Bindi Irwin's Aussie fans turn on the star

They feel 'ripped off'. - by Penelope Kilby
  • 19 Apr 2020

Bindi Irwin and Chandler Powell's highly-anticipated wedding TV special aired on Saturday night, just not in Australia.

And her Aussie fans are furious.

MUST WATCH: Bindi Irwin's releases wedding coverage in new documentary

Chandler announced the future air dates for their Animal Planet special, and Australia will view their wedding last!

'Crikey! Thank you to our USA friends for tuning in to our wedding special on Animal Planet,' Chandler began his post. 

'Here are more dates that Animal Planet will be showing it around the world. We will share more air dates as we find out! USA: NOW, Australia: July 18, UK & Ireland: May 3, Taiwan: 23 May, South Korea: July 3.'

He added: 'Brunei, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Macao, Mongolia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam: May 18.'

Crikey! Thank you to our USA friends for tuning in to our wedding special on @animalplanet! Here are more dates that Animal Planet will be showing it around the world. We will share more air dates as we find out! USA: NOW! Australia: July 18 UK & Ireland: May 3 Taiwan: 23 May South Korea: July 3 Brunei, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Macao, Mongolia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam: May 18

The bizarre list of dates shows Australia as the last to view it, two months after the other nations, and three months after Chandler's homeland, America.

'Why so late on Australia? Shouldn’t this be their equivalent of the royal wedding?' wrote one hurt fan.

Another commented with a stream of crying emojis, 'Why do we have to wait until July?'

More accused the newlyweds of abandoning Bindi's homeland, and admitted to being confused as to why a wedding held in Australia at 'Australia Zoo' would be left until last.

One hashtaged their comment, '#RippedOff.'

Chandler, When I went to write my vows I found I couldn't stop writing them. I started by sharing all the ways you make my life beautiful and wrote close to a thousand words. Then I moved on to write about what an extraordinary person you are and I needed a new pen. Finally I wanted to share all my hopes for the future and I ran out of notebook paper. I thought about how there is no way to describe genuine, unconditional love. A love like this is meant to be felt, in every part of our soul. Marriage marks an incredible beginning and yet I feel like we've already experienced so much life together. We say all the time that it feels like we've been married for years. We've been a team through life's wonderful highs and difficult lows. You've held my hand as we've run towards every new adventure. My dad used to say that I couldn't marry anyone unless he could swim across the croc pond first. And now, here you are, helping us during our regular crocodile demonstrations. One of your jobs is to jump into the water with our biggest crocs to help encourage them home! They say there's a moment when you know you've fallen in love with someone, for me it was watching you happily jump in the water with a 15 foot crocodile and then tell me how much you enjoyed it. You are my soulmate. I promise to love you with all my heart through every twist and turn the world brings our way. I promise to encourage your dreams and help you achieve them. I promise to stand beside you as your wife, teammate and friend. I promise to share an 'I love you' before I sleep each night no matter what our day has brought. I promise to be your strength and light when you need a it. I promise to revel with you in each breathtaking moment we are given in this life. Chandler, Thank you for loving me for me. You love me when I'm uncontrollably laughing or falling asleep by ‪6pm‬. You validate what unconditional love really means. You've been my best friend for over six years. You've made me smile every day since I first met you. That's amazing and so are you. My husband, my teammate and partner in conservation. To quote our favourite show, "I love you and I like you".
