The Tiger King star, who’s currently serving a 21-year sentence, fell in love with former inmate John Graham behind bars, however, their romance fell flat when Graham was released from prison.

But all is not lost though as the ex-zookeeper is already moving on himself and is back with his former partner, Seth Posey.
Speaking in an audio clip, Exotic says: ‘Me and Seth have decided to pick up where we left off.’
‘I don’t expect anyone to respect this but I would like to have everyone let me just be happy for a change,’ he adds.
Exotic had previously announced his engagement to Graham in April in a handwritten letter that was shared on his social media account.
‘Everyone, John Robert Graham and I are officially engaged and plan to marry as soon as my divorce is final,’ he penned.
‘We were together over one year in prison and he is home now with our son. I have never met such an amazing man in my life. He treats me so well, you will love him.’
