In a newQ&A videouploaded to the Australia Zoo YouTube channel, the nature conservationist couple answered some questions, including the one they get asked very often: “Will you be having more children?”

“Basically, we get asked this question a lot,” Powell, 27, began in the video. “And Bindi, a lot of you may already know, she went through abig journey with endometriosis. And basically it was an absolute miracle that we had Grace.”

Powell went on to explain that he and Irwin, 26, are content with their life with little girl, 3-year-oldGrace Warrior Irwin Powell.

Irwin, the daughter of the late “Crocodile Hunter”SteveIrwin, echoed her husband’s response, but also shared a reminder that the inquiry should not be raised lightly.

“And I really appreciate everybody who’s curious to see if we will have another child, but I do just want to send it out there that remember to be careful when you ask this question because you never know what’s happening in someone’s life,” she said.

Irwin continued, “In a family’s world, everything may seem fine on the outside, and on the inside, their own personal journey might have been filled with turmoil and challenges, that you know, you can’t even fathom."

While opening up about herstruggles with endometriosis— and how lucky she feels to be mom to Grace — to PEOPLE in August 2023, Irwin alsodiscussed how painful it is to be asked if she and Powell are going to have more kids.

“I feel like it is a universal question for women, which is heartbreaking because you never know what’s going on in someone’s life and what’s happening behind closed doors," she said at the time. “And someone asking you, ‘Why aren’t you having more children? It’s your responsibility to have more children.’ It breaks your heart because we all have a different journey and a different story.”

Irwin and Powell “feel so lucky to have Grace,” she also told PEOPLE of her toddler. “I think that every day I wake up and I look at our beautiful daughter and think she is our tiny little miracle and it makes me cry because we were very, very lucky to have her.”

According to Irwin, “There was every chance that we wouldn’t have been able to have a little one, so to have our beautiful girl, we are so lucky. I wish more people would pause before asking, ‘Why aren’t you having more children?’ "
