Who Are Rorie Buckey Parents?
Rorie Buckey, best known as the niece of actor Heath Ledger, was born to her parents Nathan Buckey and Kate Buckey. The late actor’s niece is famously dating Robert Irwin.
The couple both grew up in the public eye after suffering the devastating loss of a family member. When Heath was discovered dead in January 2008 from an accidental prescription drug overdose, his Hollywood career was at its height. On September 4, 2006, Robert’s father Steve, also known as the “Crocodile Hunter,” passed away at the age of 44 after being pierced in the chest by a stingray barb.
Terri, their daughter Bindi, and their son Robert—who was just three years old at the time of his father’s passing—remain as Steve’s survivors.
Furthermore, Terri might be proud of Rorie and Robert’s relationship, but there are rumors that Robert is already planning to propose to her. Terri, a watchful mother, reportedly worries that her lovestruck son and his enamored fiancée would hurry down the aisle too soon. This is according to New Idea magazine.
“Terri feels like Robert is moving way too fast,” a source told the publication. “Rorie’s a sweetheart and it’s easy to see why he is absolutely smitten, but Terri knows the stakes are high.”
Despite having major wedding preparations, Robert and Rorie are still living apart. Robert is based at the Australia Zoo in Queensland, and Rorie is a physiotherapy student at Curtin University in Perth.
