The drama keeps mounting for The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul.
According to a new report, her ex-husband, Tate Paul, filed a request for a restraining order and sole custody of their children, Indy and Ocean, today.
TMZ obtained the legal documents, which note that Tate filed the request with their 2022 divorce proceedings.
The documents also revealed Tate submitted five exhibits and a declaration in support of his request. The filings are sealed, and thus it is unknown what made Tate seek a restraining order.
The news comes fresh on the heels of a report that Taylor’s ex, Dakota Mortensen, called the cops on her again.
Taylor first revealed she had a new issue with law enforcement, writing on her Instagram Story, “Cops called on me again THIS WEEK… what are the odds? And it’s not people… It’s ONE person, the same person. It’s obsessive.”
While she didn’t say who was behind phoning the police, TMZ spoke to the Bluffdale Police Department, who told them that Dakota contacted them last Friday. He allegedly had concerns about the protective order he currently has with Taylor in regard to drop-off and custody of their shared child, Ever.
The outlet shared that officers reached out to Taylor to make sure they all had the same understanding regarding the protective order and drop-off hours. TMZ also stated that the matter is currently in the hands of the district attorney.
An insider close to the situation said there was no new altercation between Dakota and Taylor and that they have not seen or spoken to one another since their dual restraining orders were issued.
Recently, it was divulged that Taylor’s season of The Bachelorette may finally see the light of day, after it was shelved earlier this year amid domestic violence accusations and an explosive video that showed Taylor nearly hitting her daughter with a chair.
In the clip, Dakota tried to get away from an attack from Taylor that he felt was “physical abuse.”
“See, Taylor, this is all you do,” he told her as she kicked and hit him. “It’s the only thing you know how to do is hurt me. Hon, you think this is okay? It’s not okay.”
After insisting she doesn’t “give a f*ck,” Taylor grabbed a nearby chair and attempted to hit Dakota with it while her daughter was sitting on a nearby couch.
“Your daughter is right here,” Dakota retorted, as Taylor’s daughter began to sob. This led Dakota to beg Taylor to “please stop.”
“I’m done taking the blame for you,” he added, as she told him to “get the f*ck out.”
