Robert Irwin reveals the next reality show he wants to appear on: 'Let's manifest'

After hosting this year’s season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! alongside Julia Morris, Robert Irwin has revealed the next reality TV show he wants to appear on. The 20-year-old conservationist tells Yahoo Lifestyle he would love to compete on the US version of Dancing With The Stars, following in the footsteps of his sister Bindi Irwin who won the show in 2015.

“I can wrangle crocs, but can I Paso Doble?” he jokes. “It'd be really fun.”

Robert adds that if he ever joined the show he’d hope to be paired with professional dancer and TikTok star Rylee Arnold, who competed with fellow Aussie Harry Jowsey on last year’s season.

“I’d want to do Dancing With The Stars with Rylee because she's awesome. That’s been the big discussion,” he remarks. “Let’s manifest doing Dancing With The Stars!”

This comes shortly after Rylee admitted in an interview with Entertainment Tonight that Robert would be her dream celebrity partner on Dancing With The Stars.

“Robert Irwin, imagine,” she gushed. “‘Cos his sister Bindi was on the show and I remember watching his sister on the show when I was eight years old, and I was like ‘Robert’s like my age.’ I was like, ‘Please he has to be on the show at least one day for me’.

“Guys, let’s all manifest this together,” she giggled.

Robert praises 'incredible' Julia Morris

Speaking about his experience hosting I’m A Celebrity earlier this year, Robert describes his time in South Africa as “crazy, amazing and meaningful”.

“It exceeded every expectation I had,” he shares. “It was probably one of the most fun shoots I've ever been on, and a lot of that is Julia’s fault.

“She is just incredible, she was so caring through the whole process and is an amazing mentor, but then at the same time, she really just let this new chapter begin. We both created this amazing new chemistry, this new dynamic, this new chapter, and it just felt like this awesome new beginning for the show and for me personally. I just loved every second of it and I think it was definitely something I'll remember forever.”

Robert - who recently teamed up with Twisties to help settle the Chicken vs. Cheese debate - went on to say that although he was occasionally jealous of the contestants getting to take part in such a “life-changing” experience, he wouldn’t want to compete on the show himself.

“When they were doing certain trials and challenges, part of me would go, ‘I really want to get in there’. Like when Skye [Wheatley] went into the Viper Room and she's covered with snakes and everyone's like, ‘Oh my gosh’, I was looking going, ‘Man that looks fun, put me in there!’,” he recalls. “As soon as she came out I was like a kid in a candy store. There were all sorts of snake species and I was just like, ‘This is the best!’.

“I did get in on one of the trials, I did do one. There was this like crazy spinning contraption that I tried so I can say I've done it. But eating trials are a no-go, that will never happen. I would rather sit on the couch eating my Twisties watching everyone doing the eating trials, I’m not going in there.”
