancing With The Stars because the show is too expensive to produce. Seven's decision to 'revive' the show in 2021 was reportedly at the centre of contract negotiations to woo Kruger back from Channel 9. The contract, which made Kruger one of the highest-paid women in Aussie TV, also included gigs on the now-cancelled Holey Moley and Big Brother. If true, Kruger will be down to just her hosting duties on The Voice to justify her seven figure salary, a rarity in the industry amid a massive drop in viewers and advertising revenue in free-to-air. In a statement to the Daily Mail, Seven debunked reports that Dancing With The Stars will not return to screens in 2026 and insisted 'the show is not being cancelled'. Nine gave Kruger her first on-air presenting role on the series Wonder World! in the 1990s before she moved over to Seven to work as an entertainment reporter. In 2011, Kruger joined Nine for the second time where she hosted the morning program Mornings alongside David Campbell and its successor Today Extra, as well as Big Brother and The Voice. Kruger was rehired by Seven in 2019 by then-CEO James Warburton, who she infamously called 'God' in her Gold Logie acceptance speech. Despite decades of experience, Kruger was only nominated for the Bert Newton Award for Most Popular Presenter at the Logie Awards for the first time in 2022. She was first nominated for the Gold Logie Award for Most Popular Personality on Australian Television in 2022 and won the top gong in 2023.
