In an interview for this week’s edition of Stellar Magazine, Irwin said Grace has already learned how to call her parents ‘Mama’ and ‘Dada,” according to the Daily Telegraph.

Irwin admitted that motherhood had made her a different person. She also feels the massive responsibility to empower her young offspring. In her words:
“Becoming a mother changes your perspective on life, and being a girl mother brings its own set of obstacles. I feel a huge responsibility to raise our daughter to be an empowered woman.”
“The Crocodile Hunter” star said her loving spouse encourages her to enjoy every moment she spends with their little warrior girl.
