By now you've likely seen the video that has gone viral of Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen's brutal fight from 2023. "TMZ" posted the video yesterday morning, where we can see Taylor throw a chair at Dakota.. with her daughter sitting on the couch not so far away. We can hear the child start to cry, and according to the police report, she did get hit.
Well, ABC also saw the video.. and has decided to pull the plug on Taylor's season of "The Bachelorette." In a statement, a spokesperson for Disney Entertainment said, “In light of the newly released video just surfaced today, we have made the decision to not move forward with the new season of 'The Bachelorette' at this time, and our focus is on supporting the family.”
A "Bachelorette" insider also shared with the outlet that prior to "TMZ" posting the video, no one at ABC had seen it beforehand. Taylor's season of the show was supposed to premiere this Sunday.
