Petition to have the official colors of the Australia Zoo changed to pink? The Irwins are known for their khaki, but Bindi Irwin and her daughter Grace Warrior, 4, make a compelling argument for a new color in gorgeous new pictures.
The wildlife conservationist shared photos on Instagram looking pretty in pink with her toddler for this week’s live taping of Dancing With the Stars. Bindi wraps her daughter in a huge hug as they pose in front of a colorful graffiti wall in Los Angeles Tuesday night. Bindi and Grace are twinning in baby pink dresses — Bindi’s is strapless with flower details on the flowing skirt, and Grace’s has a layer of pink tulle with polka dots that are absolutely adorable.

Bindi’s husband Chandler Powell is also in several of the photos, wearing a black suit. But our favorite moments are when Bindi, a former Mirrorball Champion on DWTS, twirls her daughter Grace. She holds Grace’s hand as she spins and dance down the street, looking so precious together. Grace is definitely her mom’s mini-me!
“Dancing all the way to @dancingwiththestars. 💕” Bindi captioned the sweet post.
“Love my girls so much❤️,” Powell commented. Bindi and Robert’s mom (and Grace’s “Bunny”) Terri Irwin commented, “You are all so special. Such fun photos. Love, love, love.💕” Aww!
“A real life fairy princess 💕,” another wrote. Someone else said, “Absolutely STUNNING! And how cute that Grace is matching! 💕”
Bindi also shared a cute video on her Instagram story of her and Grace standing in front of a mirror in the trailer. Grace hums and bounces along as Bindi exclaims, “I love that song!”
Earlier this week, Terri shared a photo of herself, Bindi, and Grace before they saw Robert on his first episode of the dancing competition. In this snap, Terri wore a gorgeous red dress with flower on the front, Bindi had a fitted black dress, and Grace looked so cute in a light blue dress with sparkly silver stars.

“Three generations here to cheer for Robert @dancingwiththestars 💕” she captioned the snap.
In an interview with Extra after his debut episode on Sept. 16, Robert shared what his family’s support means to him and what Bindi told him after the performance. “She just said, ‘I love you and I’m really proud of you.’ And that just means everything. I just can’t help but get emotional when I talk about my family… they are everything to me.”
“This process is the most incredible whirlwind adrenaline rush — it’s the most beautiful thing and the most incredible thing I’ve ever gotten to be part of, and to have them there is everything to me,” he continued. “I’m so lucky.” He added that what “made the night” was “the look on my niece’s face.” “She looked at me and she was like, ‘Yes!’ And I’m like, ‘If Grace is happy, I’ve won,’” he told the outlet.
