Timing is everything, and that video taylor frankie paul’s 2023 domestic violence incident dakota mortenson A worse moment could not have come. The disturbing clip of The Secret Lies of Mormon Wives star became public just days before the premiere of Taylor’s season of The Bachelorette, forcing ABC to remove it from its schedule.
While the network struggles to manage the fallout, a big question remains: How did TMZ get the video in the first place? Obviously, jessie bazaaz There are some theories.
Jesse Draper talks on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast
Jessie recently sat down with Alex Cooper on the Call Her Daddy podcast and made a ton of explosive claims. Much of the conversation centered around her estranged husband, Jordan Ngatikoura, whom she says hired escorts and attended sex parties during their marriage.
However, Jessie also had to talk about the big elephant in the room, which is Taylor and her poor Bachelorette season. Jessie said she spoke to Taylor just before the interview and she seemed to be in a “positive” mood.
Jessie said, “The thing about Taylor is that she always tells the truth. She’s known for that.” “I think she’s going to handle it the best way she can. I think she’s working hard to figure it out. She’s not just going to run to TMZ and leak stories.”
However, someone is leaking stories and Jesse suspects it is Dakota. When Alex asked Jessie if she thought she “sold the video” to TMZ, she had a very direct answer.
Jesse replied, “Yes.”
Jesse speculates that Dakota had kept this video for years and may have been keeping it from Taylor. Did she sell it to TMZ just in time to derail The Bachelorette? Perhaps.
He said, “Everyone is speculating about the timing. It could happen. I definitely think it has something to do with it.” “I don’t know if he kept it in his head for so long or not. Maybe they were doing it with each other. I have no idea of the ins and outs. But I think the timing is a little weird.”
Before the video dropped, we learned that Dakota and Taylor were both under investigation for a February domestic violence incident. We’ve since learned that Dakota went to the police in 2024 with a third allegation. They have both been ordered to undergo psychological evaluation, and SLOMW’s future remains uncertain.
On Call Her Daddy, Alex asks Jesse the age-old question: Will Momtok survive this?
