Are Taylor Frankie Paul’s Exes Crashing Her ‘The Bachelorette’ Journey?
“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star Taylor Frankie Paul has officially been named “The Bachelorette,” a bold and fresh direction for the franchise that fans are already buzzing about.
Fans of the Hulu series already know her history of complicated romances, including the swinging scandal that involved Miranda McWhorter’s ex, Chase McWhorter, that ended her marriage to Tate Paul and her turbulent relationship with ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. Paul is now looking for a fresh start, but are her exes going to be a part of her journey?

Dakota Mortensen & Chase McWhorter Joke About Being Part of Taylor Frankie Paul’s ‘The Bachelorette’
Taylor Frankie Paul is on a quest to find the one as she begins her “The Bachelorette” journey. The popular TikTok star is currently filming her season of the beloved series, but will her exes, Chase McWhorter and Dakota Mortensen, try and interfere with her finding love again?
In a TikTok, McWhorter filmed himself and Mortensen crossing a street and exchanging a handshake, showing how close they’ve remained despite their past with Paul. However, it was the caption that left fans speculating about whether they might appear on the show.
“Two thorns in pursuit of a rose?” McWhorter captioned his TikTok with the addition of a rose emoji. Fans in the comment section implied that the two men might be fighting for Paul’s attention, and we’re not exactly happy. “ABSOLUTELY NOT, do not ruin this for her,” a fan wrote.
In fact, even MomTok’s Mayci Neeley commented on his post with, “Don’t even,” to which McWhorter replied, “We’ve changed mayci!!”
Fans who watched the current season 3 of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” saw Paul and McWhorter surprisingly reconnect after he played a part in their soft-swining scandal. In the final minutes of season 3, McWhorter asks Paul if they should kiss for “old time’s sake.”
But with Paul filming “The Bachelorette,” it’s obvious that a romance with McWhorter, if there ever was one, didn’t work out.
Paul Has Been Teasing Her ‘Bachelorette’ Season

Taylor Frankie Paul has been teasing fans with moments of her “The Bachelorette” journey on social media.
Taking to Instagram, Paul shared a video of her attending a Las Vegas Raiders game with one of her “Bachelorette” contestants. In the clip, she wears a varsity jacket that reads “Team Taylor” as her mysterious partner is holding a football and then reaching out to hold her hand. The clip also shows them wearing matching sneakers with the words “Team Taylor” on them.
According to TMZ, Paul was also spotted filming “The Bachelorette” in Las Vegas with a contestant named Casey Hux. In the clip, the two are seen in bathrobes as she jumps into his arms and kisses him. A cast lineup by Cosmopolitan revealed that Hux is 30 years old and hails from Midlothian, Virginia.
The Bold and the Beautiful Week of November 24 Update: Sheila & Deacon’s Double Date – Katie & Will’s New Job Offers
The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers update for the week of November 24-28 reveals that Sheila Sharpe (Kimberlin Brown) and Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) will have a double date while Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) are given some new job offers.
Now that Deputy Chief Bradley Baker (Dan Martin) has confirmed Luna Nozawa’s (Lisa Yamada) demise, there’ll be tons of talk about her online.
The Luna saga will apparently capture everyone’s attention in the media and bring some unwanted attention to Forrester Creations, where Luna used to work.
Katie will plan on putting out some PR fires, but Brooke Logan Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) will admit someone else has taken over as the head of PR.
Brooke may think Katie needs to focus on healing her family right now and use that to announce they’ve put someone else in charge in the meantime.
Since Hayes Finnegan’s (Bryan David Garlick) former art teacher, Dylan (Sydney Bullock), will appear all dressed up at Forrester Creations, she might score a PR job if she’s got some secret experience for it.
Dylan got caught up in the Luna mess as a hostage back in the summer, but she’s still more of an outsider than Katie in this situation.
Katie is the grandmother of the baby Luna was carrying and was literally out on the beach searching for her when that car ran her over.
It’s clear that Katie’s too close to all this, but Dylan’s brief hostage stint isn’t a fresh wound and isn’t tied to the latest escape drama.
Whatever the case, Katie and Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) will ultimately react to some strange texts that bring a mystery.
Dylan may solve that mystery if she sent them since she’s about to corner Electra and make a confession.
If Dylan believed Remy Pryce (Christian Weissmann) during the deepfake fiasco and somehow helped him or said something negative about Electra, she may want to apologize for that.
Then again, Dylan’s confession could be about Luna or something else entirely.
It’ll be interesting to hear what Dylan’s news is when she ambushes Electra in the design office.
As for Bill Spencer (Don Diamont), it looks like he’ll reclaim his old “Dollar Bill” mentality and determine that this new-and-improved thing just isn’t for him.
Bill may revert to his former self a bit since B&B spoilers say he’ll make some sort of comeback.
Of course, Bill won’t do anything too wild since he won’t want to wreck things with Katie.
Instead, Bill will stress the importance of Spencer family unity and will invite Katie to come work at Spencer Publications along with Will if he’ll agree to it.
There’ll also be an adorable Thanksgiving episode on Wednesday, November 26, so look for Sheila and Deacon to have a double date at Il Giardino.
Deacon and Sheila will convince Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) to join them for a meal at the restaurant, so the four of them will count their blessings.
Sheila will remain thankful to Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) for pushing Deacon back in his wife’s direction, but Deacon and Taylor will secretly be pining for each other.
However, Taylor will take some time to concentrate on her family for a while since she’ll be part of a Thanksgiving celebration with Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) and the kids at the cliff house.
Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) will be a surprise guest at that get-together, so Taylor will plaster on a smile and try not to think about how much he hurt her.
After a repeat airs on Thursday, November 27, B&B will be preempted on Friday, November 28.
It’ll be a short week of episodes, but there’ll still be plenty of good stuff to look forward to!
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say the week of November 24-28 will bring some unexpected proposals and important admissions, so stick with us for updates on all the action.
