Taylor Frankie Paul Faces Investigation for Third Domestic Violence Case

Taylor Frankie Paul faces ongoing legal challenges as Utah police investigate a third alleged domestic violence incident involving her ex-partner, Dakota Mortensen. The situation has led to separate investigations by West Jordan and Draper authorities.

Alleged Incident

Mortensen reported an alleged violent incident from 2024 to the West Jordan police, under instruction from the Draper Police Department due to jurisdictional reasons. Police are reviewing several videos of the alleged event but have not disclosed specific dates.

Legal Proceedings

The Salt Lake County District Attorney's office is examining the most recent allegations against Paul for potential charges. This investigation follows earlier, separate reports received by Draper police on February 24 and 25 regarding both parties.

Impact on Career

A video released last week shows Paul allegedly attacking Mortensen in front of their daughter, leading ABC to cancel her season of "The Bachelorette.” Filming for "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" Season 5 remains halted.

Paul is currently restricted from seeing her child until a hearing scheduled for April 7. More details can be found here.
