MomTok No More, Taylor Frankie Paul Deletes Her TikTok and Instagram Accounts

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Taylor Frankie Paul has had her fair share of criticism lately. Following recent domestic violence allegations and the ensuing media circus, the reality TV star is stepping away from the social media spotlight. And for someone who rose to fame for her #MomTok TikTok videos, it doesn't seem like this was an easy decision.

An investigation stemming from allegations made by Paul's ex (and father of her third child), Dakota Mortensen, shut down filming of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' newest season. While there was a temporary pause, Hulu resumed taping the popular reality series after the Salt Lake County District Attorney's office decided not to file charges. But, per People, Paul will not re-join her castmates on this season of the show.

Even though The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' fifth season is back on track, the same isn't necessarily true for Paul's other current venture-The Bachelorette. ABC pulled the plug on the romantic reality series after a video of Paul hurling chairs at Mortensen surfaced.

Rob Mills, the executive president of unscripted for Walt Disney TV, recently shared an update on both of Paul's shows with Variety, explaining, "In regard to Taylor, we're really making sure that-as a human being, on a personal level-she's being taken care of first and foremost." On the subject of The Bachelorette, the exec said, "Everything with that is one day at a time. There's really nothing new to report right now."

Mills also shed some light on the network's decision to choose Paul as the latest Bachelorette, "I had met with Taylor. She had said, "Look, I'm raising three kids with different fathers; one, I have a phenomenal co-parenting relationship with. The other one is a challenge, but I'm really looking for a partner and somebody who can help me." Her motives were very sincere," But alas, it looks like Paul didn't get her wish, and her fans will have to wait to see if The Bachelorette will ever air.

Given the scrutiny Paul has faced and the intensity of the media spotlight, the parent of three, once a viral sensation for her MomTok videos, is now taking a major step back. So if you want to check her Instagram or TikTok pages for updates, you won't see anything there. As of April 23, Taylor's Instagram page just has the "Sorry, this page isn't available" message, and her TikTok says, "Couldn't find this account."

Like the fate of The Bachelorette, Paul's socials are still an unknown. The reality TV star is yet to release a statement on when, or if, she will reinstate her accounts.
