Soooo, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives stars Taylor Frankie Paul and Mikayla Matthews don’t seem to be getting along at the moment (huge understatement)—by which I mean they spent the weekend writing public posts about each other.
Things kicked off when Mikayla posted a lengthy statement on Saturday explaining why she hasn’t been publicly supporting Taylor amid her legal battle with ex Dakota Mortensen, saying in part, “It is not my job to enable poor or dangerous behavior from either party, especially when children are involved. That doesn’t mean I don’t love them or want the best for their individual futures. It just means I cannot sit here and pretend it’s OK that years of destructive behavior are now being discussed more than ever online and turned into a ‘pick a side’ game.” She added, “You cannot save someone who is unwilling to participate in their own rescue.”
Taylor then commented that Mikayla has been “waiting” for her downfall and implied that she won’t be filming with her.
But she took things up several notches with a Mother’s Day post on Sunday, writing in part, “I have STILL have ‘friends’ kicking me while I’m already down and calling it ‘setting a boundary’ and then BLAMES ME for being upset and responding. That’s called shaming and attack while I had a moment to breathe and she knew that. Not once have a called myself a ‘victim’ but I’m HUMAN and have breaking points. What a snake friend just did to me in the public eye after everything she just witnessed…the lack of empathy and silence was loud enough.”
Taylor ended the lengthy post with, “Of course I’m spiraling… people calling me out yet I can’t respond? Exactly what I will NOT be tolerating ever again. Thank you GOD for the people you sent to help me through this with my enemies so close.”
Unclear whether Hulu’s cameras are capturing all of this drama, but last we heard Taylor had chosen not to continue filming Mormon Wives. A source told People at the end of April that she “has the option to return” and could make an appearance, so guess we’ll see!
