Carole Baskin's 'dead' husband has been found alive and well in Costa Rica.

Throughout Netflix's Tiger King docuseries it was alleged that Carole Baskin – aka zoo operator Joe Exotic's 'arch nemesis' who he tried to murder via a hired hit man – had killed her own first husband. 

It was an allegation that went viral online, and one that was fueled by Joe Exotic himself in the docuseries, suggesting Baskin had fed her first husband Don Lewis to the tigers she kept. 

Lewis was legally declared dead in 2002 after disappearing a few years prior. Baskin was allegedly a suspect of interest in the case, but there was no pressing evidence against her. Lewis disappeared in 1997 at the age of 59.

Now decades later, Baskin revealed that her first husband has in fact been found alive and well.

Lewis was reportedly found alive in Costa Rica, but the discovery is just now going viral – over a year since it was confirmed.

Lewis' family also didn't know that he was still alive. His daughter fronted a press conference soon after Tiger King aired, saying they were offering a large reward to whoever could provide new information to help with her father's case.

"One of the really exciting things that came out of Tiger King 2 is that they produced a letter from Homeland Security. And they said that my husband, Don Lewis, is alive and well in Costa Rica," Baskin explained on ITV's This Morning.

The New York Post who broke the story reached out to Baskin, the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI for further comment.

And it's the public fight everyone is talking about today. Karl Stefanovic and Michael Clarke have been caught on camera having a showdown and now we need to get into what led to the argument, the conspiracy theories surrounding it, and what the real fallout will be.

Listen to The Spill below:

Jacinda Ardern has announced she will stepping down as New Zealand's Prime Minister within the next month.

Ardern choked back tears today as she said she did not have enough energy to seek re-election.

"I have given my absolute all to being Prime Minister but it has also taken a lot out of me. You cannot and should not do the job unless you have a full tank, plus a bit in reserve for those unplanned and unexpected challenges that inevitably come along," she said.

"Having reflected over summer I know I no longer have that bit extra in the tank to do the job justice. It’s that simple."

Arden went on to say she hopes she leaves New Zealanders "with a belief that you can be kind, but strong, empathetic but decisive, optimistic but focused.

"And that you can be your own kind of leader - one who knows when it’s time to go.

Her term will end no later than February 7.

PE Nation designer Pip Edwards, who Clarke is accused of cheating with, has responded to his filmed fight with his girlfriend with the comment "not my circus".

"Yet again, Michael in his true nature has not taken responsibility for his actions and I was blatantly lied to," she told the Daily Mail.

Former Aussie cricketer Michael Clarke has been filmed in a fight with his girlfriend, Jade Yarbrough, who reportedly slaps him across the face and accuses him of cheating with his ex-girlfriend, Pip Edwards.

Jade can be heard screaming at Clarke before slapping him in the face after he claims he had not cheated. 

"I'm wrong? I'm f****ng wrong! You're a f***ing liar. I can see everything. You called her," Jade screams, according to the Daily Mail.

At one point, Jasmine steps in and drags her sister away, before Clarke begins yelling at Stefanovic.

"Karlos, I can tell you now c**t, don't you f*****g walk away. She can, she can punch me, but you, you c**t,'" Clarke reportedly says.

"You piece of s**t, don't you f*****g speak to him," Jade reportedly yells, defending Stefanovic and slapping her partner in the face. 

Stefanovic and his friend Anthony Bell can be heard telling the couple to stop fighting, before Clarke tells Jade, "Go, hit me hit me… do it again, you're wrong, you're f**king wrong".

"Oh am I wrong? You f**ked her on December 17, you f**ked her… you're a f**king dog… I'm going to show her every f**king message you ever f**king sent me," she replies. 

The former cricketer told The Daily Telegraph, "I accept full responsibility for this altercation and am shattered by my actions".

Engineers are set to investigate an engine failure on a Qantas plane after the pilot issued a mayday alert before landing safely at Sydney airport.

The pilot of Qantas Flight 144, a Boeing 737 aircraft, shut down the engine on an Auckland-Sydney flight and made the mayday call over the Pacific Ocean yesterday afternoon before landing safely in Sydney around 3.30pm.

Passengers reported feeling bumps or a bit of turbulence but said they did not know a mayday had been issued until they landed. No one was hurt and passengers praised the pilot for landing the plane safely on one engine.

Aviation expert Neil Hansford told the ABC that "Qantas has never had a passenger lost on a jet aircraft in its history".

He said Qantas engineers would be immediately investigating what may have caused the engine failure and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau would be initiating an inquiry into the incident.

Photographs taken at the airport show one of the engines appears to have a large panel missing from the engine cover.

Passengers told reporters an engine failed but no one onboard appeared panicked during the flight.

"I kind of heard the little bang and then a bit of turbulence, and we just thought okay, this is a bit weird," passenger Sandika McAuley said.

"But we didn't really know anything until we landed, then we got told that there was a mayday call and the engine failed."

The Australian and International Pilots Association (IAPA) said in a statement that such mid-air incidents were extremely rare and it was too early to speculate on the engine failure.

Chris Walker has shared a message on social media after he and former The Project presenter Carrie Bickmore announced their split.

The couple confirmed the news in a statement on their Instagram Stories yesterday morning. 

"Hi there, it’s with immense sadness that Chris and I have decided to separate," Bickmore wrote.

"While this is a tough time, our focus is on parenting, loving and supporting our three children, Ollie, Evie and Addie with everything we’ve got. They are doing great."

The 42-year-old added that the pair "won’t be making any further comment at this stage."

Walker later shared a separate message on Instagram, thanking "friends, family and colleagues on an otherwise rubbish day".

"Glad I get to be with the three best people on earth to finish it," Walker wrote alongside a photo of himself with their children, including Oliver, who Bickmore shares with her first husband, Greg Lange, who died from brain cancer. 

"Your words and kindness (and food) have been cherished. I haven’t got back to you all but I will and I love you heaps."

If you haven't heard of Andrew Tate, the former kickboxer, turned social media sensation has made headlines in the past year for all the wrong reasons. He's become a hero to young men for his misogynistic views and divisive commentary on relationships between men and women. 

A few weeks ago, he was arrested in Romania - a place he openly admitted to moving to from the UK because the rape laws are more lenient. 

With his name being thrust into the spotlight again, it's raised the question... why do young boys and men buy into this rhetoric? 

On this episode of The Quicky, we speak to a high school principal about the damaging effects Tate's hateful comments are having on our young men. As well as Hunter Johnson, CEO of The Man Cave.
