Sad news out of the fine state of Texas today: Tiger enthusiast and handsome fella Joseph Maldonado-Passage, aka “Joe Exotic,” might have Coronavirus.
As reported by the New York Post, “Joe Exotic’s” fourth husband, 24-year-old bartender Dillon Passage, told Andy Cohen that his hubby had been isolated at the Grady County Jail in Chickasha, Oklahoma, over coronavirus concerns. The facility is an hour’s drive from Exotic’s former zoo, the Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park.
The facility “put him on COVID-19 isolation” due to the fact that “the previous jail he was at, there were cases,” Passage said on Cohen’s SiriusXM series “Andy Cohen Live.” He did not say whether Exotic had tested positive for the Coronavirus.
“He is no longer here at this facility,” a Grady County staffer confirmed to The Post, recommending we reach out again Friday and speak to a different jail worker.
However, when reached for an update on Exotic’s condition, the FMC Fort Worth told The Post, “I’m sorry this information is not public.”
Hammer and Nigel reported additional details on Exotic’s “courageous battle” against COVID-19 on today’s program.
