Taylor Frankie Paul will not face criminal prosecution following two separate domestic violence investigations involving her ex-partner, Dakota Mortensen.
The Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office announced Tuesday that prosecutors are declining to file charges against the 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' reality star. After reviewing evidence from two different police departments, officials determined there was insufficient proof to support criminal charges beyond a reasonable doubt.
'Prosecutors signaled it was going to be hard to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Taylor committed any crimes,' according to the announcement.
Despite being on probation for a previous domestic violence incident, prosecutors confirmed they will not pursue probation violations either.
The legal developments come after video surfaced showing Paul's violent 2023 altercation with Mortensen, which resulted in her pleading guilty to aggravated assault. That footage also revealed one of her children was struck during the confrontation.
The investigations have already had significant professional consequences for Paul. Production of 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' was paused, and her scheduled season of 'The Bachelorette' was canceled following the release of the 2023 video.
It remains unclear when filming for 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' will resume now that the criminal threat has been resolved. Representatives for Paul did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
