The family of Steve Irwin is receiving assistance from Prince William in carrying on his legacy.
During the Wildlife Warriors’ Steve Irwin Gala, which took place in Las Vegas on Saturday, May 11, the late star’s wife Terri Irwin, daughter Bindi Irwin, and son Robert Irwin were there. Additionally, the Prince of Wales, who is 41 years old, recorded a unique video message just for the event.
In the video, which was made possible by a text message sent by Robert, William extends a warm greeting to all who have come to attend the gala, which is themed around the celebration of the life and legacy of the great Steve Irwin.

“The evening is all about conservation and carrying on Steve’s global mission to protect life on our planet,” William said. “Tonight is all about conservation.” “His desire was to have the purest water, the freshest air, and an abundance of animals in his life. First and foremost, however, he desired a bright future for our children.
He went on to say, “When it comes to advocating for the preservation of life on our planet, it is a passion that I share. With this in mind, I decided to launch the Earthshot Prize in order to search for and scale up innovative solutions to the most significant environmental challenges that the world is currently facing.” We have made it our goal to save and revitalize our planet throughout this crucial decade that is coming up to the year 2030.
Additionally, William expressed his “huge gratitude” for “the Irwin family’s support” of Earthshot, which he first started in the year 2020. The reward is supported and promoted by Robert in particular, who acts as an ambassador for it.
William concluded his speech by saying, “And I’m proud to join you virtually tonight to celebrate their work through Wildlife Warriors.” These words were included in the message. Having the opportunity to see the worldwide effect of the charity that Steve and Terri established in 2002 is a source of optimism for the future.
After that, the prince continued by saying that “never before has it been so important for each and every one of us to make choices that are environmentally conscious in order to ensure the health and future of our planet.”
The message was concluded with the following statement: “I hope you have a wonderful evening, and I want to express my gratitude for your concern for the future of our wild places, our wildlife, and our planet.” He went on to say, “Together, we have the power to make a difference.”
Over the course of many years, Robert and William have been using their respective platforms to promote for the environment. In November of 2023, the Australian television personality expressed some positive sentiments toward the prince and his commitment to the protection of the environment.
“It is difficult to put into words just how massive Earthshot is for wildlife conservation, for climate action, and for the world,” the twenty-year-old said in an interview with this publication. The fact that Prince William, who has such a powerful platform, is willing to contribute his voice and resources to the process of bringing about constructive change is a very beautiful and refreshing thing to see. I admire the actions that he is doing.
Robert was told by the Prince of Wales in 2021 that his father would be “very proud” of him. This means that the Prince of Wales had already reciprocated the compliment.
William told Robert, “He’d be very proud of you, Robert,” referring to Steve, who passed away unexpectedly in 2006 while participating in a diving adventure. You proceeded with what you said. You are only second to him in terms of your devotion.
At the same time that Prince William’s video was being shown to welcome guests at the annual banquet in Las Vegas, his brother, Prince Harry, was traveling across the globe with his bride, Meghan Markle, on a journey that spans three days in Nigeria.
Since the pair initially stepped down from their positions as senior working royals in the year 2020, this is the first worldwide tour that they have done together.
