Fans spot glaring detail in Terri and Steve Irwin's wedding photo as they mark huge marriage milestone
Terri Irwin has shared a heartfelt tribute to her late husband Steve to mark what would have been their 33rd wedding anniversary — and fans are all saying the same thing. The Irwin matriarch, 60, posted a precious throwback photo to social media on Wednesday, which captured her and Steve at their wedding ceremony in 1992. She looked radiant in a classic, long-sleeved ivory gown with lace detailing and a crown of flowers in her curled hair. Meanwhile, Steve looked dashing in a black tailored tuxedo paired with a white shirt and black bow tie. Terri captioned the photo with some heartfelt words: 'Today, 33 years ago, Steve and I were married in my grandmother's church in Oregon.

'It was the first day of my happily ever after. Every day I wake up with beautiful memories, so much love in my heart and the promise of continuing his incredible legacy. I am truly blessed.' Fans went wild over the adorable photo and took to the comment section to point out one glaring detail - just how much Steve's son Robert looks like him. The I'm A Celebrity... co-host is the spitting image of his late father, with his strapping physique, upbeat demeanour, beach blonde hair and cheeky grin. 'My god doesn't Robert look just like him!! Happy anniversary!' one person wrote. 'For a split second I thought Steve was Robert. They're twins! Happy Anniversary!' a second added. 'It's seeing young Steve and realising how much Robert really looks like his dad!' a third chipped in and a fourth added: 'I thought this was Robert for a moment! What a beautiful couple.' Robert was born in December 2003 and was just two years old when his father Steve tragically died in September 2006, after being struck by a stingray while filming on the Great Barrier Reef. It was Steve's father, Bob, who built the iconic Australia Zoo from the ground up in 1970 and passed it on to his late son and his wife Terri in 1992. Last month, Terri opened up about her life together with her late husband. In a recent interview, an emotional Terri shared details about her 14-year marriage to the famed conservationist and admitted she wishes he was still here. 'I think the best part [of our marriage] was just the fun and the adventure,' Terri told Us Weekly magazine. 'Steve was probably the most spontaneous person. Everyone says live every day to its fullest, but we never quite do that every day. 'And Steve really, really did. I think there really isn't a word in our language for the opposite of a procrastinator, but that was Steve. He was such a "do it now guy".' Elsewhere in the chat, the grandmother celebrated her children Bindi, 26, and Robert, 21, as well as her four-year-old granddaughter Grace Warrior.

Bindi Irwin thanks fans for their support following medical emergency
Bindi Irwin is thanking fans for their support following her recent hospitalization. The 26-year-old conservationist, zookeeper and TV personality -- whose father is the late environmentalist and "Crocodile Hunter" star Steve Irwin -- underwent surgery earlier this month to remove her appendix and several endometriosis lesions. She was in Las Vegas at the time to attend the annual Steve Irwin Gala on May 10, which raises funds to support wildlife conservation efforts, and was forced to bow out at the last minute after she experienced a ruptured appendix. In an Instagram video post on May 12, Irwin revealed she had flown to New York City to be treated by doctors at Lenox Hill Hospital, where her doctor, Dr. Tamer Seckin, a gynecologic surgeon, was also able to "check for endometriosis again." According to Irwin, her surgery was "a success." "My appendix was removed, along with another 14 lesions (after having 37 endometriosis lesions and a cyst removed two years ago)," she wrote in the caption at the time. "I also had a repair to a large hernia I acquired through childbirth four years ago. Thankfully, I am on the road to recovery." In a follow-up post on Sunday, Irwin thanked her followers for supporting her throughout the ordeal and opened up about the reason for her medical transparency. "Healing," she wrote alongside an carousel of images, including one of her posing in the rain with an umbrella. "Thank you for your incredible words of support and kindness." "The reason I share my health journey is because more girls and women desperately need answers to their undiagnosed pain," she continued. "I've battled with endometriosis for more than 12 years. This disease is crippling and can make you feel incredibly isolated." She added, "We need to raise awareness and change the narrative for women's health. I see you, your pain is real, and you deserve answers and genuine health care." Irwin has opened up previously about her health challenges. In 2023 she revealed that she had received a diagnosis of endometriosis, a condition the World Health Organization defines as "a disease in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus," which can cause pelvic pain and/or infertility, and depression and/or anxiety, among other life-impacting symptoms. Irwin later underwent "extensive" surgery for the condition, during which she said doctors "found 37 lesions, some very deep and difficult to remove, and a chocolate cyst." "[Seckin's] first words to me when I was in recovery were, 'How did you live with this much pain?'" she recalled in a March 2023 Instagram post. "Validation for years of pain is indescribable." "I'm aware of millions of women struggling with a similar story," she added at the time. "There's stigma around this awful disease. I'm sharing my story for anyone who reads this & is quietly dealing with pain & no answers. Let this be your validation that your pain is real & you deserve help. Keep searching for answers." ABC News spoke to Seckin previously about the difficulty of diagnosing endometriosis. "It doesn't show up in any imaging, and there's no blood test. Only by laparoscopy ... by looking inside directly with a camera, we can diagnose endometriosis," Seckin said at the time. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, research suggests more than 11% of women between the ages of 15 and 44 may have endometriosis. The condition tends to be particularly common among women in their 30s and 40s and can make it difficult to get pregnant. In her March 2023 Instagram post, Irwin, who has a 4-year-old daughter named Grace, addressed those who had been speculating about whether she planned to have more children. "Please be gentle & pause before asking me (or any woman) when we'll be having more children," she wrote at the time. "After all that my body has gone through, I feel tremendously grateful that we have our gorgeous daughter. She feels like our family's miracle."
