Production on \u201cThe Secret Lives of Mormon Wives\u201d has hit an unexpected pause \u2026 and it’s all due to a heated blowup between two of the main cast members, TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n

Sources connected to the series tell us production is currently shut down after drama with the show’s star\u00a0Taylor Frankie Paul<\/a>\u00a0and her baby daddy\u00a0Dakota Mortensen<\/a>\u00a0erupted while filming for season 5 … causing cameras to go down for the time being.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear exactly what sparked the fight, but our sources say the situation became intense enough that filming couldn\u2019t continue as planned.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Taylor and Dakota\u2019s relationship has been a major storyline on the hit Hulu reality series — which follows a group of Mormon mom influencers navigating relationships — and things between the former couple ended on rocky terms in the most recent season which aired last week, as Taylor is currently the \u201cBachelorette\u201d for the ABC franchise.<\/p>\n

For now, it\u2019s unclear how long production will remain paused or whether cameras will resume rolling soon \u2026 but we\u2019re told they\u2019re taking the matter seriously and handling with caution.<\/p>\n

We’ve reached out to reps for the show — as well as Taylor and Dakota — for comment \u2026 so far, no word back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u2018Secret Lives of Mormon Wives\u2019 Production Paused After Taylor & Dakota Blowup Published March 15, 2026 9:06 PM…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":526852,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[88],"class_list":{"0":"post-526851","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/526851","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=526851"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/526851\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/526852"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=526851"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=526851"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=526851"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
