Hey, it's Cory with the story with entertainment and celebrity news. Today, your daily pop culture update. Disney Entertainment Television has pulled the upcoming season of the Bachelorette, starring Taylor, Frankie Paul. The decision came after a video surfaced, showing her throwing a chair at her then boyfriend during a past altercation in front of her child. The show was set to premiere on March 22nd, marking her as the first lead from outside the franchise. Paul rose to fame on secret lives of Mormon wives, where she recently hooked up with her on-again, off-again, ex-Dakota Mortensen, while filming season 4. She rapped production on the dating show in late December, but just days before airtime, Utah police confirmed they were investigating a domestic assault between the pair in late February. Allegations win both ways, and they share a young son. The network spokesperson emphasized support for the family amid the fallout. Paul had been promoting the show, and claimed she went no contact with Mortensen.

A source close to him said he knew the probe might leak, but wouldn't push it out, as he prioritizes co-parenting despite their rocky history. This isn't Paul's first headline-grabbing incident. Back in 2023, she faced a rest over that chair-thuring episode with another ex, following her divorce tied to a swinging scandal. She has kids from her previous marriage, too. Paul has now filed for a restraining order against her, citing real fears for his safety and their child's well-being after the recent clash. Production on the next Mormon-Wive season remains paused, leaving fans wondering what's next for Paul. This episode is brought to you in partnership with our sponsor.
