Leaked Voice Note Sparks Drama on Mormon Wives

0:00A leaked voice note from Jesse Draper to Dakota Mortensen has stirred up drama behind the scenes of secret lives of Mormon wives. In it, Draper says the production team pushed to frame Taylor Frankie Paul as the victim in her rocky relationship with Mortensen, even though the cast knows better. She accused producers of gaslighting everyone, claiming they're spinning the story to shield Paul and keep the show safe. Draper stressed at his parents, the cast sees the danger in the situation, especially with no real consequences for the kids involved. Paul and Mortensen dated on and off from 2022 to 2024, sharing a two-year-old son named Ever. They've had multiple domestic violence incidents, including a 2023 video of Paul assaulting Mortensen that leaked on March 19th, and got her pulled from the Bachelorette. Draper suggested showing some cast members the fight footage Mortensen shared to counter the narrative that he's lying. Later, after the leak, she posted on social media explaining it happened during season 5 production when tensions with Paul were high and she'd seen those videos firsthand.
