Taking to Instagram, Chandler shared an image of Bindi holding a smiling Grace as Chandler holds a turtle.
“Happy birthday to the most amazing woman I know. Wife, mother, and Wildlife Warrior. My favourite thing about you is your kind heart,” Chandler captioned his post.
“You dedicate each day to bringing happiness and love to everyone around you. Today it’s our turn to celebrate how incredible you are. I love you ❤️”
Chandler also shared an image of Bindi on the water cradling Grace in her arms to his Instagram Story.
Bindi responded to the posts in her own Instagram Story, pasting a sticker over one of them that said, “First birthday as a mama.”

While Bindi’s brother Robert Irwin, who is known for his photography skills, has yet to share a tribute of his own, Australia Zoo yesterday penned a heartfelt message for the now 23-year-old.
“Tomorrow is @BindiSueIrwin’s first birthday as a mother💕 She has inspired the world with her kindness and passion for making the world a better place,” Australia Zoo wrote on Instagram.
