Terri Irwin sported a touching tribute to her late husband Steve Irwin as she stepped out with her son Robert at a gala dinner in honour of the conservationist.
Terri, 60, and Robert, 20, stepped out in style on Saturday to attend the Steve Irwin Gala Dinner in Brisbane and appeared happy to be in each other’s company.
For the occasion, Terri cut a stylish figure in a colourful, floral print maxi dress, which she styled with a pair of black slip-on pumps.
She added a subtle yet heartfelt tribute to her late husband to her look as she wore a pendant featuring an image of Steve.
Steve died on September 4, 2006, at the age of 44 after being pierced in the chest by a stingray while filming a documentary on the Great Barrier Reef.
The Steve Irwin Gala, which features a three-course meal, is an annual celebration of the life and legacy of the famed wildlife warrior.
Terri was joined at the event by her son Robert, who cut a dapper figure in a light green suit with a double breasted jacket.
The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Australia co-host finished his look with a pair of tan leather shoes.

The mother and son duo struck some playful poses for the cameras before heading into the dinner, which was hosted by Robert’s I’m A Celebrity co-host Julia Morris.
However, one noticeable absence from the night was Terri’s daughter Bindi, 26, who did not appear to join her mother and younger brother on the red carpet as usual.
Bindi usually attends the gala dinners alongside Terri and Robert, and flew out to join them at the Las Vegas gala in May of this year.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted the Irwin’s representatives for comment.
The gala dinner, held in both Brisbane and Las Vegas, raises money for Wildlife Warriors – a charity, previously called the Steve Irwin Conservation Foundation, founded by Steve in 2002.
Robert recently gushed over his close bond with his mother Terri and sister Bindi, revealing the tragic loss of Steve brought them all closer together.

‘I think loss brings a family together like nothing else… people forget [that],’ Robert said during an interview on The Kyle and Jackie O Show.
‘I think when we lost dad, our little tight-knit family unit became incredibly tight.
‘And we travel with the whole family everywhere most of the time. It’s nice.’
Robert was just two years old when Steve died while his sister Bindi was six years of age.
Steve’s legacy lives on through his family, who have continued his mission of wildlife conservation and advocacy.
It was Steve’s father, Bob, who built the iconic Australia Zoo from the ground up in 1970 and passed it on to his late son and his wife Terri in 1992.
Elsewhere in recent days, Robert has rubbed shoulders with Prince William while in Cape Town, South Africa, for the Earthshot Prize Awards.
Robert made headlines when he took in a walk amid the spectacular views of Cape Town and Table Mountain with Prince William.
