Taylor Frankie Paul's Ex Calls Cops Over Protective Order

Dakota Mortensen, the ex-partner of Taylor Frankie Paul, contacted authorities on the evening of June 26, 2026, to inquire about a protective order. The questions reportedly concerned visitation exchanges for their 2-year-old son, Ever, and whether the order had been violated.

Police spoke with both Paul and Mortensen, gathering statements before forwarding the case to the District Attorney's office for a decision on whether a violation occurred. The investigation will conclude unless the district attorney finds a breach of the order.

Following the police contact, Paul expressed her frustration on social media, referring to the incident as the same person contacting authorities again, which she deemed obsessive. This event occurs amidst a contentious custody battle between the ex-partners, marked by past domestic violence allegations.

Mortensen had previously alleged physical violence by Paul in February 2026, which Paul has denied. Mortensen was granted temporary custody, and a protective order was issued, requiring both parties to maintain a 100-foot distance. Recently, a judge ruled that Paul no longer requires supervised visitation and can have Ever on alternate weekends and one midweek day, without overnight stays.

A court hearing is scheduled for July 8, 2026, for another custody proceeding. Paul also has two other children with her ex-husband, Tate Paul.
