Taylor Frankie Paul, star of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives," got real with her fans during a candid Instagram Q&A session on Saturday.
Addressing everything from her personal struggles to life in the spotlight, Taylor offered honest and heartfelt answers to burning fan questions. Her openness gave followers an intimate glimpse into her life, deepening her connection with her audience.
Taylor Frankie Paul Had 'Some Time' To Answer Fan Questions
With all the recent drama plaguing Paul, she's proving she's a trooper and here for the plot by opening up a fan Q&A on Instagram on Saturday.
The IG Story post that opened the forum of questions - "Got some time. Ask away."
Stories that followed included some of the questions asked and the answers. She shared nearly 30 questions and answers that ranged from revealing her thoughts about being recognized, things she wants fans to know about her, and more.
Taylor Frankie Paul Answered Fan Questions In IG Stories
Fans had random questions for Paul that ranged from easy to answer to one that she couldn't answer.
"Do you want another child?" one fan asked. Paul responded, "Yes, but not another baby daddy so we'll see what God has planned for me."
One fan just wanted to know how she's "genuinely" doing.
"Thank you for asking. Doing better than I was, and I'll take that," Paul responded.
Another fan wanted to know how long Paul waited after miscarrying before having her son Ever.
"I had an ectopic pregnancy 2022, chemical pregnancy January 2023, pregnant July 2023," she responded.
Regrets, Filming Season 2, And Being Famous Entered The Chat
One fan wanted to know what advice Paul would give to herself a year ago. She responded, "Always listen to your intuition, Taylor."
"What is one thing you regret in your past?" another fan asked. "Regret nothing. It got me exactly here and who I am today. Do I wish I had done things differently absolutely. I've been stuck for so long because I can't let things go and I don't know how to forgive myself for certain things...All being worked on in therapy," she replied.
One fan wanted to know if filming is tougher for season 2 than it was for the first season of the hit Hulu show, "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives."
"Easier," Paul said. "I'm not pregnant and have energy to stand my ground when needed."
The One Question She Didn't Fully Answer
While Paul answered many of the questions fans asked, there was one that she didn't fully answer.
"Relationship update?" one fan asked to which Paul replied, "Can't comment on this."
It's been a roller coaster trying to keep up with the relationship status of Paul and her baby daddy and ex, or possibly current boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. The answer she shared didn't help the confusion many feel about the relationship, but maybe more of that will be addressed in the second season of the show, which will be released in spring 2025.
When asked if she thought she might be famous one day, Paul responded, "Yes, everything I manifested. Good and bad. What you focus on is what you WILL get for better or worse."
Another question asked, that might be on the minds of many fans, is about her relationship with MomTok. Paul answered a simple, "Mostly good." Another fan asked if she will continue to do future seasons of the show if that becomes a reality and Paul replied, "As long as they have me I'll continue. I love the entire village it takes to make this all come together."
Taylor Frankie Paul Shared More In A 'Get Ready With Me' Video On TikTok
Around the same timeframe, Paul shared a "Get Ready with Me" video on TikTok to learn a little bit of her current "life update."
She started off by explaining that she's not able to share everything and "can only give you guys so much."
"I will just start off by the way I always start off, is pure chaos," she said as she did her makeup. "I can't wait for the day I can truly say it is peaceful."
She shared that she's now doing all her own makeup for filming and photo shoots.
"I like the way that I do my makeup best," she continued. "Obviously, we are in the process of filming still. Still have my social media day-to-day job that I have to keep up on, and then I also have three children I'm raising. There's been some traveling for work lately, and when I'm off, I get all of my children pretty much all to myself, and that in itself is a whole other job on top of it all."
Paul said she's running on "pure adrenaline," and she's still going to therapy. She then revealed there's one person who "truly gets" to her, hates and offends her. (Spoiler alert - it's herself.)
Her video quickly went viral and currently has more than 1 million views and hundreds of comments.
Season 1 of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" can be streamed on Hulu. Season 2 is currently filming and will be released in spring 2025.
