There's been a lot to unpack from Netflix docu-series Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness, which dropped last month and soon became the talk of the (virtual) town.
Among all the chatter about Joe Exotic and his husbands or Doc Antle's harem of loyal employees, there's even been a conspiracy theory involving Carole Baskin's ex-husband and Jeff Lowe... Specifically, that they are in actual fact the same person.
Many fans of the series have become convinced that zoo owner Jeff Lowe is actually Carole's first husband, who she left over domestic abuse claims - not least because of that convincing goatee.
Well, Lowe himself has now responded to such bizarre claims, having completely shut them down in a Reddit AMA.

Introducing himself on the Q&A, Lowe wrote: "Hi Reddit! My name is Jeff Lowe, I'm the CEO and Founder of Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park and was recently featured on Netflix's TIGER KING.
"I'm entering the tiger cage on Reddit to answer your questions... So ASK ME ANYTHING!"
It was only a matter of time before the topic of Baskin's ex-husband cropped up, with one Reddit user asking Lowe: "There's a conspiracy all over the internet this week that you were Carole Baskin's first husband. Have you seen the picture comparison and what's your take on this? She doesn't seem like your type!"
Lowe replied: "You're a brilliant man and she is not my type.

"If I was stuck on a deserted island with her, I would f*** a coconut. I've seen the side by side pictures.
"It looks more like John and Joe's love child."
I think that's a no, then.
In the AMA, Lowe also updated us about his hunt for a nanny - having famously told his then-pregnant wife Lauren in Tiger King: "I said you can get a nanny as long as I get to pick her. If you're gonna bring in one, why bring in one that's not enjoyable to look at?"

Responding to a fan's question, Lowe explained: "We actually have two nannies now. They alternate days.
"We've had at least 2-3k stalkers that found my cell phone number. I've been inundated with nanny requests."
