She went on to explain the significance of her name: "Grace is named after my great-grandmother, and relatives in Chandler's family dating back to the 1700s. Her middle names, Warrior Irwin, are a tribute to my dad and his legacy as the most incredible Wildlife Warrior. Her last name is Powell and she already has such a kind soul just like her dad."
Irwin and Powell announced their pregnancy in August saying a "Baby Wildlife Warrior" was due in 2021. The couple got married in a private ceremony in the Australia Zoo amid the coronavirus pandemic in early March 2020.
