Bindi Irwin is sharing a health update from her hospital bed.
Over the weekend, the late Steve Irwin’s son Robert revealed his big sis was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery after her appendix unexpectedly ruptured. He assured fans she’s okay — just reeling from the medical emergency so soon after having surgery for a chronic endometriosis issue just last year. Thankfully she’s now in recovery and offering an update on what doctors found while operating…

During a video from her hospital bed shared on Monday night, the 26-year-old told followers:
“I just wanted to thank you so much for your incredible well wishes. I just got out of surgery about an hour ago. I had my appendix removed. I also had 14 new endometriosis lesions that had to be removed, and they kindly stitched up my hernia as well.”
OMG! Poor Bindi… She went on to express she’s “forever grateful” for her medical team and is on the “road to recovery one step at a time.” In her caption, she added more details:
“I am so thankful that I got the help I needed with Dr. Seckin and Dr. Chu at Lenox Hill Hospital. After many months of a grumbly appendix, I finally had to seek help the day of our Steve Irwin Gala. After consulting with Dr. Seckin, we agreed that if I flew to New York, he could also check for endometriosis again. Surgery was a success. My appendix was removed, along with another 14 lesions (after having 37 endometriosis lesions and a cyst removed two years ago). I also had a repair to a large hernia I acquired through childbirth four years ago.”
The mom of one continued:
“Thankfully, I am on the road to recovery. I appreciate all the kind messages I’ve received, and the support for our Gala in Las Vegas. Credit to Robert for hosting the evening, he did such an incredible job raising funds and awareness for Wildlife Warriors. And thanks to my family for always being there for me. I have so much love for dear Chandler & sweet Grace. Thank you to Mum for being there with me every step of the way. And rest assured, I’ll see you at the next Steve Irwin Gala in Brisbane this November. One day at a time. Time to heal now. Sending my love to you all.”
