Taylor Frankie Paul’s domestic dispute has reportedly caused The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives to press pause on production — but will it affect The Bachelorette season 22 premiere?
While Taylor, 31, was allegedly involved in a domestic violence dispute with on-again, off-again boyfriend Dakota Mortensen this month, Variety reported on Monday, March 16, that the investigation “will not impact” The Bachelorette’s release schedule or press plan.
Taylor, who is the newest lead of the ABC dating franchise, is currently promoting the series in New York City. She is also set to attend a premiere event in Los Angeles this weekend ahead of the network premiere on Sunday, March 22.
Us Weekly has reached out to ABC for comment.
Taylor Frankie Paul Reflected on Dakota Dynamic Before Alleged Dispute
News broke on Monday that producers halted filming Hulu’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives after an alleged domestic dispute took place between Taylor and Dakota, 33, shooting season 5.
A Draper City Police Department spokesperson in Utah later confirmed to Us that a “domestic assault investigation” involving the former couple is ongoing.
“Allegations have been made in both directions” and “contact was made with involved parties on [February] 24th and 25th,” the police told Us.

“The Mormon Wives cast [is] honestly terrified to film with Taylor right now,” a source exclusively told Us one day after the news made headlines, noting that production is “shut down” at the moment and “the women have made it clear they don’t want to be around her because they see her as a major liability.”
Prior to the ordeal, Taylor’s SLOMW costar Mayci Neeley revealed that the mom of three appeared to be “in a better mindset” while away from Utah and filming season 22 of The Bachelorette.

Disney/Sami Drasin“That was an opportunity for her to be forced to be away from the toxic cycle that she was in with Dakota, at least for a period of time, to hopefully figure out what she wants and what she needs,” Mikayla Matthews exclusively told Us on March 2 of Taylor’s change. “I’m excited to watch The Bachelorette back, because I don’t know [what happened].”
While Taylor was seemingly in a good place while shooting the ABC dating show — which was filmed prior to her return to SLOMW — now, her suitors are in a bind as her and Dakota’s drama unfolds publicly.
