Who is Taylor Frankie Paul?
Taylor Frankie Paul rose to fame on TikTok, where she now has 5.7 million followers. She made headlines in 2022 when she announced that she and her husband Tate Paul were getting a divorce following their soft swinging scandal.
The following year, Taylor was arrested on misdemeanor charges of assault, criminal mischief and commission of domestic violence in the presence of a child following an incident with her ex Dakota Mortensen, according to the Herriman City Police Department. Per ABC4 Utah, she pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and her other charges were dismissed.
Taylor went on to star on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, which premiered in September 2024. Throughout the series, she’s opened up about several aspects of her life, including the swinging scandal, her arrest, her miscarriages, her relationship and breakups with Dakota and the state of her friendships with her costars, including Whitney Leavitt, Layla Taylor, Demi Engemann, Jessi Ngatikaura, Jen Affleck, Mikayla Matthews, Mayci Neeley and Miranda McWhorter.
And while Taylor knows some of the men may have preconceived notions about her past, she notes that she’s changed.
“There has been such progress too that it’s just not who I am anymore,” she said on Call Her Daddy. “It was three years ago. It was a very short-lived learning lesson.”
