Taylor Frankie Paul expressed gratitude to fans for their support following the release of a disturbing domestic violence video, as well as the temporary loss of custody of her son.
“I will NEVER forget the ones with me during this time
thank you,” the “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star commented under a TikTok video of a fan defending her on Monday.
“Prayer is exactly what pulls us through, prayer is the only reason I’m still standing.”
thank you,” the influencer commented under a TikTok video on Monday. Ashley Clemons/TikTokIn the clip, a TikToker called for an end to the “bullying” of Paul, 31, after a 2023 video of the latter attacking her ex Dakota Mortensen, 33, was leaked last week.
“It’s been an exhausting week, so I can’t even imagine how she’s feeling,” the TikToker said. “The internet is cruel. The audacity of people.”
The fan also shared that “everyone is free [to have] their opinions,” but that some of the critics “are so mean,” adding, “At the end of the day, we don’t know what happened. We don’t know the truth.”
The TikToker noted that only the exes know the events that played out ahead of the domestic violence video’s release.
“At the end of the day, what I want more than anything is for those children to be OK,” she added, referring to Paul and Mortensen’s son, Ever, 2, and her kids, Indy, 8, and Ocean, 5, whom she shares with ex-husband, Tate Paul.
Last week, a video of Paul attacking Mortensen and allegedly hitting her daughter, Indy, with a chair was leaked.
In the clip, the TV personality claimed she started hitting her ex because he allegedly threw her to the ground.
The clip was filmed leading up to Paul’s 2023 arrest, when she was charged with three felonies, including aggravated assault and domestic violence in the presence of a child. She was also charged with misdemeanors for child abuse and criminal mischief.
In a statement to Page Six, the reality star stated that the video “conveniently omits context” and called out Mortensen’s “never-ending, desperate, attention-seeking, destructive campaign to harm Taylor without any regard for the consequences for their child.”
Additionally, Paul previously shared during a September 2025 episode of “Call Her Daddy”that the charges had been dropped.
At the time, she was promoting her season of “The Bachelorette,” which has since been canceledin light of the video and a current domestic violence investigation stemming from a February incident.
Mortensen, who has been in an on-again, off-again relationship with Paul since 2022, was also granted temporary custodyof their son after he filed a restraining order against her last week.
