Taylor Frankie Paul Vanishes From ‘Mormon Wives’ Post-Pause Interviews
Production resumed for 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Season 5 with cast interviews conducted without Taylor Frankie Paul, leaving her role unresolved.
- Taylor Frankie Paul's The Bachelorette season was canceled following a domestic violence scandal, but The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 5 reveals she accepted a proposal from Doug Mason during filming before ending their engagement upon returning to Utah.
- The Bachelorette was derailed following a domestic violence scandal involving Paul and her ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen. The contentious legal and custody battle between the pair ultimately halted production and scrapped the season entirely.
- Paul admitted hooking up with Mortensen upon returning home, saying, "I came home and then I don't know how it got to the point where he came over to my house, and it was late." She also became romantically involved with Ben Lambert.
- Following the alleged incident, The Secret Lives cast returned to film interviews without Paul in May 2026. Multiple sources reported cast members refused to work with her, resulting in the season being shortened to five episodes instead of the original plan.
- The five-episode season concludes without confirming Paul's current relationship status. As MomTok members grapple with the fallout, Paul's future involvement with the show remains unclear amid ongoing legal battles with Mortensen.
