THE BACHELORETTE CANCELLATION
Yes, I am ashamed to admit that I have been watching The Bachelorette since the pandemic lockdown. There wasn’t much else to do at the time, so please don’t judge me too harshly, (as I do myself!) And then I started watching The Bachelor the next season. (But I held off on Bachelor in Paradise until 2023, when a very intelligent and successful show biz executive heavily suggested it to me, and Mr. X and I didn’t want to disappoint him.)

So I feel qualified to weigh-in on the inane situation that ABC finds itself in now with the newest creepy Bachelorette, whose fully-shot season they just had to cancel!
Taylor Paul was a stupid choice anyway. First of all, she wasn’t even a part of the franchise to begin with, as all other Bachelorettes have been. On top of that, she’s not even remotely attractive. At all. She looks like a washed-up old drugged-out harlot. As soon as we saw the (very many) promos for the upcoming rendition, Mr. X and I had already decided to not waste any time watching this season of the show.
If you don’t know this latest show biz gossip, here’s the tea: For some unknown reason, instead of booking one of the popular rejects from the former season of The Bachelor to be the new Bachelorette this season, the show hired this skank from Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives. I had never even heard of that show until this last season of Dancing With the Stars, when ABC took two of those “wives” to compete on the dance floor. So it must be popular among the idiots who watch reality TV. And that may be why The Bachelorette went against their own unwritten rules, and chose a divorced mother-of-three, (with two different men,) to vie for love with strange men. Who could have seen a debacle coming???
The answer is everyone, of course. But not like this. The situation is worse than any of us could have imagined.
Taylor Paul’s ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen.
So, after this entire season was already filmed, and about to start airing on March 22th, (with at least a month of seemingly non-stop promos!,) a popular website published a tape of Taylor attacking her serious ex-boyfriend, (and baby daddy,) Dakota Mortensen in 2023. She even threw heavy metal chairs at him! Even worse, her five-year-old daughter was in the room! And the kid got hit in the head by one of those objects!!! What is wrong with that woman???
She got arrested for alleged domestic violence back then, and was charged with misdemeanor assault, criminal mischief, and commission of domestic violence in the presence of a child. OMG, am I right? (In August 2023, she pleaded guilty to one count of third-degree aggravated assault, and was placed on probation for the next three years. The other charges were dismissed. But my research shows that the authorities are considering even more charges against Taylor Paul, stemming from second and third incidents!)
After that three-year-old video of the attack came to life on this March 19th, her upcoming season of The Bachelorette was cancelled, just three days before its premiere!!! A Disney Entertainment Television issued a statement announcing the cancellation, explaining, “In light of the newly released video just surfaced today, we have made the decision to not move forward with the new season of The Bachelorette at this time, and our focus is on supporting the family.” What family???
Taylor Paul, looking as confused as the rest of us are as to why she was ever chosen to be this season’s The Bachelorette!
So now the big question is: Why didn’t the show vet this stranger??? I always thought that everyone who applies to be on the show is investigated, so how did the ABC powers-that-be miss this major situation??? TMZ seems to have had no trouble uncovering the info and video, so why did ABC’s high-powered detectives not get the memo??? Or actually, why didn’t whatever channel Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives is on catch it, especially because that series didn’t begin airing until late 2024? And she and Mortensen weren’t married, so she wasn’t even a “wife!”
No matter who is to blame for that oversight, let’s all thank them for the reprieve we’re all getting from these low-life shows. Maybe the cancellation will be just what we The Bachelor franchise possibly-addicts need to break free! And let’s just hope that Taylor does not show up on the next Dancing With the Stars!
