Taylor Frankie Paul Exits SLOMW Amid Cast Tensions and Custody Struggles

Taylor Frankie Paul announced on Instagram that she’s done with The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, saying stress and friction with fellow cast members have led her to not return for the show's sixth season, reportedly filming without her. Her exit follows a years‑long saga including a March domestic‑assault investigation in Utah involving her and ex Dakota Mortensen, a 2023 on‑set altercation in which she threw a chair, and a guilty‑plea in abeyance to a third‑degree aggravated assault, with mutual restraining orders issued. The Bachelorette production was previously halted and Disney shelved her; other cast members have voiced concerns about abuse and ethical issues. Paul says she’s relieved to step away from the show.
