ABC Cancels Bachelorette After Taylor Frankie Paul's Violent Outburst

0:00It's March 19th. Here's your entertainment news in two minutes. ABC has canceled the upcoming season of The Bash LaRette starring Taylor Frankie Paul after a leaked video showed her in a violent outburst. The 31-year-old reality star was set to lead season 22, announced last September. But the footage derailed those plans. The video captures Paul throwing a metal chair at her ex, Dakota Mortensen, during an argument documented on her Hulu series The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Their on-again, off-again relationship played out publicly there, leading up to her big dating show gig. A five-year-old girl was nearby during the incident, reportedly getting a bump on her head. Mortensen even pointed that out, but things escalated anyway, prompting police involvement. Paul faced charges including misdemeanor assault, criminal mischief, and domestic violence in front of a child. She later pleaded guilty in a bans to aggravate an assault. ABC confirmed the decision today, citing the newly surfaced video.
