Bindi Irwin and her husband, Chandler Powell, are speaking out about their plans for expanding their family, offering a candid look at their journey and what lies ahead.

In a recent Q&A video posted on the Australia Zoo YouTube channel, the couple addressed a question they say they’re asked constantly: “Are you planning on having another child?” The inquiry has become a daily part of their lives, and Powell was quick to share the heartfelt story behind their current family dynamic.

“We’re so grateful to have Grace, our miracle baby,” Powell said, referring to their 3-year-old daughter. He went on to explain how difficult it was for Bindi to conceive, especially after she battled endometriosis, a condition that can impact fertility. “It’s truly a miracle that we have Grace, and we cherish every moment with her,” Powell added.

The couple welcomed Grace Warrior Irwin Powell on March 25, 2021 — a date that coincided with their wedding anniversary. Since then, they’ve embraced their small family of three, focusing on making precious memories with their little girl.

“We’re absolutely thrilled with our family just the way it is,” Powell added. “We cherish every moment with Grace and wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Bindi, the daughter of the late conservationist and wildlife expert Steve Irwin, echoed Powell’s sentiment. She also took a moment to address the delicate nature of the question, encouraging fans to be mindful when asking about other families’ plans.

“I truly appreciate everyone’s curiosity, but I think it’s important to remember that not every family’s journey is as it appears on the outside,” Bindi shared. “Behind closed doors, many families are facing challenges that others might not understand, so it’s important to approach these questions with care.”

Though she acknowledged the well-meaning intent behind such inquiries, Bindi stressed that for many, questions about having more children can be deeply sensitive. “For some people, it’s just not possible to have more kids, or they may not be able to have any at all,” she said.

Irwin emphasized how blessed she feels to have Grace and made it clear that they likely won’t be adding to their family. “Grace is our little miracle, and we feel beyond grateful to have her in our lives,” she shared. “She is our one perfect child. If we’re ever blessed with another, that would be amazing. But we don’t know what the future holds.”

Despite the possibility of a second child being uncertain, Bindi clarified that she dislikes referring to Grace as their “only” child. “She is our one and only, and we are beyond thankful for her,” Bindi said, her voice filled with love.

Bindi had previously shared her endometriosis diagnosis with fans in March 2023, revealing that she had undergone surgery to remove 37 lesions and a cyst. Endometriosis, which affects about 11% of women, can lead to painful and challenging symptoms, including infertility.

In that post, Bindi also asked her followers to refrain from asking her about having more children, highlighting the sensitivity of such questions. “Please be gentle and pause before asking when we’ll have more children,” she wrote at the time.

Bindi and Chandler’s journey highlights the emotional challenges of family planning and underscores the importance of showing empathy when talking about such deeply personal topics.
