DWTS Pro Helps Aussie Wildlife Conservationist Find Love

In late September 2025, DWTS pro Carson Kressley, 31, revealed that she is helping her dance partner Robert Irwin, 21, navigate the influx of messages he received from interested women after a viral TikTok. In the video, Carson had offered to help Robert, the son of the late Steve Irwin, sort through his DMs.

Robert, who works as a wildlife conservationist at the Australia Zoo, has been eager to find a life partner to share his "whirlwind" adventure with. Carson, who competed alongside Robert's sister Bindi on DWTS in 2015, has taken on a protective older sister role, even suggesting that Robert go on The Bachelor to find a new partner.

While Robert is still searching for his "American girl," Carson has been managing the flood of messages, telling the interested women that they will need to go through a "screening process" before she can connect them with Robert. The DWTS pro has joked that Robert may be "single forever" if she maintains her high standards for him.

Robert, who recently posed for a racy underwear ad, has expressed a desire to emulate his parents' relationship, with his mother Terri Irwin and late father Steve serving as his relationship goals. As the search for Robert's perfect match continues, Carson remains committed to helping the young Aussie find love.
