“Tiger King” star and “Dancing With the Stars” contestant Carole Baskin has come out as bisexual.

“I have always considered myself to be bisexual,” Baskin, 59, told PinkNews via video.

“Even though I’ve never had a wife, I could just as easily have a wife as a husband … I just don’t see us as being different genders or different colors, or different anything.”.

Baskin told the outlet she came to the realization while engaged to a psychologist immersed in the LGBTQ community at the heights of the AIDS crisis in the 1980s, saying, “I became very close to people in that community then.”.

Asked if her “Tiger King” co-star and now-imprisoned foe Joe Exotic was a good representative of the queer community, Baskin said, “I think he’s an embarrassment to the human community.”

“It’s not a matter of what your sexuality is, this man is just a deviant in the way that he treats human life and animal life.”

Exotic is still serving out his 22-year-old sentence for attempting to have Baskin killed; last month, he sent President Donald Trump a 257-page petition to be pardoned for the crime
