Representatives for Taylor were contacted for comment, but few public statements have been issued. Social channels tied to the star have been quiet since the reports surfaced.
What led to legal conflict: custody and protection orders
Taylor is entangled in a custody dispute with her ex-partner, Dakota Mortensen, over their 2-year-old son, Ever. The conflict escalated after an alleged incident earlier this year.
- February: Authorities probed a reported domestic incident between Taylor, 32, and Dakota, 33.
- March: Dakota obtained a temporary protective order and temporary custody of Ever.
- April: Prosecutors decided not to file criminal charges in the case.
- April: Taylor filed and was granted her own protective order against Dakota.
Court filings seen by media claimed physical aggression during a February confrontation. Both sides allege the other acted aggressively. The exes are ordered to stay at least 100 feet apart.
Recent visitation ruling and upcoming hearing
In June a judge adjusted visitation terms for Taylor. Her visitation is no longer supervised. She now gets alternative weekend visits and one non-overnight midweek day. Both parties return to court on July 8.
On-set fallout: shows paused and pulled amid controversy
Production on season 5 of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives halted after news of the police investigation. The show paused while producers reviewed the situation.
Footage that surfaced of an earlier altercation also influenced networks. ABC removed Taylor’s season of The Bachelorette from its schedule when video from 2023 came to light. A network spokesperson said the decision prioritized supporting the family.
New legal move from ex-husband Tate Paul and family details
On June 30, reports said Taylor’s ex, Tate Paul, filed for a temporary restraining order against her. Tate and Taylor share two children: daughter Indy, 8, and son Ocean, 6.
- Tate is reportedly seeking sole custody of their children.
- The couple divorced in 2022, after marrying in 2016.
- Their split was public and followed a viral scandal related to their personal lives.
Those developments add complexity to Taylor’s family and legal situation.
