"In light of the newly released video just surfaced today, we have made the decision to not move forward with the new season of 'The Bachelorette' at this time, and our focus is on supporting the family."
"The only thing you know how to do is hurt me, while repeatedly pleading with Paul and reminding her that her daughter was watching."
"A child can be heard sobbing, screaming and shouting 'mommy!' Paul's daughter would have been about 5 at the time."
"Paul had already become a reality star through 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,' whose production is paused."
ABC has canceled the upcoming season of 'The Bachelorette' featuring Taylor Frankie Paul, just three days before its premiere. The decision follows the release of a 2023 video showing Paul engaging in violent behavior towards her former partner, Dakota Mortensen, while her young daughter was present. This unprecedented cancellation comes amid an ongoing domestic violence investigation involving Paul. A representative for Paul claims she has been a victim of abuse for years, while the video aligns with her previous arrest for aggravated assault and domestic violence.
