2:31
Speaker 1: and if it's been on for like twenty four hours,
2:33
Speaker 1: someone all right past you know. Yeah, And I think
2:36
Speaker 1: that a lot of my friends will be you know,
2:39
Speaker 1: it's gonna take a little bit for them to get there.
2:42
Speaker 1: But like I just don't like my episode and it's okay,
2:45
Speaker 1: Well could get past it. But good things are happening, Ash,
2:48
Speaker 1: we'll talk about it maybe a little bit. It's all
2:50
Speaker 1: good because Generous Coffee. I mean, that's what's really important,
2:54
Speaker 1: is that you're providing better lives for those who work
2:58
Speaker 1: at the Generous.
3:01
Speaker 4: Yeah.
3:02
Speaker 3: I mean I just got a letter, Ashulely, from an
3:05
Speaker 3: organization called Furnishing Hope, and a young lady is getting
3:09
Speaker 3: furniture from a donation Generous was able to be made
3:14
Speaker 3: at her home. Who you know, somebody that was without
3:18
Speaker 3: a home and having a rough go at it. And
3:20
Speaker 3: she's able to get some furnishings for her home. And
3:24
Speaker 3: so yeah, good things are happening. It all works out
3:27
Speaker 3: in the end. Actually, just keep trucking. Hey, there are
3:30
Speaker 3: some things in life that are harder to forget and
3:33
Speaker 3: move on from, and today we're here to talk about
3:36
Speaker 3: one of those things. Obviously, we spent months every Friday
3:40
Speaker 3: talking about Taylor Frankie Paul and her lead up to
3:44
Speaker 3: being the Bachelorette. We did that, Ashley, because we knew
3:47
Speaker 3: there was a lot of commentary on her being the Bachelorette, Right,
3:52
Speaker 3: is she ready? Is this a good thing? What do
3:56
Speaker 3: we know about Taylor Frankie Paul outside of the headlines
3:59
Speaker 3: and the history. And I thought did and thanks to
4:06
Speaker 3: the producers, a really good job at kind of getting
4:09
Speaker 3: to know where Taylor was at in her life leading
4:12
Speaker 3: up to the Bachelorette. And I made the statement and
4:14
Speaker 3: I still stand by it. Weeks leading up to the Bachelor,
4:18
Speaker 3: I said, I'm ready to have her be our bachelorette.
4:20
Speaker 3: I'm ready to watch this. I want her to find love.
4:23
Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to be clean cut. I
4:26
Speaker 3: think it's going to be chaotic. But I was excited
4:30
Speaker 3: for the season ahead of us. And then obviously the
4:33
Speaker 3: news broke that there was another incident that happened recently.
4:39
Speaker 3: You've all been able to go back and listen to
4:41
Speaker 3: those episodes as we kind of led up to then
4:44
Speaker 3: the postponement, I'll call it the pause of this Bachelorette season.
4:49
Speaker 3: There was a video released from twenty twenty three. That's
4:52
Speaker 3: not good. I don't know one person, even if they're
4:56
Speaker 3: like really much team TFP, who said that is a
5:00
Speaker 3: good video. No, everything was like that's a bad video.
5:03
Speaker 3: But they most of Taylor Frankie Paul fans were saying
5:08
Speaker 3: not a good video. But there was another person involved
5:11
Speaker 3: in this, and they're the ones trying to make themselves
5:13
Speaker 3: look like the hero, and that was Dakota. Now the
5:15
Speaker 3: Dakota fans are saying Taylor should not be involved in
5:19
Speaker 3: anything publicly, and they're supporting him as he filed a
5:25
Speaker 3: protective order temporary protective order against Taylor Frankie Paul. He
5:31
Speaker 3: wanted custody of the kid, and that's kind of that.
5:36
Speaker 3: All happened like twenty four hours after the postponement of
5:39
Speaker 3: the Bachelorette. Yeah, which leads us up to today. That
5:46
Speaker 3: order was granted. He's had custody of the child. We
5:51
Speaker 3: haven't heard much about it from either side, but today
5:55
Speaker 3: they had their court hearing and we committed to cover it.
6:00
Speaker 3: Not being legal experts here, so there's a lot of
6:03
Speaker 3: things that we're just gonna read honestly.
6:06
Speaker 1: Then I was just gonna say it I was gonna
6:08
Speaker 1: be like apology for the reading, but like there's not
6:11
Speaker 1: much of a way out of.
6:12
Speaker 3: That, so let's kick it off with this headline to
6:26
Speaker 3: give people some clearance and some guidance. Taylor Frankie Paul
6:30
Speaker 3: files a temporary protective order against ex Dakota Mortenson.
6:37
Speaker 1: So, yes, multiple things happened today. They were supposed to
6:40
Speaker 1: meet in court for the first time, but an hour
6:42
Speaker 1: before their meeting, she filed a temporary protective order against Dakota,
6:50
Speaker 1: revealing new details in this filing about the alleged February
6:55
Speaker 1: domestic violence incident. Again, this was just before a court hearing.
7:01
Speaker 1: So what happens is there's a lot of back and
7:04
Speaker 1: forth between a lot of comments from Taylor's lawyer.
7:08
Speaker 3: Just to be clear, they were supposed to meet virtually today.
7:11
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you, Ben. So in this filing today from
7:15
Speaker 1: her lawyer, let's just call it his name is Eric,
7:18
Speaker 1: Eric Swinyard. So Eric, he said that there's a pattern
7:23
Speaker 1: of abusive conduct and coercive control coming from him, and
7:28
Speaker 1: then he detailed four alleged incidents during their relationship. He
7:35
Speaker 1: said that at Taylor's at two today's hearing, no charges
7:39
Speaker 1: are expected to be filed against either Taylor or Dakota
7:42
Speaker 1: in relation to the February incident. Dakota, this is a quote,
7:48
Speaker 1: is excellent at escalating and aggravating Taylor when she reacts.
7:52
Speaker 1: It's one hundred percent at Dakota. Dakota pushes buttons, He's
7:56
Speaker 1: excellent at that. And as long as these people stay apart,
8:00
Speaker 1: there's no risk to the child. During one alleged incident
8:04
Speaker 1: that happened during the early hours of February twenty third,
8:09
Speaker 1: Eric lawyer said that his client and Dakota got into
8:13
Speaker 1: an argument while in his truck while the other three
8:16
Speaker 1: kids were sleeping inside the house. The lawyer said that
8:20
Speaker 1: Dakota allegedly drove away with Taylor against her wishes, before
8:24
Speaker 1: the two of them got into an altercation that included
8:28
Speaker 1: Dakota grabbing her head and slamming it into the dashboard
8:32
Speaker 1: and then hitting her knee and elbow with his fists.
8:36
Speaker 1: So now we're, of course we're getting these are details
8:39
Speaker 1: that we've never heard of about the alleged February twenty
8:42
Speaker 1: third incident. He the lawyer says, and this was not
8:48
Speaker 1: documented in the police report. That these details match what
8:55
Speaker 1: Taylor filed in this protective order, and he said that
8:59
Speaker 1: in or Taylor's legal team has provided the court with
9:02
Speaker 1: photos of the alleged injuries and text messages that followed
9:08
Speaker 1: the incident. He also notes that Taylor lashed out during
9:12
Speaker 1: the altercation, throwing a drink at Dakota, and that she
9:16
Speaker 1: did assault him, but the lawyer notes that it was
9:20
Speaker 1: Taylor who demanded separation and demanded that he leave her.
9:26
Speaker 1: Anger is this is a quote is very clearly unambiguously
9:31
Speaker 1: directed at Dakota. It has nothing to do with their children.
9:36
Speaker 1: Her children. The Tuesday protective order filed by Taylor, the
9:39
Speaker 1: one today notes that in February, this is very interesting.
9:44
Speaker 1: I need to know your interpretation of this. Dakota tattooed
9:48
Speaker 1: his initials of Taylor inside of his lip and sent
9:51
Speaker 1: her a picture because their relationship had concluded. The photos
9:55
Speaker 1: of this tattoo are very traumatic. This like sounds like
9:58
Speaker 1: something out of fear Right, the movie Fere with Mark Wahlberg.
10:02
Speaker 3: I don't know if I've seen that movie, so I
10:03
Speaker 3: don't know, Mark.
10:04
Speaker 1: God, you must it just like seems like she tattooed
10:08
Speaker 1: her initials on his on his lip. People do this
10:12
Speaker 1: when they like kind of want to hide it, and
10:14
Speaker 1: it also disappears after like a certain number of years.
10:16
Speaker 1: The tattoo doesn't stay, but it kind of is like
10:20
Speaker 1: you're on me like a tattoo, like like a sort
10:24
Speaker 1: of like an imprinting situation.
10:26
Speaker 3: If I am to hear this, it feels manipulative. Yeah,
10:32
Speaker 3: you know, am I wrong? Do you agree with that? Yeah? Hey,
10:35
Speaker 3: the relationships claiming territory? Yeah, yeah, honestly, I don't know
10:40
Speaker 3: you say claiming territory. I guess I am a little
10:43
Speaker 3: bit naive to most like to this because if I
10:47
Speaker 3: had that happen to me, it would be more of
10:49
Speaker 3: like a that's weird, we broke up kind of thing.
10:53
Speaker 1: But I well, I'm probably looking a little bit deeper
10:55
Speaker 1: into it because it says from the lawyer that this
10:59
Speaker 1: was very traumatic to her.
11:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, it makes I mean, it makes sense to me.
11:05
Speaker 3: That just feels weird. If it's like the if they're
11:07
Speaker 3: over broken up and that's a response, it feels controlling. Yeah,
11:16
Speaker 3: it does feel little controlling, like yeah, I'm trying to
11:20
Speaker 3: keep you back engage or trying to get you to
11:22
Speaker 3: send that one more text. I mean, I don't know,
11:25
Speaker 3: I can't relate like, I don't have any background experience
11:30
Speaker 3: in this. I'm not an expert in any of this.
11:33
Speaker 3: It seems very unhealthy. I guess it would be like
11:37
Speaker 3: my very uneducated like layman's opinion would be that feels weird.
11:45
Speaker 3: And then that's the vocabulary I could put around it
11:47
Speaker 3: if for me.
11:49
Speaker 5: So what was established today was that she gets eight
11:56
Speaker 5: hours with their son from now until a April thirtieth,
12:01
Speaker 5: So it's not very long.
12:02
Speaker 1: So it's like three weeks this will be in place,
12:05
Speaker 1: and she can do it in like chunks of two
12:08
Speaker 1: or three hours multiple times a week until it adds
12:11
Speaker 1: up to eight. And she hasn't seen ever their shared
12:15
Speaker 1: child since March twentieth, so it's been a couple weeks
12:20
Speaker 1: of her not being able to see him at all.
12:23
Speaker 3: It's that supervised time too, where somebody sits there.
12:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's saying in the end, Commissioner Russell ordered
12:31
Speaker 1: that the supervised parental visits for Taylor before they meet
12:35
Speaker 1: again in Core April thirtieth.
12:37
Speaker 5: Is is yeah, so that la la la la la
12:42
Speaker 5: legal speak, but yeah, it needs to be supervised parental visits.
12:47
Speaker 1: And then there's also notes that like the two of
12:52
Speaker 1: them when they're just not around each other. It's like
12:58
Speaker 1: everything's fine. So that's kind of one of the reasons
13:01
Speaker 1: that she filed the order of protection against him today
13:05
Speaker 1: because I guess like it's just double duty, like we
13:08
Speaker 1: will not be in the same place together, because when
13:11
Speaker 1: we're when we're anywhere close to each other, it's absolutely tragic.
13:16
Speaker 3: Okay, all this is is there's a lot of obviously
13:20
Speaker 3: big things to come out of this. He Taylor Frankie
13:23
Speaker 3: Paul is accusing the code of Mortincent of slamming her
13:26
Speaker 3: head into the dashboard of his truck. And that's that's
13:29
Speaker 3: a big deal and one that obviously, in the midst
13:33
Speaker 3: of all of this could be almost overlooked. But it's
13:36
Speaker 3: it's it's a major, a major detail of evidence that
13:45
Speaker 3: makes a lot of things now from this h you know,
13:48
Speaker 3: February encounter that recently happened.
13:52
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to read this to really paint
13:56
Speaker 1: the picture.
13:57
Speaker 3: I want Dakota and Taylor Frankie Paul to figure this out.
14:01
Speaker 3: If they need court assistance, they need court assistants, right,
14:04
Speaker 3: I'm not going to throw stones. I don't know their relationship.
14:07
Speaker 3: I don't know any of them personally. I'm literally reading
14:11
Speaker 3: and understanding as we go here. Obviously, this is an
14:14
Speaker 3: unhealthy relationship, and I think Taylor has said multiple times
14:19
Speaker 3: that this is a toxic relationship that she wants to
14:23
Speaker 3: separate herself from. The reason that it's hard to separate
14:26
Speaker 3: from is I think the point here that we and
14:30
Speaker 3: fans need to focus on is there is a child
14:33
Speaker 3: involved that is getting now in the midst of this,
14:37
Speaker 3: they this child is going to be able to see
14:40
Speaker 3: their mother eight hours in the next, you know, twenty
14:44
Speaker 3: three days supervised, and now both the dad and the
14:47
Speaker 3: mom are battling at court. I know friends who have
14:51
Speaker 3: gone through divorces, you know, who have families have gotten
14:55
Speaker 3: ugly divorces. Those are brutal enough on a child, like
14:59
Speaker 3: brutal last a long time, let alone. Then the couple,
15:05
Speaker 3: you know, having this thing happen kind of even on
15:08
Speaker 3: top of it, where they can't even be around each other,
15:11
Speaker 3: and there's court filings and there's communication being told to
15:15
Speaker 3: the child of hey, today you can see your mom
15:16
Speaker 3: for two hours, but next month you're gonna be able
15:18
Speaker 3: to see her for who knows how many And hey,
15:21
Speaker 3: now you don't get to see your dad. Now you
15:22
Speaker 3: get to see your dad, Like goodness, gracious, guys. I know,
15:27
Speaker 3: I don't know if Taylor's mom still listens to our
15:30
Speaker 3: show or if Taylor still listens to our show, but
15:33
Speaker 3: can we figure this out? Like, is there a way
15:37
Speaker 3: to figure this out? Because there is a kid involved,
15:40
Speaker 3: and it sucks that you two can't be around each other.
15:44
Speaker 1: I don't even know how they're going to coparent. When
15:46
Speaker 1: I was reading this, I was like, they can't ever
15:48
Speaker 1: co parent. This kid's gonna have two separate, completely super
15:52
Speaker 1: separate lives. It's so sad, it's so sucky. I can't
15:57
Speaker 1: imagine like your parents not being in communication while being
16:02
Speaker 1: your parents, do you know what I mean?
16:03
Speaker 3: There is this element where in life, you know, of
16:07
Speaker 3: the stories where like i'll call it, miraculous things happen
16:11
Speaker 3: and there is like some sort of redemption. So I
16:15
Speaker 3: want to still believe that that's possible here. I you know,
16:18
Speaker 3: it feels probably really heavy, and it feels heavy to
16:22
Speaker 3: us even just reading this, even though we're so separated
16:24
Speaker 3: from the incident. But I would want to believe that
16:27
Speaker 3: there is an opportunity for the miraculous, for something to
16:33
Speaker 3: happen where they both you know, release, they don't have
16:38
Speaker 3: to be around each other. I don't. I don't think
16:39
Speaker 3: that is healthy. I think we've seen that. But where
16:43
Speaker 3: there could be some type of compromise that is best
16:46
Speaker 3: for the child. That feels hard and probably is oversimplifying.
16:50
Speaker 1: Things, Yeah, but it's very helpful.
16:52
Speaker 3: But I hope that's still a path forward.
16:54
Speaker 1: M okay. So you know how I mentioned that there
16:58
Speaker 1: were four separate instances in which she was allegedly the
17:03
Speaker 1: subject to domestic abuse by him. So one of those is,
17:18
Speaker 1: of course what we were talking about the early morning of
17:21
Speaker 1: February twenty third this year. There's more detail about this
17:25
Speaker 1: in this other article. So she claimed that he came
17:29
Speaker 1: over to her home, where the three kids were sleeping
17:31
Speaker 1: at the time, demanded to speak with her, and then
17:36
Speaker 1: the pair went outside to speak to avoid waking up
17:38
Speaker 1: the kids, and the two entered his car, where she
17:42
Speaker 1: claimed that he drove away from the home. Could you
17:44
Speaker 1: imagine like just Winnie being in the house and then
17:47
Speaker 1: like you get driven away from the home.
17:51
Speaker 3: Panic, panic, Yeah?
17:52
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah. So then the two of them argued and
17:58
Speaker 1: Dakota assault. You know, this is the dashboard moment. And
18:02
Speaker 1: then she said that the pain was immediate and intense,
18:06
Speaker 1: likening it to what she would imagine it would feel
18:09
Speaker 1: to be punched. And then listen to this photos filed
18:14
Speaker 1: by Taylor, so the bruising that developed in the immediate
18:18
Speaker 1: aftermath of the alleged assault. And then also claims that
18:22
Speaker 1: Mortinton requested sex following their alleged February altercation. And then
18:30
Speaker 1: she's also accusing him of allegedly stalking her in February
18:34
Speaker 1: a little bit earlier, February fourteenth, and this is the
18:38
Speaker 1: moment where she showed where he showed the initial tattooed
18:41
Speaker 1: onside inside of her lip on Valentine's Day time.
18:45
Speaker 3: Out just for my mind and I could be crazy?
18:49
Speaker 3: Is this before or after the filming of The Bachelorette?
18:52
Speaker 1: This is after the filming of The Bachelorette. This is
18:55
Speaker 1: February fourteenth, twenty twenty six, a couple weeks before the
19:00
Speaker 1: actual physical altercation. It says, my initials are now permanently
19:05
Speaker 1: tattooed on the body of a man who has been
19:07
Speaker 1: abusive toward me and possessive of me. Yeah, so that's
19:10
Speaker 1: how she felt about seeing the tattoo. Then also it
19:14
Speaker 1: was made note that on February twenty second, the day
19:18
Speaker 1: before they argue like the physical fight that ever, their
19:23
Speaker 1: child is complaining about having complaining about not being able
19:26
Speaker 1: to sleep when he was with his dad at that house.
19:30
Speaker 1: After confronting Paul about her decision to break off the relationship,
19:37
Speaker 1: Taylor made multiple requests to Dakota that he leave her home,
19:43
Speaker 1: and that he continued to reject her repeated demands that
19:47
Speaker 1: he leave her home. Oh okay, So those are the
19:52
Speaker 1: details that we have for you guys. I mean, they're
19:54
Speaker 1: all so so awful.
19:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and so so what Taylor Frankie Paul
20:02
Speaker 3: is saying is that allegedly Dakota has been possessive of her,
20:08
Speaker 3: he has been physically harmful to her, that Dakota allegedly
20:14
Speaker 3: will not be leaving her house when she asks him to,
20:21
Speaker 3: and as a result, Taylor Frankie Paul is now asking
20:26
Speaker 3: for temporary protective order against Dakota Mortensen.
20:32
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that already? I mean, this is legal. This is
20:36
Speaker 1: a question probably for a lawyer. But since he has
20:39
Speaker 1: a protective order against her, wouldn't that mean they can't
20:42
Speaker 1: go near each other? Why have two I feel like
20:45
Speaker 1: there is a reason and I just don't know it's
20:48
Speaker 1: for the paper trail is what their evidence has been.
20:50
Speaker 3: So when they actually go to court to figure this
20:54
Speaker 3: out and figure out what is going to be put
20:57
Speaker 3: in permanently, then both parties now have evidence on display
21:06
Speaker 3: and they have, you know, the pay per trail of hey,
21:10
Speaker 3: you've done this, and the other person saying you've done this,
21:13
Speaker 3: and let's figure out now what happens. I mean, goodness, gracious.
21:18
Speaker 1: We are not really surprised by this news. I felt
21:22
Speaker 1: like the abuse may have been a mutual thing physical.
21:28
Speaker 1: We weren't sure, but I don't think that this is
21:30
Speaker 1: surprising to hear all alleged. By the way, all alleged, well, I.
21:35
Speaker 3: Mean, I guess to close it up here, the two
21:39
Speaker 3: of them have known for a long time that they
21:43
Speaker 3: are not right for each other, that they're not good
21:46
Speaker 3: for each other. But yet there is this thing that
21:50
Speaker 3: keeps bringing them back together. And every time it does,
21:54
Speaker 3: it does feel like some incidents, incident happens, there is
22:01
Speaker 3: a child involved, and so as we said before, the
22:07
Speaker 3: hope is that this is like rock bottom, you know,
22:10
Speaker 3: where it feels like there's no place to turn. Everything's
22:15
Speaker 3: out on the table, they're both telling each other, hey,
22:18
Speaker 3: you've been bad to me, and another person saying, but
22:21
Speaker 3: you've been bad to me, And maybe there'll be a
22:22
Speaker 3: realization that, hey, we're just not right to be in
22:24
Speaker 3: the same room with each other. There's something about us
22:28
Speaker 3: together that's not good. But for the sake of this child,
22:33
Speaker 3: let's like figure this out, because us fighting and us
22:40
Speaker 3: revealing these things is not going to help ever, So
22:45
Speaker 3: can we figure this out in whatever way's best? Because
22:49
Speaker 3: if this this is just brutal, ashlely, I mean.
22:52
Speaker 1: This is I'm just trying to rack my mind about
22:55
Speaker 1: what could be best for this child. Of course it's
22:57
Speaker 1: the two don't getting along, but I mean to getting
23:00
Speaker 1: to place of peace. We do hope that this is
23:02
Speaker 1: our rock bottom. I can't imagine that it gets any
23:04
Speaker 1: worse than this, but pray to God that it wouldn't.
23:09
Speaker 1: But yeah, so I don't know. I mean, this kid,
23:12
Speaker 1: this poor kid, is going to have to have all
23:14
Speaker 1: this out in the public.
23:15
Speaker 3: We know that Taylor freaky Paul's mom is actively involved
23:18
Speaker 3: in her life. Do we know anything about Dakota's family?
23:21
Speaker 1: No, apparently not that great, right right, Heather?
23:25
Speaker 4: I don't know about his relationship. But I know that
23:28
Speaker 4: they live in Idaho, and he does. He has gone
23:31
Speaker 4: to visit them and taken his son there since all
23:34
Speaker 4: of this kind of news broke initially.
23:36
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean obviously, like you, I mean, in situations
23:40
Speaker 3: like this, you think of the grandparents next.
23:42
Speaker 1: I now, typically I'm just like thinking about when he
23:45
Speaker 1: gets older and like the things that will be told
23:48
Speaker 1: when he's with one parent that that your dad this,
23:51
Speaker 1: your dad that, and your mom this, and your mom that,
23:53
Speaker 1: And it's like, I hate that he's going to be
23:55
Speaker 1: fed this stuff.
23:56
Speaker 3: Well that's my point is I hope at some point
23:58
Speaker 3: they can, you know, come together and say, hey, we
24:03
Speaker 3: aren't good for each other, but we don't need to
24:06
Speaker 3: pass this on. The chains can break with us. Yeah,
24:09
Speaker 3: but right now it feels like we're in the midst
24:11
Speaker 3: of it. We'll continue to cover any new story, any
24:14
Speaker 3: new thing that comes out along the way. It's not
24:19
Speaker 3: a fun breakdown. But she was our bachelorette for an
24:25
Speaker 3: announcement I don't know, I mean for the first episode
24:27
Speaker 3: that we got to see. But that's the recent findings
24:30
Speaker 3: from today's did the Heather do you know? Did they
24:34
Speaker 3: actually meet virtually then or once this was filed. Yeah,
24:38
Speaker 3: canceled the court.
24:39
Speaker 4: No, no, no, because remember the hearing was her getting
24:42
Speaker 4: the supervised visits. That was the meeting today, the virtual
24:46
Speaker 4: meeting between them.
24:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was her that she was going to get
24:49
Speaker 1: the eight hours now yeah, oh that's eight hours.
24:51
Speaker 2: Yes.
24:52
Speaker 4: So then the next one is April thirtieth. So obviously
24:55
Speaker 4: when April thirtieth comes, we will cover whatever happens at
24:58
Speaker 4: that court hearing.
25:00
Speaker 3: Can we get a lawyer on for that, Yeah.
25:02
Speaker 1: We definitely need a lawyer on here. Let's yeah, let's
