Bindi Irwin’s Daughter Grace Gets the Princess Treatment From Her Uncle Robert in the Sweetest New Photos

Bindi Irwin’s daughter Grace Warrior is smart, tough, and kind — and spoiled rotten by her uncle Robert Irwin. (As she should be!) The wildlife photographer shared several photos of his only niece this week, and the 3-year-old is getting the princess treatment.

“The adventures of Uncle Robert and Grace (…AKA Minnie Mouse! ????)” Robert posted on Instagram. The toddler looks adorable in a pink sparkly dress with a ruffled tulle skirt, which she has accessorized with a colorful beaded bracelet on her wrist and around her neck. She wears sparkly Minnie Mouse ears in the photo and holds a Mickey Mouse plush toy while getting a piggyback ride from Robert. You can tell she has him wrapped around her adorable little finger!

Each photo in the carousel is cuter than the last, with Grace smiling from ear to ear as she hugs her uncle’s neck. At one point, he looks back to smile up at her, and she turns her head to the side, showing off her gorgeous brunette curls. Grace is growing up way too fast! Later, he walks down the stairs with Grace on his back, because why walk when you’re a princess? A forest of green trees backlit by the sun creates the perfect backdrop for these two.

The last slide is a video of Grace leaning over and just touching Robert’s nose over and over again. “Boop,” Bindi narrates from behind the camera, making Robert laugh.

“Why?” he asks, smiling.

“You have a really fun nose,” Bindi answers. These two are the best of friends, and it’s adorable!

Bindi commented, “The nose boop ????.” Terri Irwin, who shares daughter Bindi and son Robert with the late Steve Irwin, commented, “Family fun!”

“AWW, I love how much fun you guys have together. You are a great Funkel,” someone else wrote.

Back in September, Robert enlisted the help of his niece Grace to make a workout video. “Welcome to the first entry in Grace and Robert’s fitness show. There’s some serious training happening here! ????”  he quipped. In the video, he teaches Grace how to lift weights with her knees, which she demonstrates by bending down and lifting a tiny stick.

“Filming this was one of my life highlights ???? Can’t wait for part 2!” Bindi commented.

It makes sense that Robert and Grace are so close, because Robert and Bindi are the best of friends too. The I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! host opened up about his sibling relationship with Bindi in a March episode of The Jesse Rowe Big Talk Show, where Robert shared a sneak peek into what the duo argue about.

“We argue about the most vanilla subjects. Like we’ll literally be arguing about the morphology of some animal or prehistoric dinosaur or something,” Robert said, per Hello! For example, one time they got into it when Bindi argued that a blue whale holds the title as the largest vertebrate ever to grace the planet, prompting their mom Terri to jump in.

“Really? This is what teenagers argue about in this household,” she quipped. The Irwins need to be protected at all costs, because they are too pure for this world!
