The Irwin family set to star in celebrity reality TV show: ‘Can’t wait’

Australians have gotten to know and love the Irwin family over the years through their abundance of TV appearances, from Steve Irwin’s long-running series The Crocodile Hunter to the family’s latest show, Crikey! It’s The Irwins.

Now, Terri, Bindi and Robert Irwin have been announced as one of the groups set to appear on Celebrity Gogglebox Australia next month.

The Wildlife Warriors, who are often referred to as ‘Australia’s favourite family’, will be sitting down on the couch to watch and share their thoughts on some of the latest shows TV has to offer.

“My family and I can't wait to be part of Celebrity Gogglebox,” Robert Irwin said in a statement from Foxtel.

“We are passionate Wildlife Warriors and conservationists but at the day's end, we love our family time watching TV together. Can't wait for everyone to get a little look into what a night at the Irwin household looks like!”
