Taylor Frankie Paul has voluntarily entered a rehabilitation facility for mental health treatment, according to a source with knowledge of the matter. The stay was reportedly taken on the advice of her mental health team.
Details of rehab stay
The facility specializes in providing treatment for mental health, addiction, and trauma. An insider stated that Paul is committed to focusing on herself and her family, noting that she has since left the center and returned home.
Legal conflict with former partner
The news of the 32-year-old's rehab stay follows a period of legal conflict with her former partner, Dakota Mortensen, with whom she shares a two-year-old son. The pair previously filed competing protective orders against one another earlier this year, alleging abusive conduct during their three-year relationship.
Recent police contact and reports
Recently, the Bluffdale Police Department reported that authorities were contacted by Mortensen on June 26 regarding a possible violation of a protective order. While law enforcement confirmed they reached out to Paul following the report, officials stated there are currently no active cases against either party. The information was sent to the Salt Lake County District Attorney for further review.
Paul addressed her recent interaction with police via an Instagram Story, suggesting that the contact was being driven by a single individual she described as obsessive.
History of domestic investigations
The legal and personal tensions between Paul and Mortensen have been documented through various investigations. In February 2026, the Draper City Police Department opened a domestic assault investigation involving allegations made in both directions.
Additionally, the West Jordan Police Department investigated an alleged domestic violence incident from 2024 that was brought to their attention by Mortensen. However, in April 2026, the Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office announced it would not be filing new charges against Paul following reviews of these investigations by multiple attorneys.
