Taylor Frankie Paul sent a rather NSFW message as she stepped out after the bombshell cancellation of her season of The Bachelorette.
The disgraced 31-year-old reality star was spotted in Salt Lake City, UT on Saturday wearing a blue Nodpod ‘Can’t Wait To Sleep With You’ sweatshirt.
Despite the drama Paul is now embroiled in, she managed to crack a smile.
Last Thursday, ABC pulled the entire season 22 of The Bachelorette from airing Sunday following the leak of cell phone footage of the hot-tempered brunette throwing chairs at her babydaddy Dakota Mortensen, one of which accidentally hit her daughter Indy, in a 2023 incident.
The tone deaf tagline for the $30 million-budget season read: ‘If you don’t fit the mold, break it.’

Taylor Frankie Paul sent a bit of a NSFW message as she stepped out after the bombshell cancellation of her season of The Bachelorette
Paul is still on probation until August 4 following the plea deal she accepted for aggravated assault for hurling her phone, a wooden playset and heavy metal barstools at Mortensen in a drunken rage.
The newly released cell phone footage the 33-year-old Basin Tiling owner had showed police at her Herriman home revealed one of the barstools accidentally struck eight-year-old Indy.
In police bodycam footage, the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star admitted she was so intoxicated she had peed herself.
Paul faced up to five years in state prison had she been convicted of two counts of 3rd degree felony domestic violence in the presence of a child with injury, a Class A misdemeanor of child abuse with injury and Class B misdemeanor criminal mischief.
Last Thursday, Mortensen was granted temporary custody of their two-year-old son Ever and Paul must remain ‘100 feet away’ with ‘no parent time allowed’ until the April 7 court hearing – according to People.
The on/off couple got into physical fights as recent as February with him alleging she choked him, ripped his necklace off and scratched his neck because of his hookup with TSLOMW co-star Shinia Powell.
The Utah Division of Child and Family Services have reportedly received numerous calls from Mortensen alleging abuse and there’s still an open investigation including psychological evaluations ordered for both parties.

Paul also welcomed two children – daughter Indy, eight, and son Ocean, five – during her five-year marriage to ex-husband Tate Paul, which ended in 2022 following a ‘soft-swinging’ scandal.
‘Taylor is very grateful for ABC’s support as she prioritizes her family’s safety and security. After years of silently suffering extensive mental and physical abuse as well as threats of retaliation, Taylor is finally gaining the strength to face her accuser and taking steps to ensure that she and her children are protected from any further harm,’ the Mormon #MomToker said in a statement.
‘There are too many women who are suffering in silence as they survive aggressive, jealous ex-partners who refuse to let them move on with their lives. Taylor has remained silent out of fear of further abuse, retaliation and public shaming. She is currently exploring all of her options, seeking support, and preparing to own and share her story.’
The scandal has prompted calls for ABC/Hulu/Disney to cancel the entire Bachelor franchise as the networks were fully aware of Paul’s violent criminal past when they cast her last September.
Five of the 22 contestants who competed to win the heart of the Utah native ‘are mulling over legal action’ against ABC and Warner Bros. Discovery – according to TMZ.

The Bachelorette never had the best track record for lasting marriages as only four couples have remained together after 21 seasons.
Only three couples remain married from The Bachelor after 29 seasons while the odds are far better on Bachelor in Paradise where 13 couples remain married after 10 seasons.
