Taylor Frankie Paul is done with The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives — and she’s leaving the Hulu reality show amid a whole lot of drama.
The reality star announced her exit Monday, and in the process, she accused her co-stars of bullying her while she deals with ongoing legal and custody battles involving her exes.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Taylor thanked the network for supporting her and allowing her to return to the show following the chaos surrounding her abruptly canceled season of The Bachelorette.
But she made it clear that she’s no longer interested in continuing under the current circumstances.
“However, I don’t desire to move forward like this,” Taylor wrote.
Taylor also claimed that she had been the target of a months-long “pile on” involving nearly the entire cast.
“Almost the entire cast plus some, going at me….laughing about my kids is disgusting,” she alleged.
Taylor went on to claim that some of the women knew what she had been dealing with over the past several months but continued to criticize her anyway.
She specifically described the situation as “bullying for months,” while also claiming that messages had been sent to her by a group that wanted to push her “to the point of committing suicide.”
She said the messages arrived while she was on her way to film the Season 5 introduction, which helps explain why she did not appear in portions of it.
Naturally, this latest drama comes at a particularly messy time for Taylor.
Her custody battles with ex-husband Tate Paul and ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen have continued to play out amid a series of legal developments.
Just last week, we reported that Taylor had allegedly failed multiple court-ordered drug tests, resulting in her parenting time being reduced to eight hours per week. Taylor has not publicly addressed those allegations.
Taylor’s apparent Mormon Wives exit also comes shortly after co-star Mikayla Matthews announced that she would not continue with the series, citing Taylor’s return as a major reason for her decision.
Mikayla has since doubled down, saying she still does not plan to return despite Taylor’s apparent departure.
As for Taylor, she ended her lengthy statement with a surprisingly somber assessment of the situation.
“It’s a pleasure to remove myself so they can continue,” she wrote, adding that she had nearly convinced herself she deserved “all this pain.”
“My question has been how much suffering and scrutiny is going to be enough…I’m just relieved to be out.”
So, yeah. Whatever happens next for The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, it seems increasingly unlikely that the MomTok drama is going away anytime soon.

A new era of the United States men’s national team is upon us. Yes, Mauricio Pochettino is still the head coach, and many of the familiar faces from the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be in the mix for 2030, but the competition is as stiff as ever, and at positions that were previously viewed as untouchable. Let’s take a look at where some of the key figures in the U.S. player pool stand ahead of the international window in Alexi Lalas’ U.S. Weekend Stock Watch: Alexi: You’ve got to be a little happy — and dare I say, proud — of seeing Christian Pulisic, given what’s happened over this past year and even what’s happened recently, starting and not just making an impact, but being voted the best player, being involved in both goals and being associated with a moment of positivity that Christian Pulisic and AC Milan needed. Alexi: You can make a case that, in this window, even if Christian Pulisic had been involved, there are more poeple excited about seeing Cavan Sullivan than Christian Pulisic. We know who Christian Pulisic is. That doesn’t mean he can’t improve, but he is what he is. America is looking for young talent and new look when it comes to the national team and that’s why there’s so much tension with Cavan Sullivan as he comes into this new camp, and he comes in on fire. Alexi: We all recognize that many of these players are looking for a foot in the door when it comes to Europe, and in that sense, they’re not just getting there; they’re now actually playing and playing well and scoring goals. It’s fun to see this brigade of young players who are using the Championship for what it is and what it isn’t as this stepping stone. Alexi: This is great, to be associated with the type of win, but I feel like a broken record with Johnny. This is what he is and what he has done. He gets our hopes up, but ultimately, can he translate it if and when he is with the U.S. men’s national team? You can be a really, really good player, and sometimes it just doesn’t translate, and you can bang your head as to why it doesn’t. You just have to guard against this idea that you’re leaving talent on the sideline; that we are wasting talent. Alexi: If you’re looking at it for the Pepi fanbase, this sucks because, finally, he gets this opportunity after being second fiddle to Balogun, and fairly so, to come in and claim it for himself, especially in this new-look national team. On the other side, it’s just another opportunity because I think it’s going to be wide-open up top in this camp when it comes to who plays. Alexi: If you’re Pochettino, do you say ‘I can still get something out of him,’ even with all of these changes and his obvious inability to adjust under that? There was a time that he was in pen there on that right side, and I wasn’t alone. Times have changed. Yunus Musah is back in the fold and Tim Weah looks to be on the way out. Alexi: I’m all for supporting your team, I’m all for die-hard fandom out there, but it has to come with some perspective. There’s nothing romantic about this, there’s nothing cool about this, and as far as that purity pest about how much you care about your team, it’s not relevant to what you set on fire, including the bus.Latest Sports News from FOX Sports
Bunnie XO, ex-wife of Jelly Roll, is embracing her new chapter as a single woman and is making it clear she’s not concerned about what anyone else thinks.
The Dumb Blonde podcast host, 46, is specifcially defending the opinions online about the 22-year age gap between her and her new romance with 24-year-old Dylan Wolf. The negative comments started to flood in in after she posted a video of her and Wolf to social media, documenting the “Malibu Cowboy” eating at Waffle House for the very first time.
“POV: It’s his first time at Waffle House,” the post read.
Even though the video’s original sound has been replaced by Mel McDaniel’s “Baby’s Got Her Blue Jeans On,” viewers can see the pair laughing together while sitting at a table with Bunnie’s close circle of friends. She pours the syrup on his waffles, while he attempts to feed her a bite of the breakfast treat, but jokingly misses her mouth several times.
The comment section quickly filled with users pointing out that Wolf is “much younger” with some even poking fun at the age different by saying things like “He don’t even have a drivers license yet. 🤦♂️.”
Bunnie clapped back at the criticism, making it clear that she’s simply enjoying herself as she navigates coming out of a difficult time.
“Hey guys, I’m having fun & he gave me my smile back 💞 Ya girl is living her best life – let meeeee k thanks byeeeee,” she stated.
The video surfaced just a few weeks after Bunnie told TODAY’s Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones that she loves “the streets” and is “never going back.” She also admitted she has been enjoying a “baddie Bunnie summer” after receiving countless DM’s from potential love interests, calling it a “boy buffet.”
“I’m having the freaking time of my life and I’m just thriving. And I never thought that it would turn out to be such a blessing, but it’s such a blessing and I’m so thankful,” she added.
This also isn’t the first time that the Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic author has been spotted with Wolf. In fact, their budding romance stems all the way back to July, when they were seen kissing at her ex Jelly Roll’s bar, Goodnight Nashville.
Bunnie spoke about the moment on her Dumb Blonde podcast, saying, “I am healing out loud. So what? I got kissed under the f—ing fireworks. So, I hope I get kissed under f—ing 10 more firework shows, you know?”
At the time, she confirmed that she was “not dating anybody” and also didn’t want to be with anybody as her heard was locked up tight following the recent heartbreak.
Coming off nearly a decade of marriage, Bunnie XO seems content to keep things fun and light as she takes on this new chapter one day at a time.
