	Robert Irwin is currently single, but he is searching for his soulmate based on a recent interview with People magazine. In fact, Robert is such a sweetheart that he mentions looking to his parents for inspiration when it comes to finding the perfect someone. He said, “[My mother] is just the most brave, steadfast, determined human being I've ever met...And to me, she is just the epitome of a great leader, a great mother, and just a hero to me because she had this life she created with dad and just had the rug pulled out from under her, but she was able to move forward with such grace and still be there for my sister and I...So I look at my mom, I look at my dad and I'm like, that's it. That's who I want to be. That's a perfect relationship.” What a heartthrob, right?!
Robert Irwin’s last relationship was with Rorie Buckey (who is actually Heath Ledger’s niece). The couple dated for two years but split up in 2024. Apparently, the breakup was mutual, and the two of them seem to still respect one another. Currently, the rumor is that Irwin’s Dancing With the Stars partner, Witney Carson, is currently helping him screen potential dates.
What do you think? Is Irwin going to end up dating an American he meets on DWTS, or is he destined for love back in Australia?
