Bachelorette Star Taylor Charged After Violent Video Surfaces
7 Apr
Summary
- Reality star Taylor faces charges after assault video emerged.
- Her Bachelorette season was canceled due to the released footage.
- Dakota obtained a temporary protective order and child custody.
Weeks after Dakota was granted a temporary protective order and temporary custody of their two-year-old son, Ever, Taylor faces legal repercussions. Allegations of domestic violence between Taylor and Dakota surfaced in March, with investigations initiated by Draper City Police. Both individuals have denied the claims made against them.
The alleged incident prompted a halt in production for season 5 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Days before Taylor's season of The Bachelorette was set to air, a video from 2023 surfaced, showing the reality star assaulting Dakota.
Following the video's release, ABC canceled Taylor's season, stating their focus was on supporting the family. Taylor's representative stated she was prioritizing her family's safety and was gaining strength to share her story after experiencing alleged abuse.
Dakota, in a separate statement, denied the claims and expressed focus on their son's safety. Authorities in West Jordan, Utah, are also reviewing claims from Dakota about a third alleged domestic dispute with Taylor in February 2024.
