Robert Irwin’s Longtime Friendship Turns Romantic: ‘Traveling All Over Together’
Robert Irwin appears to have found someone special. The Dancing With the Stars winner is reportedly dating wildlife photographer Ashleigh Scully.
As per a Wednesday, June 17 report in Us Weekly, the 22-year-old conservationist has known the New Jersey native, 24, since 2019 and has been quietly dating her for months.
An insider told the outlet that the pair have been “traveling all over together,” with Scully accompanying her new boyfriend on some of the Dancing With the Stars tour.
In March, the longtime pals sparked rumors of romance when they were spotted together, per photos published by TMZ, at the set of Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro in Australia, which Robert was hosting.
Fans quickly uncovered social media posts from February 3 showing Irwin and Scully deep-sea diving alongside former DWTS contestant Dylan Efron, who became friends with Robert during season 34 of the show.
The romance marks a new chapter in Irwin’s life. The son of late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin and Terri Irwin previously dated Rorie Buckey until February 2024 and was briefly linked to Xochitl Gomez earlier this year.
Neither Irwin, who showed off a new look in January, nor Scully has publicly addressed the relationship yet, but the wildlife-loving duo appear to already be enjoying plenty of adventures together.
