Bindi Irwin gives emotional update on whether she’ll have more kids following health diagnosis

18 months after lifting the lid on a devastating health diagnosis she's been enduring since her teenage years, Bindi Irwin has now opened up on whether she'll ever bear any more children because of it.

The TV personality and mother-of-one - who shares her three-year-old daughter Grace with husband Chandler Powell - first broke news of her condition back in March 2023 with a tear-jerking social media statement.

Sharing a snap of herself in hospital, Bindi opened up on the immense pain she'd been suffering for the last decade, claiming she'd endured 'many tests' before being given a diagnosis of endometriosis.

"Going in for surgery was scary but I knew I couldn’t live like I was," Bindi, now 26, told her followers at the time. "Every part of my life was getting torn apart because of the pain.

"To cut a long story short, they found 37 lesions, some very deep & difficult to remove, & a chocolate cyst. @seckinmd’s first words to me when I was in recovery were, 'How did you live with this much pain?'.

"Validation for years of pain is indescribable."

Since then, Bindi - daughter of the late conservationist Steve Irwin - has spoken only about her condition in a bid to raise awareness.

And this week, she opened up about how an endometriosis diagnosis has impacted her family life.

Taking to Australia Zoo's YouTube channel, Bindi conducted a Q&A session with her followers, revealing she often gets asked about the possibility of 'having more children' with her sportsman hubby.

Chandler, 27, firstly explained: "Bindi, a lot of you may already know, she went through a big journey with endometriosis.

"And basically it was an absolute miracle that we had Grace."

Endometriosis sees tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grow outside the uterus, and can cause a huge amount of pain in a woman's pelvis, while also making it harder to become pregnant.

Chandler went on to claim that they are content with their 'family-of-three', gushing: "We love Grace so much and are revelling in every little moment we have with her, with our little miracle baby."

It was then that Bindi echoed her husband's sentiments.

"I really appreciate everybody who's curious to see if we will have another child," she admitted.

"But I do just want to send it out there that remember to be careful when you ask this question because you never know what's happening in someone's life."

Bindi - whose brother Robert Irwin also uses his platform as a means of raising awareness surrounding endometriosis - went on to emphasise: "In a family's world, everything may seem fine on the outside, and on the inside, their own personal journey might have been filled with turmoil and challenges, that you know, you can't even fathom."

Adding that, though she appreciates 'the kindness and good intent behind' questions surrounding her family life, the animal-lover continued to maintain that 'it's also a really tricky question for many, many people who maybe can't have another baby [or] can't have a baby at all'.

"We feel very lucky to have Grace," Bindi continued. "She is our beautiful girl, but she will probably be our one child. So she will be our one child."

She added, however, that 'you never know' when asked what the future holds.

Bindi concluded: "Maybe we will be blessed with another little one down the road. That would be incredible. But, yeah, who knows?"
