Carole Baskin: Netflix and Tiger King star claims ‘dead’ husband Don Lewis is ‘alive’ on ITV’s This Morning

Since Tiger King released on Netflix at the very beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, eyes have been glued to the cat-filled world of Joe Exotic. Though the biggest takeaway from the series was the mysterious disappearance  of Carole Baskin’s first husband, Don Lewis - but, according to Carole, it is no longer a mystery.

Ms Baskin, who was portrayed as Mr Exotic’s antagonist in the seven-episode first season, repeated the claim Don Lewis is alive and well  during an appearance on This Morning. She told hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby that her love was “seemingly alive and well” and “living in Costa Rica.”
