Production was temporarily halted in March after a video surfaced showing Paul throwing a chair at her then-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen in the presence of a child, prompting a domestic abuse investigation by the Draper City Police Department in Utah.

Subsequently, ABC also pulled Paul’s season of *The Bachelorette* three days before it was set to premiere on March 22.

“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 in a statement to ** at the time.

Cameras picked back up for *Mormon Wives *in late April, but without Paul and Mortensen, who are currently locked in a bitter custody battle over their 2-year-old son Ever.

The day before Paul reportedly returned to production, her costars Whitney Leavitt, Jessi Draper, Jen Affleck, and Layla Taylor were seemingly filming together. The group made a TikTok video dancing to the theme song of Nickelodeon’s *Big Time Rush* with the caption “we’re surviving….”

Leavitt also posted the clip on Instagram, where it caught Paul’s attention. “Looks like thriving to me, I’ll show you surviving,” she commented. The quip garnered over 16,000 likes and hundreds of replies, many of which seemed excited by the possibility of Paul back on *Mormon Wives*.

Jeff Jenkins, one of the Hulu show’s executive producers, previously admitted he was hopeful for her return.

“I’ve talked to Taylor, and she wants to come back, and I want her to come back,” Jenkins told *Variety*. “So I’m really hopeful that that’s going to happen... I’m very hopeful that she’ll be back very soon, and I’m hopeful we can do all sorts of other projects with her as well.”
