Taylor Frankie Paul, the Mormon TikTok influencer who famously exposed her “soft swinging” behavior, was arrested early Saturday on assault and domestic violence charges.
Based on Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Office records obtained by The Post, the 28-year-old Paul was arrested in Herriman, Utah, and booked in jail at 1:56 a.m. Saturday.
She was released hours later, at 10:35 a.m., on three misdemeanor charges: assault, criminal mischief, and domestic violence within the presence of a toddler, records show.
Paul shares a 5-year-old daughter, Indy, and a 2-year-old son, Ocean, with ex-husband Tate Paul.
The Post contacted Paul and the Herriman Police Department for comment.
Paul sparked scandal in May 2022 when she revealed she and Tate were supposed “swingers,” swapping partners inside her close-knit circle of influencer friends with limitations. She confessed she went “too far” with someone’s spouse, and Tate filed for divorce.
She has since began dating Dakota Mortensen, 30, whom she features in her TikToks.
Mortensen was tight-lipped on details surrounding Paul’s arrest, claiming to the Each day Mail on Thursday, “I’m not even allowed to talk along with her.”
He did, nonetheless, note that he desired to “make clear a couple of things,” alleging that he didn’t call 911, but thinks a neighbor can have. The true estate agent and tiling company boss told the outlet that he and Paul “didn’t argue” and that she “never hurt anyone intentionally.”
“I’m going to attend for all the things to come back out before I speak on it,” Mortensen said.
“I don’t even want the reality to come back out. She’s so broken straight away. I attempted to assist her,” he reportedly said. “She’s a great mom, she’s going through loads in her life straight away. Taylor’s been struggling, it’s been a tough yr for her. She is racked with guilt on her cheating scandal that cost her her marriage.”
The Post reached out to Mortensen for comment.
Paul posted cryptic TikToks in May 2022, claiming her life was “falling apart” while showing clips of herself moving boxes and admitting to getting divorced and starting therapy.
Since her marriage ended, Paul’s TikTok account has became a tell-all, nodding to the secrets of other mom influencers and musing she might even get booted from the church.
In August, Paul revealed her battle with depression and claimed her weight was all the way down to nearly 90 kilos.
Her last TikTok was posted last week as she invited her 4 million followers to observe as she cleaned out her messy automobile.
Paul previously faced backlash for showing off her “disgusting,” dirty house on the platform.
