Jailed Joe ‘Exotic’ Maldonado-Passage is said to be “panicked” that a sex tape from his personal life could be sold and made public.
The Tiger King star, 59, split from his husband Dillon Passage last year – and sources said Joe has a store of personal videos of himself with his lovers.
The Netflix star now fears the tapes – including videos and photos “of a sexual nature” – could be sold by Dillon in an attempt to cash in on their marriage.

The compromising footage is said to be stored on ‘The Lacy Drive’ which Joe – currently serving a 21-year prison term – confirmed the existence of in legal papers.
Speaking to Daily Star, a source claimed that Dillon had access to the drive via the use of a safety deposit box set aside by Joe before his jail term began.
The source also alleged that the potential for the drive’s contents to be ‘shared as a sex tape’ was of “concern” to the former zoo owner.
They added: “It is very graphic material.
“He stored many personal videos on that drive from his interactions with all his lovers.
“The footage was all uploaded on the drive along with all the footage from G.W Zoo which featured in the Tiger King Netflix show.
“Joe also dropped a whole host of photos from his past with his ex partners and other men in his life.”
Dillon did not respond when asked for comment.
Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Joe denied their own personal knowledge of a sex tape and said the star was “taking the high road” amid his divorce proceedings from Dillon and separate health concerns.
One of the videos is alleged by a source to have featured Joe alongside one of his former husbands as they engaged in sexual acts with a third man.
A second source added: “Joe loved using his camcorder all the time in the bedroom so there has been talk about sex tapes for years.
“Also who knows what Dillon filmed when they were together.”
Joe officially filed for divorce from Dillon in March following their split last year.
In January, his 22-year prison sentence was reduced by one year by a judge and the star is said to be still working on a retrial.
He is serving a prison term for trying to hire two different men to kill animal welfare activist Carole Baskin.
