She’s just weeks away from becoming a grandmother for the very first time, but Terri Irwin could easily be mistaken for a woman half her age!

Recently, the 56-year-old turned heads with a sexy social media post. Now, a source close to Terri reveals her glowing appearance is all thanks to her healthy attitude and active lifestyle.
“Running Australia Zoo keeps Terri on her feet – literally!” dishes our insider, noting the mother-of-two clocks up to “15,000 steps a day, just through work”.
On top of that, Terri also regularly hits the gym.
“She’s keen on weightlifting – but nothing too heavy. She just wants to make sure her muscles are supportive enough for her bones as she goes through her 50s,” the source says.
When it comes to diet, the source explains Terri is “very aware of what she’s eating”. However, she’s never been a “diet fanatic” and doesn’t mind the odd indulgence.
“She quite loves chocolate, so she doesn’t deny herself a handful of M&M’s because she’s active enough to burn it all off. She’s also big on protein and loves shredding up a simple rotisserie chicken to put on top of a bowl of greens for dinner.”
Terri tries to maintain her own veggie garden, but she’s so busy that sometimes that falls by the wayside.
“Nobody can deny she looks better than ever. Terri’s looking forward to having a youngster to run after, too. She tells friends that her granddaughter will keep her young!”
And it looks like the wildlife warrior won’t have to wait too long for the bub to arrive.
Earlier in the month, Bindi and Chandler shared a sneak peek of an adorable nursery all prepared – jungle theme and all – for their soon-to-be-baby.
Posting to her Instagram story, Bindi shared a snap of herself – bump front and centre – standing in her future daughter’s nursery.
The white room was decked out with a white dresser and a bunch of colourful images on the wall including, of course, a few animals.
“Baby girl we can’t wait for you to be here,” Bindi captioned the story and tagged her husband Chandler Powell.
We can’t wait for the mini wildlife warrior to arrive!
