Bindi

Irwin took

to social

media to

pen a

heartfelt

tribute to her mom, Terri,

and late father, Steve, on

what would have been their

27th wedding anniversary.

“Your love is everlasting, and

shines brighter each and

every day,” she wrote, also

sharing a sweet photo of her

parents. “They’ve served as

an example to Bindi of what

true love really is,” a source

tells OK!, adding that even

after Steve tragically passed

in 2006 at age 44 following a

stingray attack, Bindi was in

awe of how her mother’s

love for her dad never faded.

“Bindi’s always said that she

hopes to have a marriage

like her parents did

someday.”

And now, she does.OK!

has learned that Bindi

recently wed her longtime

love, Chandler Powell. “They

exchanged vows in a secret

ceremony at her family’s

beloved Australia Zoo [in

Queensland, Australia]. It

was a beautiful celebration,”

says the source, adding that

the conservationist, 20, and

the American-born

wakeboarder, 22, were

surrounded by 200 of their

closest friends and family —

and that Steve’s presence
