Terri Irwin: “Steve Wanted Me To Re-Marry”

ÂÂ

In an interview to be aired on the Nine network tonight, Terri Irwin has revealed that her late husband - the Croc Hunter, Steve Irwin – wanted her to remarry if something happened to him.

Terri told A Current Affair journalist, Tracy Grimshaw, that Steve was always adamant he would die young, and encouraged his wife to move on an remarry when he left her and the children alone. ÂÂ

“Steve himself would say to me, if anything ever happened to me I would hope that you would remarry …but I don’t know when or if I ever would,” Mrs Irwin said.  ÂÂ

Also in the interview, Terri had a bit to say to those critics who think her daughter, Bindi, is spending too much time in the spotlight since her father’s tragic death last September. She explained that while she was “concerned at claims her daughter was not being allowed to grieve properly,” she’s sure that everything’s ok in the world of Bindi, and that she’s coping as well as can be expected with the loss.

“If a child is not coping that’s when intervention needs to take place and that’s what I have watched for,” she said.

“I have watched for Bindi’s grades changing, I have watched for her behaviour changing — maybe insomnia, fearfulness — anything that may be different or abnormal and the fact that she is doing OK. It’s OK that she can stand up and speak eloquently and seem happy, it’s ok that she is happy.”ÂÂ

The interview will be aired at 6.30 pm EST tonight in Australia.

Terri Irwin On Life Without Steve

Australia Zoo owner Terri Irwin has told People of her struggles to come to terms with being a single parent.

“It’s extremely difficult,” she said at the Nickelodeon Awards on Saturday. “Part of me is still waiting for the day that he walks through the door.”

Despite the fact that he’s been gone since September last year, Terri says that Steve is still very much a part of their lives.

“We have so much footage of Steve and we watch it so it’s like we almost get to see him every day.”

“The kids and I have good days and bad, but you just deal with it as it comes.”

Terri Irwin Given Husband’s Death Footage

Terri Irwin has been given the last remaining copy of the video footage depicting her late husband, Steve Irwin’s death, by Queensland authorities.

Queensland State Coroner Michael Barnes said that the authorities broke with protocol to make sure that the footage did not fall into the wrong hands. He also said that all copies of the footage, which show croc hunter Steve Irwin being stabbed in the heart by a stingray barb, have since been destroyed.

Mr Barnes told News Limited that Mrs Irwin had been given the footage just before Christmas, to prevent copies being sold on the black market.

“When the final police investigation report is received the coroner will, in consultation with Ms Irwin, determine whether an inquest is necessary,” Mr Barnes said.

Police had informed him that if the tapes were to fall into the wrong hands, they would expect them to reach at least $1 million (Australian) on the black market.
