Taylor Frankie Paul

The OG Of Mormon Wives

Taylor is perhaps the reason why The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives exists. In 2022, she was at the center of all the mess after revealing that her seemingly perfect marriage with Tate was coming to an end. She disrupted TikTok after stating she and Tate were in a swinging "arrangement" but betrayed her husband by "going all the way" with a different guy in the group. The story was so scandalous that it made international headlines, as Taylor didn't have an issue spilling all the tea on the social media platform.

After itting her mistakes, some Mormon mom-influencers shunned Taylor despite being involved in the drama. In July, Taylor introduced Dakota Mortensen to her TikTok followers, calling him the guy she "cheated with." The pair recently welcomed their first child together - Taylor's third child. According to ABC4 News, Taylor pleaded guilty to aggravated assault charges in August 2023. The influencer was accused of hitting Dakota and injuring her child during the fight. Therefore, there will be more than cheating scandals that Taylor will bring to The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives once the series drops.

The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives season 1 premieres on September 6.
