'Tiger King' fans are convinced Jeff Lowe is Carole Baskin's first husband

I'm not going to lie; when every single person told me to use my time in isolation to watch a documentary called Tiger King, I was expecting more of a Blue Planet/Planet Earth wildlife documentary vibe. What I got a cross between Breaking Bad, Disney's County Bear Jamboree, and a Frostie's commercial.

Rather than viewers pondering the ethical implications of keeping large cats as pets, instead, we came away from the docuseries completely obsessed with the lives of Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin, 'Doc' Antle, Dillon Passage, and many, many more unique and charismatic personalities that wouldn't have been out of place in a 90s sitcom.

But since the series hit Netflix, viewers have been left with many unanswered questions, like, was the flamboyant Joe Exotic really behind the murder-for-hire plot against Carole Baskin, or was it a setup?

But perhaps more importantly, what in the blue hell happened to Baskin's former husband Don Lewis?

Well, with many viewers turning detective to try and get to the bottom of this cold case, one fan has come up with a theory so utterly ridiculous, it fits perfectly with the utter nonsense of the rest of the show.

After what must have been FBI-levels of research, people are literally convinced that Jeff Lowe - the man that helped authorities put Exotic in prison - is actually Carole’s first husband.

Writing on Facebook, one fan carefully detailed their theory, writing:

"Jeff is Carole’s abusive first husband who she paid off to go take Joe down. She rented a mansion and that caw to draw him in.

"Jeff and (James Garretson) even admit they directed Joe to kill Carole. When Joe didn’t do it, they needed him to pay, he didn’t. So Jeff sent his friend and he ‘chickened out’ on purpose.

"Carole then paid them all off. All the convicts around him, except (Kelci Saffery) and (John Reinke).

"Too bad I wasn’t the police investigator, I would of definitely caught this bullshit.

"Jeff even told the cops about the Tiger skulls, because they didn’t have enough to keep him otherwise on the bogs 'killing plot'."

And this isn't just one fanatic that has come up with this idea - it is a whole host of passionate Tiger King viewers:

In some of the posts above, people have pointed out that Carole said her ex-husband was physically abusive towards her, and that Jeff had a criminal record for assaulting an ex-wife.

But despite how much we all want this crazy conspiracy to be true, sadly the ages just don't add up. Baskin's first husband, Michael Murdock, would be 81 by now and Jeff Lowe is 67.

Of course, that's only what we've been told...
