Terri Irwin reveals the reason why she's not dating. Following the death of her husband, Steve Irwin in 2006, she hasn't been looking for another love. In an interview with Us Weekly ahead of the annual Steve Irwin Gala in May 2024, the 59-year-old American Australian conservationist explained that she doesn't have any plans on dating anyone. “I totally got my happily ever after,” she said in an article published on May 30, 2024.
“And while there are a lot of wonderful men in the world, can you see another Steve Irwin? I just can’t," she said. "I’d be like, ‘I love that you’re a librarian and the Dewey Decimal System is cool, but I got to go jump a crocodile and do that.’ Forget that."
Steve died in September 2006 at the age of 44 after he was pierced in the chest by a short-tail stingray barb while filming in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. The couple had two children together, Bindi Irwin, 25, and Robert Irwin, 20.

“I had the best marriage in the whole world for 14 years, and I’m very comfortable with the person I see in the mirror,” she said. “So I’m okay to be on my own now. And I’m lonely for Steve, but I’m not a lonely person, so I’m very lucky.”
