A new video released Thursday shows Taylor Frankie Paul attacking her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen, in front of her daughter three years ago.

A new video released Thursday shows Taylor Frankie Paul attacking her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen, in front of her daughter three years ago.

Shortly after the video was published, a Disney spokesperson confirmed that the network had pulled Taylor’s season of “The Bachelorette,” which was set to premiere Sunday.

“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 Disney Entertainment Television spokesperson said.

The video, published by TMZ, appears to be recorded by Mortensen and shows Paul pushing and kicking Mortensen as he repeatedly asks her to stop, saying, “let me go.” The recording, which does not capture what led up to the moment in which the video began, reportedly portrays an incident in which Paul was arrested in 2023, according to TMZ.

On Thursday, Mortensen through his attorney filed for a protective order against Paul, but the filing was sent back because it was incomplete and an amended petition was requested, Salt Lake County District Court records show.
