Taylor Frankie Paul, a famous TikTok influencer and reality TV star, is once again in the spotlight with the new season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives on Hulu. The show follows a group of Utah-based Mormon moms who became popular on TikTok for their dance videos and parenting content. Known as “MomTok,” the group’s friendships are often filled with drama, and Taylor is usually at the center of it. She admits that watching emotional scenes later can be tough because it brings back old memories and conflicts.
How Mormon Wives Star Taylor Frankie Paul Transformed
Taylor created the “MomTok” community in 2020, inviting other Mormon mothers to join her in making fun videos about motherhood, beauty, and daily life. The group quickly became famous online. However, Taylor’s image took a hit in 2022 when she revealed during a live stream that she and her then-husband, Tate Paul, were part of a “soft-swinging” group. This meant couples would flirt and interact romantically with others, but with certain limits. Her confession shocked fans and led to her divorce, making her one of the most talked-about personalities on TikTok.

Before joining The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Taylor nearly became a cast member of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. She later said she was rejected because producers thought she didn’t have enough drama in her life. Soon after, her personal life became even more public when she was arrested in 2023 following a domestic dispute with her then-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. Taylor later accepted a plea deal and spent one day in jail. Despite this, she and Dakota continued dating for a while and even had a baby together before breaking up in 2024.
Today, Taylor is a mother of three Indy, Ocean, and Ever. She shares her two older kids with her ex-husband and her youngest with her ex-boyfriend. She has also opened up about her difficult childhood, revealing that she met her biological father only once before he passed away. This painful experience still affects her deeply.
