Bindi Irwin has paid tribute to her parents on what would have been their 29th anniversary.

‘Soulmates. Happy Anniversary to my sweetheart parents. Your love is the stuff of miracles,’ she wrote.

Sweet tribute:  Bindi Irwin has paid tribute to her parents on what would have been their 29th anniversary. Posting to her Instagram on Friday, the 22-year-old shared a throwback picture of her late father Steve Irwin and mother Terri

In the picture, the young animal-loving couple were smiles as Terri cradles a baby goanna into her chest. 

Steve and Terri tied the knot in 1992 in her home state of Oregon.  

Bindi’s sweet dedication comes after she recently broke down in tears over the fact her late father will never get the chance to meet his first grandchild Grace Warrior.

And thanks to the efforts of a talented visual artist, the young conservationist was able to imagine what such a meeting would have been like had her father survived the stingray attack that claimed his life in 2006.

She shared the artwork, which showed Steve cradling his granddaughter alongside the rest of the Irwin family, with her 4.7 million Instagram followers on May 9.

‘Thank you for bringing my family together’: Bindi recently shared a beautiful artwork showing her late father Steve cradling her baby daughter Grace 

Bindi thanked the artist in the caption, and said she wished her family could all be together like in the realistic artwork.

‘Celebrating my first Mother’s Day,’ Bindi began her post. 

‘This day embodies the extraordinary gift of family. Thank you to The Monkey Brush for bringing my family and Chandler’s together in these stunning works of art.’

She added: ‘I wish we could all be together but sometimes life has other plans.’

Sharing stories:  ‘But I cannot wait to be able to tell beautiful Grace all of these stories about dad, and share with her what an amazing father he was,’ she added

Steve died in September 2006 at the age of 44, after being pierced in the chest by a stingray barb while filming a wildlife documentary in Queensland. 

In a trailer for Crikey! It’s a Baby!, Bindi broke down as she revealed her sadness over the fact her daughter Grace will never get to meet Steve. 

‘It’s hard knowing she’ll never get to actually meet him, and it’s devastating as I’ll never get to watch that connection,’ Bindi said tearfully.

An emotional Bindi added: ‘It’s going to be really special. It’s going to be really special for her to know him, and tell her about what an amazing man he was.’  

Through tears, she said that out of ‘everyone in the world’ Steve would have ‘loved Grace the most’.

‘But I think in a way he is still with us and his heart and soul live on in all of us. He’s never really gone,’ she continued.

Bindi and her husband Chandler Powell welcomed daughter Grace Warrior Irwin Powell on March 25.

The baby was born on their first wedding anniversary.

Grace’s middle names are a tribute to Bindi’s late father Steve, who coined the term ‘Wildlife Warrior’ to promote his conservation efforts at Australia Zoo.
