Joe —  who’s full name is Joseph Allen Schreibvogel — found fame this summer with the popular Netflix series Tiger King, which documented the rise and fall of his animal sanctuary.

He’s currently serving 22-year sentence after being found guilty of a murder-for-hire plot against his exotic animal rival Carole Baskin, 58.

The husbands have had a conversation about whether Dillon, who is 35 years Joe’s junior, should move on to a new relationship.

DailyMailTV learned in October that Exotic was sexually assaulted and left with gruesome injuries from his shackles at a previous facility he was held at.

It’s claimed staff at his current prison in Texas search Exotic’s room every other day, write him up for minor prison violations, berate him on a daily basis and hurl cutting insults his way, even claiming his husband Dillon is cheating behind his back.

A fellow inmate who spent time with Exotic in prison told DailyMailTV that the abuse is taking its toll on the star and he’s dropped 40lbs of weight through stress.
