Bindi Irwin has left fans stunned with a life-changing announcement: she and her four-year-old daughter, Grace, have officially moved from Australia to Los Angeles. Sharing the news in a heartfelt Instagram post titled “I wanted to share a life update,” the beloved Wildlife Warrior revealed that the move is temporary, but significant — sparking a wave of curiosity about what this new chapter means for her family.
The 27-year-old explained that the decision to relocate was made to support her younger brother, Robert Irwin, who is set to compete on the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars US. “I have a little life update for you: we are officially moved to Los Angeles. It’s not forever, but for the next three months,” she said in the video. “Australia Zoo will always be home, but we are here to support my incredible brother on DWTS.”
Bindi also reflected on her own history with the show, reminding fans of her championship win on the U.S. version of DWTS ten years ago. Calling the experience “life-changing,” she admitted that being able to watch Robert take the same stage feels surreal. “Now my little brother is going to be on the show. I can’t wait to support him and be in the audience,” she shared.
The announcement comes at a deeply personal time for Bindi, who recently opened up about her health battles. Just months ago, she underwent two major surgeries to treat a ruptured appendix and endometriosis — conditions that left her in debilitating pain for more than a decade. In an emotional post, she revealed that 51 lesions, a chocolate cyst, and her appendix had been removed, alongside repairs for a hernia she developed after giving birth to Grace.
“Thirteen years of fighting for answers,” she wrote. “I can finally say that I’m feeling better. Genuinely healing. I can function in everyday life without wanting to throw up or pass out from the pain. Slowly, slowly gaining my strength back.” For Bindi, the road to recovery has been as much emotional as it has been physical.
She admitted to feeling ashamed and dismissed during her younger years when her pain was brushed off as “just part of being a woman.” Now, with her platform, she hopes to raise global awareness about women’s health and end the stigma around conditions like endometriosis. “Young girls and women shouldn’t feel alone with pain in the driver’s seat of their lives. It’s time to have open discussions and make change on a global scale,” she urged.
Despite the whirlwind of emotions, Bindi’s focus remains on family. She, husband Chandler Powell, and little Grace are embracing their Los Angeles chapter as both a show of support for Robert and a chance for new experiences. Though the move is temporary, it has already marked an important turning point for the Irwin family’s journey — one filled with resilience, love, and a renewed sense of purpose.
For fans, the announcement is more than just a relocation update. It’s a glimpse into the next phase of Bindi’s life — one that balances healing, advocacy, and family pride — as she carries her father Steve Irwin’s legacy into yet another extraordinary arena.
