Robert Irwin's Emotional Dance Dedication
Robert Irwin, a 21-year-old wildlife conservationist, broke down after his "Dancing with the Stars" performance, which was a dedication to his mom, Terri Irwin.
In a backstage interview, Robert explained that he dedicated his dance to all mothers and anyone experiencing grief after loss.
"It was really hard to express that and really hard to actually get through a dance while internally you’re processing and getting all of these emotions out there,"
Robert's dance was a contemporary piece that honored his mom and dealt with his grief over the loss of his late father, Steve Irwin. The emotional performance ended with Terri joining her son on stage, leaving the audience and judges in tears.
