Overview
- Page Six, TMZ and multiple outlets reported Thursday that Taylor Frankie Paul declined separate proposals from Tate Paul and Dakota Mortensen that would have given her roughly 40 percent parenting time.
- One proposed schedule from Tate would have allotted Taylor about 35 percent supervised time with their two older children and required visits to occur at her parents’ home with family members supervising.
- Court controls remain in place while proceedings continue, including prior protective orders, court-ordered testing and exchange rules, and a pending Utah DCFS juvenile petition seeking protective supervision and a guardian ad litem.
- Taylor says she will keep fighting in court and alleges the fathers are coordinating legal moves against her, and media coverage plus leaked footage of a 2023 domestic incident have been cited repeatedly in filings and agency reviews.
- Next steps include further family and juvenile-court hearings to resolve parenting time and safety oversight, which could mean longer supervised visits, expanded discovery, or appointment of a guardian to represent the children’s interests.
