Terri Irwin Discusses Robert's Rising Sex Symbol Status

Terri Irwin has expressed mixed feelings about her son Robert Irwin's new status as a sex symbol following his widely publicized underwear campaign and rising entertainment profile. While she acknowledges feeling proud of Robert's success, particularly his co-hosting role on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and his upcoming appearance on Dancing With The Stars US, she admits the increased attention is 'a lot.' Terri recalled that her late husband Steve Irwin also experienced newfound attention after becoming famous, and she echoed his sentiments about the value of authentic relationships. Despite initial reservations about Robert's racy photoshoots, Terri eventually supported his decisions, recognizing his growing independence and platform to spread positivity. Robert himself described navigating his new public image as 'funny,' but emphasized his focus on using his platform for good. Terri also noted her ongoing pride in both her children and her contentment with life following Steve Irwin's death.
