  Speaker 1: This is the Ben and Ashley I Almost Famous podcast
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Hey, welcome to the Tailor Frecky Paul Show. Ha ha
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: ha ha. It's the almost Famous podcast and I am
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: here with Heather today breaking down the newest court moment
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: for Taylor Freakie Paul and her ex Dakota moments.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: We've got an update on mins stuff too.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, wait, what happened there? I was trying to figure
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: that out. So we know that he was denied the
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: restraining order last week, and we weren't sure that yesterday's
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: court appearance would had anything to do with Tate, but
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: it did.
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: No, I don't think yesterday's had to do with Tate,
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: but it seems like there's additional proceedings going on separately
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: pertaining to the custody of those children too, right now,
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: so we can get into all of that.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: All right, So let's let's start with that. Taylor and
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: her ex Tate have not had a lot of issues
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: that have been public as we've known, but last week
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: he tried to get a restraining order from her after
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: he found out that she went to rehab, a voluntary
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: rehab stint that we believe lasted a week or less less.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: So that was confirmed yesterday. It was two.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Days, oh goodness gracious.
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: And it fell over Father's Day and she was like
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: the Father's Day weekend, and she was very intentional with
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: that because she knew that she wouldn't miss visitation with
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: her youngest child because he would be with Dakota. So
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: that was actually explained yesterday during her court hearing with Dakota.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: So because of that call, she was asked now by
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: the courts to do drug testing and alcohol testing. And
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: they're not going to just do something that's like a
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: breathalyzer or anything like that. It's going to be a
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: fifteen panel hair or nail tests as well as a
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: peth test for alcohol. So basically this means that it's
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: going to do research. This test will find out whether
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: or not she's taken any prescription drugs, alcohol, recreational drugs
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: for like the past million months, right.
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: Prescription to be very clear, prescription drugs other than what
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: she is currently being prescribed for her depression and anxiety.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: So this is the thing. She didn't tell Tate that
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: she was going to rehab, so now he is using
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: this as like, I didn't know why you were going
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: to rehab like you didn't alert me, like, and so
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: he's using this and Taylor has been very vocal about
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: this on her socials that she went to seek help
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: and now it's getting used against her. In her hearing
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: yesterday with Dakota, it was brought up that she volunteered
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: went to rehab because she was transitioning into a new
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: medication and she wanted to make sure that she had
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: the right people around her in case that there was
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: some sort of reaction or.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: That's actually would react. It's very because we all we
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: all hear on the commercials if you don't know firsthand
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: that a lot of times, going on certain antidepressants could
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: actually lead you to suicidal suicidal thoughts. H. So she
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: was being pretty responsible and doing that.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I don't understand why it would only be two days,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: but that's I mean, you were saying it could have
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: been the Father's day thing. Maybe she's in and out,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: who the heck.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Knows, Yeah, but either way, so it looks like she's
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: offered to do this hair sample thing in order to,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: you know, help with the visitation. It seems like things
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: are kind of in limbo right now with her other
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: two children. Yeah, because she will have to share these
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: with the results with DC, it says, wishing to review
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: her treatment records, and that she submitted the fifteen panel
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: hair or nail test as well as the Peth test
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: for alcohol. If it's negative, Tate shall reimburse her for.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: What does that mean the test? Okay? Oh? Is the
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: test gonna be pricey?
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: I'm sure it's not cheap to do. Uh, you know
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: something that's not a breathalyzer. She must take her prescriptions
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: with her and have a doctor verified that the levels
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: in her system are consistent with her prescribed dosage. The
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: ruling said, and the results of Taylor's sobriety test will
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: be subject to a strict protective order until such as
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: the results have been issued. Taylor's parent time shall be supervised.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: It is in both parties' best interests that this supervision
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: be professional so that there is an independent third party
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: observing the interactions between mother and child.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: A judge rule.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: So basically, she is going from having what's a supervised
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: visitation status with EVER now.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Well that got increased as of yesterday, so she's having
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: unsupervised visits with Ever supervised.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: But she now her other two kids will be supervised.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: I mean, oh gosh, it's very unfortunate, I think for
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: everybody involved. And we can get into again our speculations
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: about the show quote unquote airing now, well, you.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: And I I feel like when we stepped on today
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: for the first time in a long time, I was like,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: why are we even doing I mean, I know why
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: we're doing this. We have no other Bachelor news to cover, however,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: like she's not a Bachelor Nation member anymore. She just
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: isn't because there's no way this is gonna air.
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: Let me just check Taylor's Instagram while we're on here.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Did we even go through what she posted?
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: Was it sat?
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: No? It was almost too much? Guys, it was too much.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I literally what did I say when I sent it?
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: I said, buckle up, and I sent the photos.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I have another friend who sent me everything that morning too.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: It Listen, Taylor has got She's She's made headlines again
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: this week for changing her status bio on Instagram. It
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: now reads creator of mom Talk, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: Bachelorette Jesus is King. You know, she's gotten some some
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: flak for that, But let me just tell you her
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: most recent Instagram story is a picture of her looking
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: at the camera. It says, today was extremely difficult. Meanwhile,
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: there has been at least twelve plus people throughout this
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: trying to make it harder. Thank you God for revealing
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: them all. I want to be nothing like them. They bully,
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: I defend myself, not the same. Pay attention how this
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: plays out, I trust. And then after that she posted
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: the most needed remod and then it's a passage highlighted
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: from her worship book that we know she follows. Yeah,
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I think we'll get into the Dakota stuff that happened
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: in that because it looks like, you know, he.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Got a little slap on the wrist.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Let's get into that for a second, because it rolls
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: over the judge was like, oh, hey, by the way,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: could you stop talking about each other on social media?
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: So that's one of the slaps on the rest that
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: they got.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: Wait where did they say that?
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: It says and reiterated that neither of them should be
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: talking badly about each other on social media.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: I mean perfect, I mean that. What's crazy is that
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: was part of the initial the initial thing. Yes, that
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: was that he granted last month.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: So so this is crazy too. Dakota is out there
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: taking ever a two year old on a motorcycle. I'm sorry.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Now I watched the footage of this scene because this
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: court appearance was put out on the internet.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: I did not watch the whole thing, but I did
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: watch this clip.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: And Dakota's lawyer said, it's not really a motorcycle, it's
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: an e bike. And the judge goes, it's a motorcycle.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: He's two too. Okay, judge goes, he's two, he's not twelve.
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: And he's like, so we're not going to do that anymore.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: And then the Dakota's laurier was like, well, you can
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: see in the photo that the child has a helmet. Like,
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: we're wondering why this is even being brought up.
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: How do you even strap a child to a e bike?
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: The judge just goes, he's two, he's twelve. So he
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: was like, so we're not doing that anymore. Oh my gosh,
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: I won't even let Jared go on a motorcycle. My dad,
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: my dad, doctor, dad calls them suicycles.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: So yeah, that was one thing, and then there was
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: some back and forth. Obviously, it says that Dakota thinks
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: that he claims that his son's crying is quote unquote
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: annoying to Taylor.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: So this was like in private text messages in the.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Past, where they actually exchanged tech messages directly, as they
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: are in the past two months or so not able
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: to text each other directly.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, says claims.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: Taylor called their son Evers cries for him annoying in
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: a private text message, and we're told it's TMZ is
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: told it's one of several explosive alleged admissions his attorneys
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: are putting before a judge in their custody battle. In
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: the court docs obtained by TMZ, Dakota's legal team filed Emotion,
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: asking a judge to set aside a previous stipulation ahead
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: of the hearing yesterday, attached dozens of exhibits they say
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: contain text conversations between the exes. According to exhibit titles,
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: Dakota alleges Taylor said Ever cries for him. Ever's cries
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: for him were annoying, admitted he didn't deserve the domestic violence.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I'm not laughing.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: I'm just.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: It's wild these things that I'm reading.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: Planned to sabotage Dakota and mocked his safety concerns. Other
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: exhibits are described as showing Taylor asking Dakota to disparage
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: two unidentified people, baiting him during multiple exchanges, admitting she disassociates,
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: provoking him over a medical issue before attacking him, sending
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: dozens of unanswered texts between midnight and four am, sending
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: graphically intimate messages about Dakota's lip tattoo, and cycling from
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: arousal to anger in her texts. In addition to the exhibits,
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: Dakota's legal team submitted declarations from two witnesses in support
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: of the motion. I could guess who one of those is,
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: although they don't know the contents of those declarations. A
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: source close to Taylor's team tells TMZ the other side
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: continues to wage a misinformation campaign against her, twisting facts
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: and taking them out of context. TMZ is told Taylor
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: looks forward to addressing these in the court through the
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: proper channels, and you know, which is what they did.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: And then they got into some he said, she said
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: text messages through Taylor's sister Aspen, which that was weird
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: to me. And we are gonna have to get our
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: legal experts.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Can we talk about the fact that there's a Dakota
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: involved in an aspen.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: It's so funny, But Taylor's sister is very young, like
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: she is on the show. She should definitely not be
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: any sort of mediator go between person in this situation.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: She I mean, there's she should not be.
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: But we're gonna have to get our legal expert back on.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: She's on vacation enjoying life right now, which she should.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: But I need to know how this order of protection
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: is not impacting the sister, like she should not be
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: involved in any of these text messages.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: The text message is old, because obviously all these other
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: things that Taylor that Dakota's team is trying to bring
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: in right now are old. The crying texts and that
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: you didn't deserve domestic violence text and the lip tattoo.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: I don't know the dates of them, but I will
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: say the clips that I watched, it said that her
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: team said that the text messages from Taylor's sister were
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: heavily redacted. That they said like it was like fractions
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: of conversations, and that she had the like lengthier versions
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: to prove that, like what was submitted in court was
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: not actually factual of those text messages. So We'll have
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: to see how this kind of unfolds, because you know,
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: obviously each side is saying something different. But the positive
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: outcome in all of this for Taylor was the visitation
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: elements getting changed.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: She gets a little bit extra time, like in the
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: morning on a Monday, it says.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: So at the hearing, the judge expanded Taylor's parent time
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: to extend her weekends with Ever through Monday morning. It
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: says that the judge also ordered that Ever only be
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: transported in an enclosed vehicle with age appropriate safety measures
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: met with age appropriate safety measures, and he reiterated in
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: an earlier order for neither Dakota or Taylor to make
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: disparaging remarks about the other on social media.
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: Hey there, Amy Robot and TJ Holmes here from the

  Speaker 7: Available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, and wherever you

  Speaker 7: get your podcasts.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: So basically, Dakota's team is still trying to get evidence
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: as to why she should have him less.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: I guess that's his ultimate goal.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, why can't we just like, can we
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: just start fresh? Cause just have a clean slate? Is
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: his goal? Is his goal just to have him like more?
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Because I just is that his goal is just to
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: prevent him from being with the mom as much as
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: he can.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: This hasn't been brought up, but obviously I'm not a
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: legal expert. But I'm wondering if this is a way
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: to gain child support from her, because that hasn't been
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: discussed yet about like what's happening with that?
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: How does that work if you you were never married?
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Because I'm wondering, you got to go through the court system.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: I think, yeah, okay, because I'm not familiar with cases
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: and child support when they were never This is what
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: I say.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: We got to get the legal expert back on because
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: we got to ask about that because I'm I'm confused too,
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: like what is his end goal? Is his end goal
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: in what her you know, perception is of this case
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: and her legal background. Is he trying to gain more
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: custody so then there can be some sort of child
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: support situation that is then made final. I don't know,
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: So we'll have to figure this out. But I now
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: still am standing firmly on we are not going to
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: see that season.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Never never her.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: You cannot air this season with your lead in the
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: midst of the eye of the storm like this, and
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: second of all, expressing that she's mentally needing to make
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: sure she's around experts because she's in a state that
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: she doesn't know what could possibly happen positive or negative.
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: It's now at a place where morally it would look
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: really bad for the show if they were to attempt
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: to put this out and make her go do press
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: and face scrutiny, Like it would be wildly irresponsible of
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: them to do something like that to her. She needs
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: to be focused on this, and she is focused. She
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: is very focused on her children and that aspect of
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: her life. And I think that she is making the
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: right steps, I really do. I just think that adding
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: a television show on top of that is not what
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: she needs right now.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Not at all. Is There's no way And it's unreal
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: because like three weeks ago, we were saying such opposite things.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: We're like, it's good, it could happen. It could happen. Oh,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: I apologize for saying that. Now I feel wrong.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think that we all thought it was
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: was turning in a positive way.
