Bindi Irwin recovering in hospital after surgery: ‘Time to heal now'
(WJW) – Bindi Irwin, Australian television personality and the daughter of the late 'Crocodile Hunter' Steve Irwin, is recovering in the hospital after undergoing surgery on Monday. She posted a video after surgery on Instagram, saying 'after many months of a grumbly appendix,' the zookeeper and conservationist had her appendix removed at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York. As reported by People, the 26-year-old's brother, Robert Irwin, said during the annual Steve Irwin Gala on Saturday that his sister would be missing the Las Vegas event because her appendix had ruptured.

'I also had to repair a large hernia I acquired through childbirth four years ago.' Bindi said she's now on the road to recovery. 'I just wanted to thank you so much for your well-wishes,' she said in the video from the hospital bed. 'Thank you guys for your kind words and support.

Bindi Irwin breaks her silence after being hospitalised as doctors make alarming health discovery
Bindi Irwin has broken her silence after being rushed to hospital in Las Vegas on Saturday. The conservationist, 26, suffered a ruptured appendix and was raced into surgery just hours after touching down in America for a gala honouring her late father Steve. She shared a video from her hospital bed to Instagram on Monday and revealed her surgery has been a success. Bindi said her appendix, along with another 14 lesions, were removed. She also had a large hernia repaired which she got after giving birth to daughter Grace, four, in 2021. 'I am so thankful that I got the help I needed with Dr. Seckin and Dr. Chu at Lenox Hill Hospital. After many months of a grumbly appendix, I finally had to seek help the day of our Steve Irwin Gala,' she wrote. 'After consulting with Dr. Seckin, we agreed that if I flew to New York, he could also check for endometriosis again. 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). I also had a repair to a large hernia I acquired through childbirth four years ago.' Bindi said she is thankful to be on 'the road to recovery' and thanked fans for all their kind messages.
