TATE'S TRO DENIED! Court Tosses Restraining Order Against Taylor Frankie Paul
A Utah judge shut down Tate Paul's bid to restrict his ex-wife—finding no proof of immediate danger. Here's what went down.
Plot twist in the Taylor Frankie Paul custody saga! A Utah court has denied Tate Paul's request for a temporary restraining order against his ex-wife, according to court documents obtained by E! Online on July 1. The judge determined there simply wasn't enough evidence to show Taylor posed an immediate threat—a major legal win for the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star.
Tate filed for the restraining order, but the court found his supporting claims were largely based on inadmissible hearsay, leaving his case on shaky legal ground. And here's the kicker: Taylor had custody of the couple's children at the time, which also factored into the court's decision. The exes have kept things relatively civil since their 2023 split, maintaining a good coparenting relationship despite the public firestorm that erupted after Taylor exposed their "soft-swinging" lifestyle in 2022.
This latest court ruling suggests things will stay steady on the home front for Taylor and the kids. While the legal drama may have grabbed headlines, sources say the former couple has been focused on moving forward for their family's sake—and this decision keeps that status quo intact.
