Robert Irwin has smashed his US Dancing with the Stars debut in an incredible performance, with his family showing up to support him.
Terri Irwin, Bindi, her husband Chandler and their daughter Grace pulled out all the stops to support Robert in his first dance of the show.
Bindi took to Instagram to show off their looks and offer her support to her brother before he hit the stage for the first time.
In one snap she posted online she was standing with her mum Terri, who looked stunning in a red Leo Lin gown featuring a flower. The dress retails for $799.
Bindi wore a black corset style gown with a puffy skirt, with her short hair blow-dried over her shoulders.
She wore her hair down and curled with a natural makeup look.

“Tonight is the night!!! Robert’s debut on Dancing with the stars,” read the caption on the post.
“Such a surreal feeling to be here with my family 10 years later. So excited to cheer on my brother and his incredible partner, Witney.”
The post also included a picture of Grace sitting on her mum’s lap, wearing a gorgeous pale blue sparkly frock.
Bindi competed on the show and won in 2015, so Robert has some big shoes to fill.
Robert has been posting about his Dancing with the Stars journey on Instagram since rehearsals started last week.
He also posted about his family coming to visit him for the show today.

”The fam has arrived for the live show! Dancing with the Stars premier here we go,” one post read, with a picture of his family standing beside him.
The show is aired live, with the dancers getting eliminated each week.
Irwin danced to Born to be Wild and got a score of 15 out of 20.
“That was the best first dance I have ever seen on the show,” judge Derek Hough said.
Judge Bruno Tonioli agreed, saying the dance was “not good, but great.”
Following his stellar performance, Robert took to Instagram to celebrate.
“BEST NIGHT EVER! Our first dance! I started my rehearsals without the slightest idea of how to dance and I am just so grateful to Witney Carson for being the most incredible teacher,” he wrote.
“This show means the world to me and I am pinching myself that I get to live out a childhood dream.
“And how special to have my family here to celebrate with me. Team IrWINit are here to bring passion and positivity into the ballroom! Week one done, onto the next!”
