Taylor Frankie Paul

Anyone watching this car crash unravel? I recently got into Mormon Wives about 6 weeks ago and become obsessed (I never liked Taylor much tbf) but this is too much 🙈

I think she massively needs help, she clearly isn’t in a good place mentally and her actions in the video are inexcusable. However I fear Dakota knows exactly what he’s doing and exactly when to stop and point the camera at her. When I was still married to my kids dad he would know exactly how to antagonise me, he would follow me around the house calling me names, laughing in my face, shouting at me so close to my face that his spit would go on me, threatening me, baiting me and then when I saw red I’d scream and shout and shove him and throw things and slam doors. He would do this in front of the kids and I’d walk away to try and stop it and he’d follow until it blew up, no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t stop it, eventually I’d blow up, and I did shove him in front of the kids, scream at him infront of them. That is inexcusable, just like what Taylor did, but it’s reactive abuse. If he’d started filming after a certain point, I’d of gotten all the blame too. It makes me very sad to see. I left whilst my children were tiny, and they now see me very happy in my new relationship and nothing like that has ever happened again, because I myself am not abusive, he was. I do worry it’s the same for Taylor. She’s clearly very vulnerable, and in the spotlight amidst it all. I fear she’s going to end up losing her kids and being completely destroyed because she can’t stay away from someone who knows exactly what they are doing.

The video is awful! And she’s put a statement out completely ignoring the fact that she’s the perpetrator!

Her behaviour is equally appalling towards him though, she has massive jealousy/trust issues. Unless I’m wrong he’s only ever gotten with people when they’re not in a relationship so while irksome he’s technically not doing anything wrong? All the while she blows up at him for every small thing, follows him around, gets everyone involved, brings men over to rub it in his face and runs smear campaigns against him every season.. she was asking for details of his last shag so they could have phone sex over it! She’s bonkers. She’s hardly sat there all ‘poor me’.

Tbf legally she might have to keep quiet because she’s still technically on probation and is being investigated again

Is the video a recent thing? I would be gutted if I was one of the contestants and now the whole show has been scrapped

I didn’t ever consider it high quality content but the bachelor/bachelorette seems to have jumped the shark with casting TFP. She is not in any way available to pursue a relationship which will be healthy for her and her children and be sustainable. It feels exploitive to me and I really cringed just reading the men’s bio/ profile on line and i really don’t believe any of them want to be a stepdad to her 3 dc. I’m relieved it’s cancelled and I’m sure the fame seeking bachelors will be fine. TFP may not be fine tho.

The whole situation is a horrendous pile of crap. I think people should be more suspicious of why that tape got leaked now when her season of The Bachelorette was about to air. It’s from 2023, so someone has been holding on to it.

that’s not a defence of her; I first heard of her when the whole MomTok “soft swinging” thing broke. She’s a mess.

ABC is going to lose $130M on this apparently!

Pedallleur · 21/03/2026 07:44

I shall look her up but is she some Z lister/zero talent who has managed to get some airtime and somehow her life is a mess?

Afh, tiktokker/influencer I see. There are her problems or at least 2 of them but giving her the oxygen of publicity won't do her any favours

HelloCheekyCat · 21/03/2026 07:50

@Lavenderandbrown I agree, casting her as the was totally bachelorette was totally unethical because no way was she in a stable place to get into a new relationship.

Also agree that the timing of the video being leaked is very suspicious.

It’s because she has recently again been arrested for ‘allegedly’ strangling Dakota with his necklace sometime in February, so with TMZ talking about that they also obtained the footage from 2023 from the court documents.

God what a mess! She should never have been cast by the sounds of it, sounds like she needs help

Just watched the video after hearing about this on The Rest is Entertainment. Never heard of her before but you can see why Disney don't want to be associated with her. That poor child having to be involved in all that. Her cries are heartbreaking.
