During Season 1, Taylor was told that Dakota might have cheated. Meanwhile, in September 2024, the #MomTok influencer shared that the couple was taking a break. Well, the break became a permanent one.
Recently, Taylor opened up about her split with Dakota. “There was some betrayal. We’re just trying to both heal individually and get to a better spot, because I think together, obviously we couldn’t get there,” Taylor told E! News. “Right now, we’re doing the best we can for our baby, and what happens in the future, I’m not sure.” She added, “Right now, I’m focusing on only me.”
Watching Season 2 of the show with their relationship breakdown will be “really triggering” for the mom of three. “I am in a much better place now,” Taylor stated. “Time heals wounds, honestly. When they say that quote, it is so true.”
As for co-parenting, it is an emotional subject for Taylor. “Co-parenting is great, but it’s also the worst. For me, experiencing that already with my other two, this one has been excruciating and been really hard,” she explained. “To make that decision for myself, because I knew the pain that was coming with it, made it a lot harder to let go of us being together.”
Meanwhile, Taylor isn’t sure what her future looks like with Dakota. “I don’t know the answer, because I didn’t want this to be the case … for me. I think he has that hope still to this day,” Taylor stated. “So, I think if any or both of us are holding on to even one percent chance, then I don’t want to say ‘never say never.'”
For now, dating is off the table. Taylor quipped, “Couldn’t imagine anything worse. No, I’m kidding obviously. Just not right now.”
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives drops May 15 on Hulu.
