Taylor Frankie Paul is Back on 'Mormon Wives' (and Trust US, It’s About to Get Wild)

Oh, you thought we were done with the reality show chaos? Think again. Our favorite mess—yes, it’s none other than Taylor Frankie Paul—is making her grand, albeit limited, return to The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives for its fifth season. But before you pop the champagne, hold your applause because it’s not the comeback we all hoped for. According to sources, she’ll only be filming the intro credits over the next two days—cue the underwhelming applause—and that’s your lot. No dramatic confessionals, just a brief cameo on the hot mess express.

Now, the drama is already thick in the air after a colossal blow-up earlier this year between TFP and Dakota Mortensen. Talk about a soap opera that just won’t die—somebody get the popcorn, please! On top of that, she’s been riding the custody battle carousel with Dakota and her ex-husband, Tate Paul, over their three children. Overwhelmed doesn’t even begin to cover it, does it?

But wait, there’s more! While the rest of the Secret Lives crew—think Jessi Draper, Whitney Leavitt, and Jen Affleck—got together to film an excruciatingly cringe-worthy dance break to Big Time Rush (yes, we’re cringing too), TFP chimed in with her classic social media flourish: “Looks like thriving to me, I'll show you surviving.” Oh honey, thriving in front of a ring light isn’t quite the same as thriving in reality, now is it?

As for whether this chaotic ensemble will snag a sixth season, insiders are convinced that keeping TFP in the mix might help the ratings. But let’s be real—it’s just another plot twist in a series where we’re all biting our nails in anticipation of the next scandal. Buckle up, darlings; the drama’s only just begun.
