“That clearly runs in the family, too,” added William, referring to Season 21 of the dance competition in 2015 when Robert Irwin's older sister, Bindi Irwin, and pro partner Derek Hough were crowned the champions.The prince filmed the video at the Earthshot Prize awards ceremony in Brazil, which Robert Irwin was forced to skip to continue competing on the show. “We’re missing you, Robert. Whilst your twinkle toes are going elsewhere, I need you down here,” William joked. “You guys got a seriously good chance of winning. Just the best of luck on the show.” During a challenge that asked couples to perform a routine from an earlier season of the show, Robert Irwin and Carson opted to perform the same foxtrot to “Footprints in the Sand” by Leona Lewis that his sister and Hough once performed.
