It’s unhealthy sufficient getting embarrassed by your mum, not to mention once you’re Robert Irwin and it occurs reside on stage.
Showing as visitors of honour at VMX 2024 in Orlando, Florida, — a veterinary convention — the ever-popular Terri Irwin and son Robert riffed on stage with attendees earlier than Terri dropped a tattoo admission that left Robert red-faced.
A member of the gang shouted that that they had a Steve Irwin tattoo, to which Terri replied: “It looks like there’s a couple of one that has a tattoo of Steve and I used to be actually impressed as a result of I don’t have a tattoo of Steve”.
She then continued, revealing the totally mortifying (for Robert, anyway) actuality that she did in reality possess a tattoo that paid tribute her late husband, albeit not one she’s usually forthcoming about.
“I’ve a tattoo that claims ‘Steve was right here’. I don’t suppose I can present it to you.”
The gang erupted, whereas Robert buried his head in his fingers to deal with the embarrassment solely a mum or dad can bestow upon their baby.
Making an attempt to maneuver on from the X-rated admission, Robert may very well be heard saying, “Anyway… alright!”
