Remember how obsessed you were with your teenage boyfriend?
Yep. Same. Now, how confident would you be about confessing your love to said 17-year-old boyfriend in one of the country’s biggest magazines?
Not very?
Well, Bindi Irwin is warming the cockles of our old, cold hearts as she confesses to the Australian Women’s Weekly that her new BF Chandler Powell is, like, the only guy who “gets her”.
Naw. #younglove
Bindi has spoken in the interview about being in love (!!!) with Chandler, who does, in fairness, sound like a teenage dreamboat. I mean, the dude is a professional wakeboarder. My teenage boyfriend didn’t even wear shoes.
Like Bindi, Chandler spends much of his time travelling the globe for his career, and the two have connected over their shared hectic schedules.
Bindi, who has been dressed for the shoot as Nicole-Kidman-in-Baz-Luhrmans-Australia, has not a sequin in sight as she poses with her old mate the koala in a variety of lacey frocks. She looks very grown up, and very happy.
Oh, to be 17 and in love.
We just feel sorry for Chandler, who will suffer the wrath of a thousand disgruntled Aussie Mums if he even LOOKS the other direction…

My brother started dated his now wife when they were 15. I remember how she used to speak about my brother back then with stars in her eyes. (and I use to think ewwww gross). 16 years later they're still happily married with 3 children and she still gushes about him on Facebook.
I was infatuated with my now husband when I was 18. 10 years later he is still the most amazing thing in my life.
Not everyone falls out of love with their teenage crush.
