11:14 AM PT — In her TRO filing, Taylor Frankie Paul is finally going deep into the gritty details about her side of the domestic violence drama between her and her ex Dakota Mortensen. She says Dakota displayed signs of crazy jealousy — stalking her, assaulting her, and becoming “increasingly possessive” ahead of her debut on “The Bachelorette.” According to TFP, Dakota got her initials tattooed on the inside of his lip — something she says she found out about leading up to their February altercation.
And while Dakota is accusing TFP of assaulting him in that incident, she says he actually assaulted her in that confrontation in February. Taylor accuses Dakota of slamming her head against the dashboard of his car while in Taylor’s driveway.
Even wilder … Taylor says he asked her for sex right after. According to Taylor, after she denied his advances, Dakota called the police on her.
Taylor Frankie Paul is going on the offensive … the reality star has just filed a temporary restraining order against her ex Dakota Mortensen, TMZ has learned.
The filing, obtained by TMZ, comes before the estranged couple’s court hearing today concerning a protective order that was granted to Dakota against Taylor.
In today’s proceedings, Dakota is expected to ask the court to extend his protective order against Taylor into a long-term one, as authorities investigate accusations of domestic violence, which Dakota brought against Taylor.
Taylor has been accused of attacking Dakota on three separate occasions — once in 2023, another time in 2024, and the last one is alleged to have happened in February of this year. The 2023 incident was captured on video and resulted in TFP pleading guilty to aggravated assault.

Amid the fallout — “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” paused filming and her season of “The Bachelorette” was canceled — TFP has said there’s more to the story than what’s been made available.
This development may signal that she’s closer to revealing her side of things.
