UPDATE: Tensions erupted during the season 3 reunion of *Mormon Wives*, culminating in cast member Dakota Mortensen storming off set in a fit of anger. The explosive confrontation, which aired on July 15, 2023, showcased a heated exchange between Dakota and Taylor Frankie Paul over his past inappropriate relationship, leaving viewers stunned.
As the reunion unfolded, emotions ran high when the discussion turned to Dakota’s admitted sexting of a close family friend while Taylor was pregnant with their son, Ever. The atmosphere quickly shifted from tears to shouting as Dakota became increasingly agitated. “That’s it, I’m done!” he shouted, before dramatically ripping off his microphone and storming out, declaring, “Get this f***ing stupid f***ing mic off me!”
The confrontation reached a boiling point when Taylor expressed her regret over choosing Dakota to be Ever’s father. “When I look at Ever, I feel, this is my fault,” she confessed. Dakota retaliated, insisting, “You don’t think I’m a good dad, Taylor?!”
The reunion also featured Dakota attempting to apologize to Taylor’s parents for his past actions, but the gesture was met with hostility. “I can’t accept anything that comes out of your mouth because it’s all bull***t,” Taylor’s father, Jeremy, firmly stated.
Host Stassi Schroeder intervened in an attempt to diffuse the escalating tension. However, Dakota’s frustration only intensified, leading to his abrupt exit from the set. A crew member promptly escorted him away, leaving the remaining cast members in stunned silence.
Meanwhile, Taylor has moved on to a new chapter in her life, currently filming her season of *The Bachelorette* in Los Angeles and other locations across the country. Just last weekend, she was spotted on a date with a contestant in New York City.
In addition to navigating her new reality television journey, Taylor and Dakota are currently embroiled in court discussions over custody arrangements for their son, Ever.
The dramatic reunion episode is now available for streaming on Hulu and Disney Plus. This latest development has sent shockwaves through the fandom, generating buzz and conversation online. As audiences tune in, many are left wondering how the fallout will impact the relationships among the cast moving forward.
