1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Jum mission with Jonesy and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of the Irwin family. Happily say that.

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 2: I think they're amazing. Terry is an extraordinary human and

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 2: those kids are just brilliant. They really are, and I

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 2: find it very hard to read about what Paul Bindy

6
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 2: and she seems to be having a bit of a

7
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 2: struggle at the moment. On Sunday, she shared photos of

8
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: her dad Steve, her her husband Chandler, and his dad Chris,

9
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 2: and she captioned it the three most incredible fathers in

10
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 2: my life. And then a fan asked her about her grandfather, Bob,

11
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 2: who is Steve's dad. She said he's shown no interest

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 2: in spending time with her or her family now is

13
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,639
Speaker 2: the Irwines are very privately private. Yes, we see them

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: a lot and they are an important brand. They need

15
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 2: that brand to keep Australia Zoo going. But they have

16
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 2: been very private about their private lives. So this must

17
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: have been a big deal for Bindy to write on

18
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: Facebook about how strange they are from their grandfather. She said,

19
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 2: he's returned gifts that I've sent him after he opened them.

20
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: He's ignored my correspondence from the time I was a

21
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: little girl. He's ignored me, preferring to spend time in

22
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: doing almost anything else rather than being with me. He's

23
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 2: never said a single kid word to me personally. It

24
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: breaks my heart, but it's not healthy to engage in

25
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: an abusive relationship. She said that mum Terry pays himself,

26
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: helps fund his life.

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: Because Bob retired from the zoo in and Guy.

28
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: With Terry and Steve the Zoo that Terry still writes

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: to him. She sends him Christmas gifts, receives no response,

30
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 2: but they have been supporting him financially well. Members of

31
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 2: the family from the other side, Bob's other grandchildren have

32
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: spoken out against Bindi and have said, this is only

33
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 2: your side of the story, and this isn't necessarily the truth,

34
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: and why don't you keep this stuff private? So twenty

35
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: four hours after writing that on her Facebook page, Bindi

36
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: has made this announcement on Instagram. I'm taking a break

37
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 2: from social media and most of my work in the

38
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 2: public eye for a month to be with my beautiful

39
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 2: daughter and my wonderful family.

40
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: She says shehould be a mess of hormones, that oh,

41
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: she's got a new baby to start the whole thing.

42
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: I would suggest to anyone social media just brings it

43
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: all too close to home. It's a good chance if

44
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: you've just had a baby or something, or you're going

45
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: through something, don't turn to social media for secure You're

46
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: not going to get it. It's going to make it worse.

47
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 2: Well, she said, recently, I've had people reaching out to

48
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: share their own stories of working hard to protect their

49
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 2: mental health. Thank you for sharing and speaking of truth

50
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 2: to my friends who are dealing with depression, anxiety, and

51
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 2: other battles every day. I see you. These issues are

52
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 2: very real and deserve to be discussed and addressed. Surround

53
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 2: yourself with the light of people who genuinely care about

54
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: you and support you during the good times and the

55
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 2: hard times.

56
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't be on social media.

57
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 2: I know, but she's been very wise in stepping back.

58
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: But they are a terrific, terrific family. I don't have

59
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: any idea what's happened in the backstory there, but I

60
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 2: can only imagine that they're handling this is best they can.

61
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: Jonesy and Amanda's
