Oh, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 2, I need you immediately. There’s a new rumor that one of the show’s most toxic couples, Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen, have called it quits after two years of on and off dating. I’m… shocked! JK. I’ll admit I didn’t have an amazing feeling about this romance, given the whole February 2023 violent fight incident that resulted in Taylor getting arrested. Not to mention, Dakota was weirdly possessive and annoying about the girls’ Vegas trip and, well, generally gives bright red flag vibes. Although Taylor and Dakota haven’t confirmed a breakup yet, they’ve both shared hints that their relationship is over. Here’s why fans think Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen broke up.
Did Taylor And Dakota From Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives Break Up?
Taylor And Dakota Breakup Rumors, Explained
Fans think Taylor and Dakota broke up because of Taylor’s recent cryptic social media posts. On September 22, the queen of the mormons posted a TikTok video of her wearing baggy sweatpants and dancing with tears in her eyes. “Not me slowly morphing into 2022 me,” she wrote in her caption. As we all know, 2022 was not the best time for her because of the soft-swinging scandal of it all. Taylor’s costars and frenemies (??) were quick to leave supportive comments. Mayci, the blonde Switzerland of the girl group, wrote an encouraging comment: “This new chapter will be better than ever! Lean on us, we got you babe.” Mikayla added, “Always here for you bb.”
The following day, Taylor posted another TikTok that could signal a split. She shared a clip of herself watching Secret Lives and wrote, “Too triggering to watch the show but I at least wanted to see my son’s birth.” Her MomTok pal, Demi, wrote in the comments, “freaking love you tay,” adding the heart hands emoji.
Not to mention, Taylor also recently posted a photo of her and her new baby on her Insta story and wrote, “Here’s to a new chapter of my life, I think [it’ll] be the most challenging, yet most rewarding.” How many different ways can one say “I’m single now” without actually saying “I’m single now”? I think this might be a new record.
On September 21, a TikToker named Emily Schwartz posted a video, theorizing about Taylor and Dakota’s possible split. She claimed, “A journalist never reveals her sources, but I will tell you this: They are broken up. Is it forever? I don’t know.” Emily also pointed to Taylor’s telling Insta Story about a “new chapter.” And who showed up in her comments section, you’re wondering? Dakota himself! “Stay tuned…” he teased. Yeah, that doesn’t seem like a denial to me.
But if Taylor and Dakota really did call it quits, it must’ve, like, just happened. You may recall that on September 9, Taylor appeared on Today and opened up about their (still existent at the time) relationship. “Things have gotten a lot better,” she shared, explaining that she and Dakota have been in couples therapy and coaching recently. “They’re kind of helping us to communicate and learn all these things while taking on the loud noise, which is really cool.”
RIP, Taykota… I think.
