Taylor Frankie Paul is a prominent TikTok influencer and reality TV personality, best known for her central role in Hulu’s reality series "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives." She gained widespread attention in 2022 after publicly revealing her involvement in a "soft-swinging" arrangement within her Mormon community in Utah, which led to her divorce from ex-husband Tate Paul. This revelation sparked significant controversy and brought national attention to the #MomTok group of Mormon influencers.

In the series, Taylor's life is portrayed with unfiltered honesty, showcasing her personal struggles and relationships. Following her divorce, she began a tumultuous relationship with Dakota Mortensen, with whom she shares a son named Ever. Their relationship has been marked by challenges, including a domestic incident in February 2023 that led to Taylor's arrest and subsequent guilty plea to aggravated assault. Despite these difficulties, Taylor and Dakota continue to co-parent their child and navigate their complex relationship.

Taylor is also the mother of two children from her previous marriage: daughter Indy and son Ocean. She maintains an amicable co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband, Tate. Beyond her personal life, Taylor has amassed a significant following on TikTok, where she shares lifestyle and parenting content.
