Bindi Irwin Dismisses Claims She's Cheating On Boyfriend With 'Dancing With The Stars' Partner Derek Hough

Almost all professional dancers and their celebrity partners on "Dancing with the Stars" will be subjected to dating rumors and the latest involved Bindi Irwin who is allegedly cheating on her boyfriend, Chandler Powell, with her partner, Derek Hough.

But the 17-year-old daughter of crocodile hunter Steve Irwin has put down the cheating rumors by posting on Instagram a photo of her snuggling with boyfriend Chandler Powell.

Bindi Irwin captioned the photo, "He's here. Thank you for always making me laugh, helping me to ice my foot when it hurts, making me tea and hugging me when I'm tired. You're amazing."

"Cute @bindisueirwin," a fan wrote. "So happy to see you happy he reminds me so much of your dad wishing you all the best."

Another said, "Such A (sic) cute Couple . Bindi Your Dad would be so happy for u."

In fact, Chandler Powell flew all the way to Los Angeles to support Bindi Irwin as she tries to win the "Dancing with the Stars" plum with Derek Hough. The 18-year-old wakeboarder from Floria joined the Wildlife Warriors team as its global ambassador.

Bindi Irwin herself announced the news on Instagram about four months ago, as she wrote, "Super excited that @chandlerpowell has joined our #WildlifeWarriors team. Our global ambassadors are changing the world and making a huge difference to spread the message of conservation. We must work together to create a beautiful world for the generations to come."

The lovebirds met in November 2013 and dated soon after.

"Dancing With The Stars tends to put a strain on the majority of the contestant's relationships," noted Celebrity Dirty Laundry. "The grueling rehearsal schedules combined with the required on-stage flirting with pro dance partners could drive anyone's significant other crazy."

The tabloid added that one of the more high-profile rumors of cheating on "Dancing with the Stars" involved Chris Soules and Witney Carson, which reportedly caused "The Bachelor" star to break up with fiancee Whitney Bischoff.

"Hopefully, Bindi and Chandler won't suffer the same fate as last season's Chris Soules and Whitney Bischoff," it said.
