Yes, Taylor and Dakota from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives are still together despite many moments of tension in their relationship. But in a shocking turn of events in the season's final episode, we see Taylor suspect Dakota of cheating on her. We will have to wait for season 2 to find solid answers about the truth and how it affects the couple's relationship.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives revolves around the Momtok Mothers who appear on the show. The mummies were previously involved in a scandal. Taylor Frankie Paul went live on a video and confessed that she, along with the other members of the group and their husbands, were sleeping around with each other.
Tate Paul, her then-husband, upon learning the truth, divorced her. He left Taylor when he learned that she had slept with another man and had broken their rule of not being fully involved in soft swinging. Taylor has since changed and is now dating Dakota Mortensen. In August 2023, she pleaded guilty to assaulting her boyfriend.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Are Taylor and Dakota still together?
In May 2022, Taylor Frankie Paul started dating Dakota Mortensen shortly after her divorce from Tate Paul, as mentioned in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Her mother was concerned about this relationship because Dakota was a substance dependency struggler. Six months into the affair, Taylor was hospitalized for an ectopic pregnancy; it was an extremely stressful period.
Matters got worse for the couple when, in February 2023, Taylor was arrested for assaulting Dakota by damaging his property and also for domestic violence in the presence of a child.
Many believed this was the end of their love life, but in March 2023, Taylor showed they were still very much in love. They found out in July 2023 that they were expecting a baby. Taylor pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in August 2023; all other charges were withdrawn. The couple then decided to move in together to try to make their relationship healthy while waiting for their soon-to-arrive baby.
Taylor and Dakota had many challenging moments, especially at that time when Taylor thought Dakota was cheating.
After the show's premiere on Hulu, Taylor talked to Parade about her feelings towards Dakota, saying,
“I definitely love him a lot, We came into this relationship with a lot of baggage, and it’s been really hard to work through…it’s been rocky but I choose him always”

In the first season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Taylor gives birth to her first child with Dakota on March 19, 2024, and names the baby boy Ever. Shared parenthood plays the main role in bringing the couple together.
Taylor and Dakota can't get enough of their baby boy. Dakota enjoys watching Taylor and the baby sleep; he has described it as a scene of peace. In June 2024, they traveled to Hawaii with Taylor's two children from her previous marriage, Indy and Ocean. In August 2024, Dakota even took them to his sister's wedding in Idaho.

“If there’s nothing to hide, there should be no question.”
