Criminality
Pop, Lock, and (Viral) Shock: Can #MomTok Survive Taylor Frankie Paul?
Episode notes
Can #MomTok survive a Criminality episode? We’re about to find out because Melissa is diving headfirst into the whirlwind world of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” with a focus on none other than the notorious Taylor Frankie Paul.
Taylor isn't your typical Mormon mom—in fact, her connection to the faith seems more rumor than reality. But what she *is*, is the OG Mom at the center of #MomTok’s rise, fall, and scandalous swinging saga. For years, #MomTok thrived in one very specific corner of the internet, until a shocking soft-swinging scandal blew up in Utah, grabbing global attention.
And just when you thought it couldn't get wilder, Taylor’s personal life took center stage—new man, new drama. From cheating accusations and surprise pregnancies to arrests and criminal charges, it’s a non-stop reality TV-level ride.
But wait—there’s another Mormon mom who went viral in the #MomTok universe for an unforgettable moment that you won’t believe. Melissa breaks it all down, so whether you’re deeply entrenched in #MomTok drama or just catching up, this story has a little something for everyone.
