Tiger King star Carole Baskin has admitted she is 'glad to hear' that her ex-husband Don Lewis is supposedly 'alive and well' in Costa Rica.
The mystery of Don is one of the Netflix documentary Tiger King 's most captivating questions and is addressed further in the upcoming new season.
After the thrilling first helping of Tiger King, many viewers were convinced that his former wife Carole had been involved in the disappearance of Don.
Some even claimed that Carole had killed him and then fed his body to their big cats - something that she had always denied.
Tiger King 2 interviews various people who knew Don, and it emerges that someone has claimed that he is alive and living in Costa Rica.
Appearing on Thursday's This Morning, Carole told Phillip Schofield and Josie Gibson: "I'll tell what, one of the really exciting things that came out of Tiger King 2 is that they produced a letter from Homeland Security and it says that a special agent in charge with the FBI reached out to the Sheriff's Detective.
"Which means this had to have happened after 2002 because Homeland Security wasn't even around until 2002, and they said that my husband Don Lewis is alive and well in Costa Rica.
"And yet all of this hate has been made about me having something to do with his appearance when Homeland Security has known where he is since at least back then," Carole continued.
Phillip then said: "His children from his first marriage think you killed him, minced him up and fed him to the tigers!"
Carole quickly responded: "I think maybe they should check with Homeland Security who seems to know where he is."
When Phillip then asked if Carole believes that Don is alive, she replied: "I don't know how it is that Homeland Security says he's alive and well in Costa Rica, but I'm glad to hear it."
Carole was on the ITV show to promote her new television show, Carole Baskin’s Cage Fight, which is airing on Discovery.
Carole explained what can be expected from the show, saying: "It was just like our everyday life for the past 30 years. We have been exposing the abuse, gathering the evidence and bringing these bad guys to justice, and now the cameras are coming song with us.
"And people are going to be so excited when they see Carole Baskin’s Cage Fight because it is true, it’s authentic, it's raw and it's just thrilling."
This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV and ITV Hub.
