Taylor Frankie Paul is starting a new era in reality TV as the next face of «The Bachelorette» for the 22nd season. In 2026, the star of «Mormon Women’s Secret Lives» will be looking for love in a new man, all after her divorce from ex-husband Tate Paul and ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen. After recently ending her relationship with Dakota, some fans are wondering what ultimately led to their breakup.
After the first season of «Mormon Women’s Secret Lives» ended on a high note, Taylor revealed at the beginning of the second season: «Right after Ever was born, Dakota and I were living together and were blissful with our new baby, and I even thought about getting engaged. And then I found out he had been lying all this time».
If you haven’t been following the drama of the Mormon women, we’ll break it all down for you here.
Taylor was previously married to ex-husband Tate from 2016 until their divorce in 2022 after her scandal on #MomTok, where she revealed their agreement to participate in «soft swinging».
The term «soft swing» refers to consensual non-monogamous relationships with partners of other people.
«For Tate and me, I think it’s better for us to part ways and get divorced, and sort of find ourselves and what makes us happy, start fresh», - Taylor previously said when they decided to divorce. «I think there was a lot of toxicity around us, and we were obviously participating in it… And I think we need a new start and wake up. It was a good wake-up call for us and our whole friend group».
After divorcing Tate, Taylor started dating Dakota in 2022. They had periods of relationship and a serious issue in 2023 after a fight. At that time, Taylor was arrested and detained on charges of threatening murder, two cases of domestic violence in the presence of a child, violence against a child with injuries, and hooliganism. In August of the same year, she pleaded guilty to threatening murder, and the other charges were dismissed with prejudice. She made a plea deal.
By 2025, Taylor and Dakota had finally split after the birth of their son Ever.
Taylor and Dakota broke up because he had been unfaithful to her, which he admitted.
«I lied», - Dakota confessed in one of the episodes of «Mormon Women’s Secret Lives». «I always did it selfishly to protect myself. I just wanted to be honest with her, but it’s too late now… I would do anything to have my family, to be with Taylor. And yes, unfortunately, I caused her a lot of pain and ruined everything with my actions».
Yes! Taylor and Disney confirmed that she was chosen to lead the 22nd season of «The Bachelorette», - becoming the first participant in the franchise not belonging to Bachelor Nation
