ABC just canceled the next season of the Bachelorette days before his premiere. The move came after an old video resurfaced, showing Lee Taylor Frankie Paul in a domestic incident. Paul, a top mom-talk influencer, was set to star in the show. The network bosses picked her to boost ratings with her huge online following. But the footage from 2023 captured her throwing metal bar stools at her ex during a fight, with their young daughter close by. She later pleaded guilty to aggravated assault. Backlash spread fast online and hit her other projects hard. NBC dropped her from the Tonight Show, production halted on her Hulu series, and advertisers started pulling support over the bad optics. That pressure from brands tipped the scales for ABC, since they hold the purse strings for these big productions. Now contestants from the scrap season are eyeing lawsuits against the network and producers.
