Irwin and Carson performed a touching dance on “You’ll Be in My Heart” by Phil Collins. Before the dance began, he confessed to why he chose to dedicate today’s performance to her. He said, “I’ve never been able to capture the feeling of gratitude I feel for her,” he said, adding, “At every milestone, when I just wish, when I just wish that my dad was there, she was she was there, and that was enough.”
He further appreciated his mother for always sticking by his side while he struggled to cope with his dad’s loss. “I struggle a lot with losing dad a lot. She always made sure my dad was present in our lives. I wanted to know how proud my dad would be of her,” he added. Additionally, he shared an heartfelt note to her mother on X (formerly Twitter) as well.
Terri Irwin commented on her son’s performance during rehearsals, saying, “I’m here to cry. After we lost Steve, it was difficult to smile again, for quite while.
