Mormon Wives filming halted amid domestic dispute allegations.

Production on season 5 of the Hulu series Mormon Wives has been suspended. This decision follows an alleged domestic violence dispute that occurred weeks prior in Utah involving cast members Taylor Frankie Paul and her ex-partner Dakota Mortensen. A spokesperson for the Draper City Police Department confirmed an ongoing domestic assault investigation with allegations made by both parties.

In light of the incident, cast members reportedly convened with executives from Hulu and Disney to discuss a potential hiatus from filming. One unnamed cast member expressed concern over the dangerous and sad situation, highlighting the difficulty in navigating it due to their friendship with Taylor.

Mikayla, another cast member, affirmed that the filming halt was a collective decision by the female cast members. She stated they did not feel comfortable continuing to film given the circumstances. This pause comes after Demi, a former cast member, spoke to TMZ on March 13 about her intermittent role on the show, emphasizing her prioritization of peace and mental health.
