Robert Irwin and Rorie Buckey have called it quits after dating for a year! It’s the end of an era for this celebrity couple, and fans are buzzing with questions. What led to the split? What’s next for both of them? Join the conversation as we delve into the details of this high-profile breakup.
Robert Irwin And Rorie Buckey Broke Up
After more than a year together, the ex-couple announced their split in a joint statement that was posted on Irwin’s Instagram story.
The statement read “We wanted to share that we have decided to go our separate ways but profoundly appreciate all of the time spent together and wish one another all the very best into the future.”
They added further, “We wish to express the gratitude and respect we have for one another as we continue our journeys on different paths.”
Buckey, 19, and Robert Irwin, 20, concluded their statement by saying they “really appreciate your respect and privacy at this time” and that they will not be commenting further on the breakup.
In July 2023, Heath Ledger’s niece Buckey and wildlife photographer Robert Irwin, the late “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin’s son, made their red carpet debut at the Sydney premiere of “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One.”
During that period, rumors circulated that they had been dating since 2022, but they had not made their relationship official.
After being spotted together on a date in Queensland, they were initially connected in November 2022. A few weeks later, on December 20, 2022, Robert Irwin’s birthday, they were once more captured in pictures at the Australia Zoo. Buckey was in the stands watching Robert Irwin and his mother Terri put on a show.
Several social media posts by his sister Bindi included references to Buckey. Bindi Irwin shared a picture with her mother, younger brother, husband Chandler Powell, and their daughter Grace on Instagram in October 2023. In the caption, she praised Buckey, her brother’s “gorgeous girlfriend,” as well.
Bindi Irwin wrote, “Sweetest soul, beautiful friend, I love her dearly and you’ll usually see Grace just following her around because she adores her.”
In addition, Buckey took part in a crazy family video that was shot in November 2023 at the Brisbane annual Steve Irwin Gala.
Robert Irwin and Buckey appeared in public multiple times together when they were dating, such as at the GQ Australia Men of the Year Awards in December and the 2023 Earthshot Prize Awards in Singapore. The last time we saw them was on January 25, 2024, in Melbourne, during the Australian Open.
