Robert Irwin already has fans emotional ahead of his performance tonight on 'Dancing with the Stars.'
"Tonight, my foxtrot dance is inspired by my sister and it’s in memory of my dad," he wrote in a video caption posted to Instagram. "My family is everything to me, and I can’t wait for this special night."
The video, which has come to be a famous clip from the Irwin family, captures the touching moment where the DWTS contestant's late father Steve Irwin tells his sister, Bindi Irwin, that Robert was born. While Bindi, 5-years-old at the time, adorably declared she was going to call her younger brother "Brian" despite him being named Robert, their dad tearfully says to the camera that having kids is "the whole reason to be on earth."
immediately garnered fan reactions of support, as DWTS viewers have been watching Robert excel in the ballroom competition and some remember the life of his dad Steve—who died in 2006—and can appreciate the young conservationist continuing his legacy. "Your Mum has done such a wonderful job raising you and your Sister," one fan wrote. "Your Dad would be so proud of all three of you."
"Crying already today," Roberts DWTS partner, Witney Carson commented.
"Cutest video ever! Good luck tonight. I’m rooting for you," added another said, while a third chimed in, "I can’t wait to watch you dance in memory of your dad. This clip is so cute."

Bindi also took to her own social media, sharing that Robert's dance would be in honor of their family, as well as her own stint on the ballroom competition show, which she won in 2015.
"Beyond proud of Robert and Witney this week," she wrote. "They are dedicating their foxtrot to my freestyle with Derek “Footprints In The Sand” tonight on @dancingwiththestars. I’ve got my tissues ready. This means so much."
The Irwin clan has been posted up in Los Angeles while Robert competes on the show. Their mom Terri has been a supportive presence to her son, especially when he honored her during the show's Dedication Night with a dance to "You'll Be In My Heart."
Dancing with the Stars airs tonight on ABC and Disney+ at 8 p.m. EST.
