Robert Irwin got a message for his birthday from Steve Irwin’s afterlife.

The Australia Zookeeper celebrated his 19th birthday earlier this month at the famed Zoo founded by his father and mother.

Sadly, Robert was only joined by his mother, Terri Irwin, for the milestone birthday.

The “Crocodile Hunter” tragically passed away in 2006 when Robert was two years old after a freak accident with a stingray.

Despite losing his father at such a young age, Robert, Terri and Bindi Irwin have kept their late loved one’s legacy alive.

Robert got the birthday surprise of a lifetime in the form of a video message from Steve, and it sent him into tears.

“There are a few people who could NOT be here today, so, we’ve got a little video compilation of birthday messages for you next,” Terri said to a crowded arena.

Steve emphasized the importance of raising children who could potentially continue his legacy, stating that it would be “the proudest moment of my life.”

As the video comes to a close, an emotional Robert tells his mom, “Ah, you made me cry on my birthday. It’s impossible not to get emotional when you see that.”
