Bindi Irwin & Husband Chandler Powell Want To Renew Their Vows Someday For A Sweet Reason

Bindi Irwin and her husband, Chandler Powell, are a celebrity couple that we think is the forever deal, and their simple 2020 wedding totally reflected their down-to-earth personalities. However, it wasn't that they didn't want any fanfare — the two got married during the COVID-19 lockdown, so they weren't allowed to have any guests. Irwin may just get a redo, with her telling Hello! in 2023, "We weren't able to have family and friends join us for the wedding. Personally, I'd love to renew our vows one day when Grace is older. It would be lovely to have our closest friends and family with us to celebrate." The conservationist added, "Getting married during the pandemic was certainly a strange experience, but an important reminder that love always wins. And now, we have our gorgeous daughter, which makes persevering with our wedding even sweeter."

Irwin's daughter Grace's birthday has extra significance for her and Powell, as it falls on their anniversary date, so a vow renewal would be a double celebration. It's unclear if she ever got her wish, but a source predicted in February that 2026 would be the year. "This will be the dream wedding she's always wanted. Plans are starting to unfold for a huge white wedding in spring, and the timing couldn't be more perfect now their daughter Grace is almost five and old enough to enjoy it," the insider shared with Woman's Day. However, don't expect her to change her name any time soon. Even though Bindi Irwin's love for her husband is effortless, her reason for keeping "Irwin" is so poignant.

Bindi Irwin wants to hold onto her father's legacy

After getting married to Chandler Powell, Bindi Irwin kept her family name, but it wasn't just because it's well-known. In an interview with ET, she revealed, "I think that for me personally, after dad [Steve Irwin] passed away, it was really important for me to feel close to him, and having his last name means so much to me." The zookeeper added, "Chandler has become an Irwin now. It has become a part of me. Everyone has their own ideas, but the nice thing is that it's 2020 now, anything works!"

Irwin passed her legacy onto her daughter as well, with the name Grace Warrior Irwin Powell. It looks like it'll just be a family of three for them, as Bindi Irwin had a kind but firm message for fans asking her about having more kids. The mom of one has been open about her endometriosis diagnosis and wrote in an Instagram post, "Please be gentle [and] pause before asking me (or any woman) when we'll be having more children. After all that my body has gone through, I feel tremendously grateful that we have our gorgeous daughter. She feels like our family's miracle."
