Just when you thought you’d seen it all, here comes TMZ with more body cam footage from Taylor Frankie Paul’s arrest. The former Bachelorette and Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star was arrested for domestic violence back in 2023, and we’ve had the displeasure of seeing a ton of footage leading up to the arrest.
The latest clips show just how chaotic Taylor appeared to be before the cops put her in handcuffs. The cops told her she seemed “extremely intoxicated,” and she really didn’t like that.
The axed Bachelorette star slurs her words in the footage
In the new body cam footage obtained by TMZ, Taylor bickered with the police officers, showing off a level of privilege you kidn of just have to see to believe.
Inconsolable, Taylor staggered through her kitchen, getting increasingly agitated with the responding officer. At one point, she started asking him questions about his personal life and questioned what brought him there in the first place.
The officer reminded Taylor that her kids were in the house, and he said it was his job to prevent any more “trauma” from happening that night. That went right over Taylor’s head.
She asked, “What is your job exactly? Is it to arrest me? What is it?”
When the cop pointed out how drunk Taylor seemed, she got offended. She claimed that she only felt like a “2 out of 10” on a scale of drunkenness. She even challenged the officer to give her a breathalyzer, even though she could barely get that word out of her mouth because she was slurring so badly.
After a bathroom break, Taylor seemed to calm down. Her parents showed up and got the kids away from the chaos.
Of course, we all know how the night ended. The officers determined that Taylor was the aggressor in the fight and took her to jail. She eventually pleaded guilty to aggravated assault.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is streaming on Hulu and Disney+.
