Tiger King Joe Exotic’s husband Dillon Passage kisses Too Hot To Handle’s Bryce Hirschberg during wild boat party
TIGER King’s Dillon Passage surprised Too Hot to Handle’s Bryce Hirschberg during his wild boat party celebrating his 30th birthday.
Joe Exotic’s 24-year-old husband joined the oceanfront bash aboard the star’s vessel in Los Angeles, California.
“And Dillon and Bryce became friends through them and connected via Instagram.
“Now that Dillon is in Los Angeles, him and Bryce have been hanging out as both are fans of each other's shows.
“Dillon actually surprised Bryce at his birthday party... that wasn't planned,” the rep said.
Fans slammed the group for mingling so closely together in a large group despite LA currently still enforcing stay-at-home orders for residents.
Those who attended the event were also not wearing masks or staying six feet apart.
However, the rep defended the partygoers: “They had 15 people on the boat at a time max.
“With people switching on and off throughout the day while having someone clean and do temperature checks before boarding.
“Everyone else hung out on the dock and beach area. Bryce made sure to have his birthday over the course of two days so that everyone could attend and enjoy time on the boat.”
Despite the backlash, Bryce gushed about his weekend of fun in the sun in an Instagram post on Monday.
“I just wanted to say I love you and thank you for all the birthday love.
“I had an amazing weekend with my amazing family and friends and it was nice just to feel love.
“I felt a lot of love and I owe you guys for that. I appreciate it more than you guys know.”
He added that he’s “feeling it right now” before admitting to being “a little hungover.”
