Tiger King star Joe Exotic and his husband Dillon Passage filed for divorce Thursday so Exotic could marry a lover whom he met behind bars.

Exotic, legally known as Joseph Maldonado-Passage, is hoping his third marriage will be with a new man he met in prison, lawyer Autumn Blackledge said. Exotic’s new boyfriend, John Graham, was released last month after serving 10 years of a 12-year sentence.
