New mother Bindi Irwin was given quite the fright when she was recently pranked by her brother Robert Irwin and husband Chandler Powell.

In a trailer for her new series Crikey! It’s a Baby! shared on Friday’s Today show, the 22-year-old is visibly shaken after her loved ones surprised her with a giant dinosaur placed in baby daughter Grace Warrior’s nursery.

‘Oh my God! That just gave me the biggest heart attack,’ Bindi says as she tries to catch her breath.

‘First reaction… Pretty great, she can’t even articulate how much she loves it,’ Robert, 17, says in between chuckles.

Meanwhile, doting dad Chandler, 24, appears to be proud of their efforts, as he tells his ‘speechless’ wife: ‘If she (Grace) grows up with Bruce she won’t be afraid of anything.’

After footage of the prank aired, Today show host Karl Stefanovic who shares 11-month old daughter Harper with wife Jasmine Yarborough, chimed in.

‘My daughter is scared of balloons, let alone a big dinosaur hanging over the nursery,’ he added.

‘Happy first wedding anniversary to my sweetheart husband and day of birth to our beautiful daughter,’ Bindi wrote on Instagram, announcing the child’s arrival. 

‘Grace Warrior Irwin Powell. Our graceful warrior is the most beautiful light.’

Grace is a popular name in both Bindi and Chandler’s families. ‘Warrior’ is inspired by Bindi’s late father Steve Irwin, who coined the term ‘wildlife warrior’.
