UPDATE: Tensions erupted during the season 3 reunion of Mormon Wives, leading to cast member Dakota Mortensen storming off set. The shocking incident unfolded during a heated exchange about Dakota’s past inappropriate relationship, which involved sexting a family friend while his partner, Taylor Frankie Paul, was pregnant.
The reunion, aired on October 15, 2023, was filled with screaming and emotional confrontations. Dakota, visibly enraged, ripped off his microphone and shouted, “That’s it, I’m done! Get this f***ing stupid f***ing mic off me!” just moments after an emotional back-and-forth with Taylor. The couple shares a one-year-old son, Ever, and their tumultuous relationship was a focal point of the reunion.
As tensions escalated, Taylor expressed her deep regret over choosing Dakota as Ever’s father, stating, “When I look at Ever, I feel, this is my fault. I’m so sorry I chose to have a child with this person.” Dakota, in response, vehemently defended his parenting, asserting, “I will never have anyone tell me I’m not [a good dad]!”
The dramatic exchange drew the attention of the host, Stassi Schroeder, who attempted to mediate the situation. However, Dakota’s frustration reached a breaking point, leading to his exit from the set, escorted by a crew member while the rest of the cast remained in stunned silence.
The reunion highlighted the ongoing custody negotiations for Ever between Dakota and Taylor, who was recently spotted filming her season of The Bachelorette across various locations, including a date in New York City just last weekend.
As this situation develops, fans eagerly anticipate the fallout from this explosive reunion. The full reunion episode is available for streaming on Hulu and Disney Plus.
