Taylor Frankie Paul has broken her silence on the renewed custody battle with her ex-husband Tate Paul, sharing emotional posts and accusations against him and Dakota Mortensen.
The "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star posted pictures of injuries she claims were sustained during fights with Dakota, alleging the two men are ganging up on her and using their three shared children as pawns.
Court Ruling and Custody Conditions
TMZ previously reported that a Utah judge ordered Taylor to undergo drug and alcohol testing.
If results are clean, she will have unsupervised parenting time; a positive test would require supervised visits.
The ruling partially granted Tate's request to reconsider an earlier decision that denied his bid for a temporary restraining order to change custody of their two children, Indy and Ocean.
In her Friday posts, Taylor said she was lied to and manipulated by Tate when she opened up about her emotional struggles with Dakota, claiming he twisted her words and used them to "smear" her.
She shared shocking photos of injuries, some allegedly from the night of the infamous fight between her and Dakota, which was filmed and went viral after TMZ reported it.
That incident led ABC to pull her season of "The Bachelorette," but TMZ broke the news it may air as soon as this month.
Sources close to TFP say the 'Bachelorette' news triggered the recent court battles, and she is allegedly being targeted to keep the show shelved.
Taylor Frankie Paul repeatedly attacked Dakota Mortensen during the 2023 incident, for which she pleaded guilty to aggravated assault.
Video shows one of her children was struck during the fight.
