When the news first broke, I was absolutely convinced that Jake had lied and that this was his way of getting his dad out of porn and breaking the incest connotations...but then other people have been able to confirm that Paul died, that there were posts about it on Facebook, etc.
That article is dated the 6th of January 2022...but did Jake participate in it? Was he interviewed and if so, when?
It would have a been a sick lie to say that Paul died, but it's even sicker for Jake to do an interview for publicity and claim that he's still alive.
