Taylor Frankie Paul Allegedly Got Upset While Filming ‘The Bachelorette’
Although the new season of “The Bachelorette” has been canceled due to Taylor’s scandal, one of the male contestants on the show had been aware of her dark past. Sources claimed Casey Hux brought up the incident during a one-on-one date with Taylor.
One source claimed Taylor got very emotional, while another alleged that she was so upset she stormed off the set. Sources told TMZ that Hux had asked about the domestic violence incident because he was aware of Taylor’s arrest but not the viral video of what happened.
Hux reportedly wanted to know if Taylor had learned from the experience and how she had grown from her past self. Taylor had been arrested in 2023 for attacking her ex-boyfriend, with the controversy worsening due to fresh allegations of abuse from a February 2026 incident.
Did The TV Personality Downplay The Alleged Date Gone Wrong?
News of Taylor’s awful one-on-one date with Hux came over a week after she opened up about having a bad encounter with one of the contestants. She shared a video of herself repeatedly flipping the bird while listening to Lily Allen’s “F-ck You” song on March 12.
“Taylor, did he get to you? Me: No, he wishes,” the overlay text read. Taylor shed more light on what happened in the post’s caption, explaining that the video captured her mood moments after someone got to her on “The Bachelorette.”
Taylor claimed she did not care after the incident happened, but “producers were like ‘ohhh gotta get this…she clearly cares.'” At the time, the post generated positive responses from fans, with many being supportive. These comments have since been replaced by critics condemning her past actions.
