Did we finally get the confirmation we needed about Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen‘s relationship status?
As Secret Lives of Mormon Wives fans know, the couple first sparked breakup rumors shortly after the premiere season dropped in September. Taylor posted about starting a “new chapter” in her life — seemingly without Dakota as her boyfriend! However, that same month, the social media personality clarified to Us Weekly that they were “not fully together, but not fully done.” Well, we say “clarified” — that wasn’t all that clear actually… But later on it looked like she and Dakota rekindled their relationship in November. But don’t get excited! Because now, weeks later, they are seemingly over again!

Taylor first sparked breakup rumors when fans noticed she cropped Dakota out from her Christmas card on Instagram — though you could still see his sneakers in the pic. What made the whole thing awkward? He then posted the same pictures on his account but made sure to include Taylor, their son Ever, and her two children, saying how they “will always have a special place in my heart.” We’re cringing for them! Jeez!
While Taylor excluding Dakota from the Christmas card may seem like confirmation they aren’t together anymore, they never gave a relationship status update to the public, leaving everyone to question what’s going on! Are they or aren’t they a couple? Well, their most recent posts on TikTok make us think they are DEFINITELY NOT an item now!
This week, Taylor shared a video on the platform with her kids in matching Christmas pajamas with the caption:
“Perk is no traveling to any in-laws anymore.”
Because they aren’t in-laws anymore? LOLz! Take a look at the post (below):
@taylorfrankiepaul Never looked at it from this pov cause heck yes my famiky it is #coparenting #momtok
Per TikToker Stephanie Tleiji, when a social media user told Taylor to “stay in YOUR POWER” and to “do life on your TERMS” in the comments of that video, she responded:
“Working on it, time to date myself.”
Umm… “Date myself.” As in, she’s single and focusing on herself moving forward!? Whoa! If you aren’t convinced she has broken up with Dakota again, take a look at this. Taylor then posted a video to TikTok on Wednesday of herself crying while lying on the floor! On Wednesday — aka Christmas. Oh no! She alluded that she’s spending the night all by herself, writing:
“Chaos to pure silence. Wouldn’t wish this pain upon anyone. If you’re there, take a drive, scream, cry, feel the pain, because I promise avoiding it will make it much worse.”
Heartbreaking. She then added in the caption:
“I was told you got through this once, you’ll get through it again. #coparenting #loss #relationships.”

We assume her two older kids were with their dad Tate. But what about baby Ever? When a follower noted that “Dakota’s TikTok brought” them to her account, Taylor replied:
“Just happy he can have his day with him.”
Dakota posted a video of himself on Tuesday getting ready for Christmas by himself on Tuesday, writing in the caption:
“Wrapping presents alone. But I am sober and can be there for my son’s first Christmas.”
The next day, he showed a video of their little one opening his “first Christmas present.” Taylor is nowhere to be seen. Check out the videos (below):
@dakotamortensen Also get the hype with this song. Blessed! #sober #recovery #coparenting
@dakotamortensen He is the only gift I’ll ever need in my life. I love being a dad. #dad #newdad
Neither Dakota nor Taylor have made an official statement that they’re over for good, but these posts and comments are all the confirmation we need! Whether the breakup is for good time will tell. Reactions, Perezcious readers? Let us know in the comments!
