- Authorities are investigating alleged domestic violence incidents.
Whitney Leavitt, a star of the Hulu series 'The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives,' has spoken out about the domestic violence scandal surrounding co-star Taylor Frankie Paul. Leavitt addressed the situation in an interview, emphasizing that the safety of human beings, especially children, is paramount and should not be tolerated.
The ongoing controversy has led to the suspension of production for the fifth season of 'The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives.' This Hulu series follows a group of 'MomTok' influencers navigating scandals related to swinging, their faith, and friendships. The show's future remains uncertain as a third-party investigator looks into unspecified accusations among the cast.
The scandal involves allegations of domestic violence between Taylor Frankie Paul and her ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen. Disturbing footage of Paul attacking Mortensen in front of her daughter surfaced recently, leading to the cancellation of her 'Bachelorette' season. The West Jordan Police Department confirmed an ongoing investigation into these alleged incidents, with no charges filed yet.
Mortensen has been granted a restraining order against Paul, whom he described as an immediate threat. Paul's representatives claim she has suffered years of abuse and is now seeking support. Mortensen, however, denies these claims and is focused on their son's safety.
