Mirror-Ball, Mystery Girl & the Erewhon Smoothie: Robert Irwin’s DWTS Finale Hugs Spark “Which Brunette?” Frenzy

November 25, 2025: Robert Irwin lifts the Season 34 Mirror Ball, but the trophy isn’t the only thing glued to his side. Twice that night Avengers star Xochitl Gomez is spotted with him—once barefoot in a halter dress giggling while he balances on one leg, bouquet in hand; later sprinting into his victory hug so tightly fans swear lip-readers catch “see you soon.”

The whispers combust online: “KISS!” comments fly, heart-eyes multiply, and Gomez’s backstage bouquet suddenly looks like a rose ceremony.

Enter plot twist: a gossip tip claims the 21-year-old wildlife heir has also been “following around” DWTS troupe dancer Hailey Bills, 19, the only ensemble member he follows on IG. Video surfaces of the pair freestyle-dancing outside the studio, adding jet fuel to the fire.

Add a reported Erewhon smoothie “date” with Xochitl and the triangle is complete—though sources insist Irwin is in “Miss Right Now” mode, not racing toward “Miss Right.”

Fresh off a February 2024 split from longtime girlfriend Rorie Buckey, Robert admits the TikTok spotlight makes romance “holy moly challenging,” but vows, “I never change who I am.”

So for now the world gets a smiling newly crowned dancer, two brunettes in the wings, and a flock of fans shipping hashtags faster than a kangaroo on Red Bull—waiting to see which storyline earns the final rose … or if the American tourist his parents’ love story promised is still stuck in baggage claim.
