Rebecca Lobie appears to have not received an invite to her cousin Bindi Irwin’s wedding to Chandler Powell on Wednesday.
In an Instagram Story post that night, the 32-year-old said she was ‘struggling with self-isolation’ amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Rebecca reportedly cut all ties with Australia Zoo in 2016 and no longer follows Bindi on Instagram – despite the fact the pair were once close.

Dressed in a white singlet top and denim, Rebecca lounged across her bed at her Queensland home with one of her two young sons.
‘Hey guys, just want to say hi. I hope you’re all doing well. Things are a little bit crazy at the moment, and things are changing here in Australia,’ she began.
‘So yeah, just checking in, making sure everyone is okay. I know for myself and my family it has been stressful. I know we’re going through the same thing.’
Rebecca added with a laugh that she’s ‘struggling with self-separation (right now), and will be following businesses online for their at-home workouts.
