“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” is set to pick cameras back up following an unexpected pause involving Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen, TMZ has learned.
Production sources tell TMZ … the Hulu series is going back into production soon, after being put on pause in the middle of March — following a heated blow up between TFP and Mortensen during filming of season 5.
Our sources were not clear on whether TFP or Mortensen will be a part of filming with the rest of the cast when cameras go back up.
We broke the story … cameras had gone down suddenly due to a recent alleged domestic violence incident, where Mortensen went to cops in West Jordan, Utah with a third allegation of domestic violence against Taylor. The alleged incident is said to have taken place in early to mid-2024 and was captured on video.
As we reported … police investigated the abuse claims, and their findings are now with the district attorney for possible charges. In addition, the production company hired a third-party investigator to look into cast members making unspecified accusations … beyond their usual on-camera drama. The status of that investigation is unclear.
TMZ broke the news … TFP will NOT be prosecuted for her alleged involvement in a couple of domestic violence incidents in Utah involving her ex, Dakota Mortensen. This is a big deal since it was those accusations — and footage from a prior incident we reported — which torpedoed her two shows, “The Bachelorette” being the other.
