Her speech at dad Steve’s memorial service back in 2006 had the nation in tears and now Bindi Irwin has shared more details of how she dealt with his sudden death.
The wildlife warrior, who was eight when her dad died, has revealed a journal entry she wrote just days after his death, saying it captures the pivotal moment allowed her to move on.
“I remember thinking, this emotion is going to shape me; this is going to be a real turning point on how I continue on with the rest of my life and I want to be strong for my family,” she said.
“One day — I wrote it in my journal, actually — I was like, ‘this is it; I am choosing not to wallow in sadness anymore’.
“I am choosing to find the strength that Dad had and continue on.”
The new mum revealed that she felt overwhelmed by the “whirlwind” of grief but she also felt compelled to continue her dad’s legacy.
“I made this decision and I was so young … I remember thinking: ‘I’m going to stand up and I’m going to be strong and I’m going to take all of my emotion and channel it into something good,’” she said during an appearance on the podcast What About Death !?
