Steve Irwin's children Bindi and Robert are reportedly encouraging their mother to try dating apps years after his death.
The Crocodile Hunter died at the age of 44 in 2006 after suffering an injury caused by a stingray while he was filming a documentary.
He left behind his wife Terri, 58, and their children Bindi, 24, and Robert, 19.
And now, it has been reported that the siblings want their mum to 'find happiness again'.
"Bindi and Robert have been trying to get Terri to freshen up her look," an insider recently said.

The insider explained Steve's children know that she'll 'never find another like their dad" and that they simply want their mum to "know that happiness again."

When Steve died, Terri and the children were in Tasmania when she learnt of his tragic fate.

Heartbreakingly, Terri revealed that Steve had been thinking about retiring from his TV career before embarking on what would be his final adventure.
The environmentalist had spoken about wanting to focus on his family life and children, who were just eight and three at the time of his death.
"I remember him saying to me 'I don't think I'm going to film anymore; I think I'm just going to spend time with my kids'," Terri said.
It was said that the kids want Terri to 'know that happiness again' (bindisueirwin/Instagram)Terri first met Steve in 1991 when she was touring wildlife rehabilitation facilities in Australia - and it was “love at first sight”.

At the time, she said: “I thought there was no one like this anywhere in the world. He sounded like an environmental Tarzan, a larger-than-life superhero guy."
The author was actually convinced that Steve had a girlfriend when they first met because he seemed like the perfect man - and played a prank on her by pretending he was taken.
They had a whirlwind romance and were engaged after just four months, then tied the knot in June 1992.
