Taylor Frankie Paul Addresses Season 5 Filming Status for 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives'

April 21, 2026

Taylor Frankie Paul is pushing back against reports suggesting she'll sit out production when The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives gears up for season five.

The Hulu series halted filming in March following a domestic violence case involving Taylor and ex Dakota Mortensen. This week brought word that the production is resuming, along with claims that both Taylor and Dakota would be sidelined from the upcoming season.

Taylor isn't accepting that narrative. Taking to Instagram, she responded to the reports with a simple correction: "Interesting, that's not the call I got."

While her participation in the fifth season remains in flux, the show's producers haven't closed the door on her return. According to reports, Taylor "has the option to return," leaving the decision in her hands. The production team is reportedly eager to have her back on the series.

The filming pause came after the domestic violence case between Taylor and Dakota led to an investigation by authorities. The Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office subsequently cleared Taylor of any charges related to the matter.
