Robert Irwin is getting some advice from sister Bindi Irwin about Dancing with the Stars!

If you forgot, Bindi, 26, won season 21 of DWTS back in 2015. It was announced in April that Robert, 21, will be competing on the upcoming season 34 of the ABC dancing competition series.

While arriving at the 2025 Steve Irwin Gala on May 10, Robert shared the advice Bindi gave him when he signed on to compete on the new season of DWTS.

“I mean, I was there as a little 11-year-old kid with my little blonde bowl cut watching her and trying to support from the sidelines, and now Bindi is going to be there supporting me, and she’ll have a lot more dance wisdom than 11-year-old Robert,” he continued. “I didn’t have much to bring to the table, but she does. She’s done it. She’s won it.”

Robert also said that he doesn’t feel any pressure to mirror Bindi‘s DWTS success.

“I’m definitely going to be leaning on her a lot, as I have throughout my entire life, to be honest,” Robert explained. “I think loss brings a family together like nothing else, and for us, for Bindi and myself, we’ve always had each other’s backs through everything, and this is going to be no different. I feel very lucky that I’ve got her in my corner.”
