Love and legacy live on." That adventure began when Irwin took over management for what had been the relatively small Queensland Reptile and Fauna Park. The park had expanded and would eventually become the Beerwah Reptile Park. In '91, Irwin met Terri Raines, who had been working in her family's construction business. The website for the Australia Zoo writes that "It was love at first sight." Enduring and honoring a legacy CROCODILE HUNTER, Steve Irwin, Terri Irwin, with dog Sui, 1996-2006, photo: J. Stainton / © Animal Planet / Courtesy: Everett Collection Steve and Terri Irwin enjoyed roughly 14 years of marriage together and became a conservation power couple. Irwin died when he was just 44 and she 42. Their children were not yet teens when they lost their father. Enduring the subsequent grief from this loss was a family affair, one where Terri recalls sitting down with the kids each day to recite their favorite part of each day and what they were looking forward to the next day. Terri has not dated anyone else since Irwin's death / © Animal Planet / Courtesy: Everett Collection Terri also says she's not looking for a new soulmate. "I think when you become a young widow, it can be uncomfortable for other couples, that go, 'Oh well, now she's single, is she looking around?'" she shared. "And my male friends are more comfortable, they can see I'm not chasing them. I'm too busy to chase anybody." She adds, "I think it's wonderful when people who have lost someone find love again, but I'm not personally looking, and I haven't been on a date in 27 years. In fact, it's been so long, I've had a couple of lovely women ask me out because they figured that's the case. But I'm content. I have two beautiful kids, a really full plate. I've already had my happily ever after." The Australia Zoo website says the two fell in love quickly once they met / (c) MGM.
