BINDI'S WEDDING SECRET SHE'S PREGNANT....

The lovebirds tie the knot – and there’s a baby on the way
BINDI'S WEDDING SECRET SHE'S PREGNANT....
Ever since Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell met six years ago at Australia Zoo, it’s been clear it was head-over-heels love at first sight.

And now their fairytale is complete after a top-secret wedding ceremony at the same place they met – in the gardens of the zoo Bindi’s late dad Steve built with his very own hands.

Insiders tell Woman’s Day that only a handful of people – including photographers and staffers – were present for the couple’s nuptials, which were rushed forward to beat the Australian Government’s coronavirus wedding restrictions, where only five people can attend the ceremony.

The newlyweds have confirmed they lit a candle in honour of Steve, who died in 2006, and that Bindi’s little brother Robert walked her down the aisle in her stunning white, long-sleeved lace gown that was a replica of her mum Terri’s own wedding dress.

A zoo insider tells us exclusively, “Staff were called yesterday morning [Wednesday] to come to work straight away to set the wedding up. [There was] mad panic after Scott Morrison’s announcement. Four Queensland police units were deployed to guard the entrance, and were told to keep the media out. Once a [news] chopper was sighted, they rushed into a neighbouring barn to tie the knot.”

It was a shock move by the couple, who were married without 23-year-old Chandler’s parents Chris and Shannan, who live just outside of Orlando, Florida, by their side.
