Joseph Maldonado, 62, known as Joe Exotic from “Tiger King,” shared a photo of his husband Jorge Marquez, 33. They wore tuxedos and white hats in an edited image, as both are incarcerated.

“I have never been so proud of someone. Meet my husband Jorge Flores Maldonado,” Joe wrote.

“He is amazing and is from Mexico. Now, the mission is to get married in prison and obtain asylum for him, or else we will leave the United States when we both get out,” said the “Tiger King” star.

On April 18, Maldonado wrote a plea to President Donald Trump requesting Marquez’s release.

“He has been helping me a lot while I fight cancer under these conditions. All I ask God is that Trump allows me to live a little outside prison with him before it’s too late,” Joe pleaded.

Joseph Maldonado rose to fame after his Netflix series “Tiger King” became a worldwide hit during the pandemic.

He was sentenced to 21 years in prison after being convicted in 2019 of hiring hitmen to kill Carole Baskin, who criticized Maldonado for animal cruelty.
