I mean, I was in a really bad place when I met Joe,&#8221; Dillon answered. &#8220;I was just going through a lot of things, I was an addict. Being around the animals gave me a purpose. It felt like I was actually doing something with my life. It brought me out of my depression. It was like my own little rehab.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"70.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"31\">\n<p>He added, &#8220;Joe never once encouraged me to do any drugs. I mean, I smoked a lot of weed. But that&#8217;s literally it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During the interview, Andy also asked Dillon if he&#8217;s still in touch with <strong>John Finlay<\/strong> or any of his Joe&#8217;s other exes. &#8220;Yeah, with John, he was always at the park. It was kind of frustrating, he acted like he was entitled to a lot of things, he would walk in the house whenever he felt like it. I don&#8217;t know, he wasn&#8217;t a bad guy but just not necessarily someone I wanted to be around all the time,&#8221; Dillon explained.<\/p>\n<p>He also shared that him and Joe keep in touch often and speak about &#8220;three or five times every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But since he&#8217;s been moved to this new facility, they&#8217;re putting on a COVID-19 isolation because of the previous jail he was at, so I have kept to speak to him since he was moved,&#8221; Dillon shared.<\/p>\n<p>Joe, born&nbsp;<strong>Joseph Maldonando-Passage<\/strong>, is currently serving 22 years in federal prison after being convicted of trying to hire a hit-man to murder Big Cat founder&nbsp;<strong>Carole Baskin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-4\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"62\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"14\">\n<p>Andy also asked Dillon if he&#8217;s &#8220;still in love&#8221; with Joe. To which Dillon answered, &#8220;I do love Joe, he&#8217;s been there for me through my darkest times and I&#8217;m not just going to dip out and abandon him when he needs me most.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Further, Andy asked Dillon if him and Joe were ever into S&amp;M or sadomasochism when it came to their sex life. &#8220;No, we actually never did anything like that,&#8221; he answered. &#8220;And he never asked me to either. I mean, I knew he had done that in previous relationships.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"photo-txt-5\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"42.284263959391\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-photo-text\" readability=\"24.873096446701\">\n<p>But when Andy asked whether Joe was dominant in bed, all Dillon answered was, &#8220;Joe was Joe. He was a powerverse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dillon also shared that he wasn&#8217;t ready for the spotlight following the <em>Tiger King<\/em> documentary. &#8220;My life wasn&#8217;t supposed to be put on blast kind of, I wasn&#8217;t prepared for that,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;But Joe, you know, he&#8217;s a really good guy. He may have made some sketchy decisions but I know he regrets them. His intentions are really good at heart.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When asked if he was being faithful to Joe while he&#8217;s in prison, Dillon answered, &#8220;I am very loyal to Joe. He doesn&#8217;t want me to be alone, you know. But he also doesn&#8217;t want me to move on, if that makes sense. He doesn&#8217;t want me to leave, that&#8217;s his thing. But I&#8217;ve assured him that I&#8217;m not.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Listen to the full interview <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=R7CEN_iaYC0&amp;feature=youtu.be\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1136758\/joe-exotic-s-husband-reveals-new-details-on-their-relationship-you-didn-t-see-in-tiger-king?cmpid=rss-000000-rssfeed-365-topstories&#038;utm_source=eonline&#038;utm_medium=rssfeeds&#038;utm_campaign=rss_topstories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: E!
