Taylor Frankie Paul Files Stalking Injunction Against Dakota Mortensen's Friend Who Posted Video of Her Crying

Reality television star Taylor Frankie Paul has filed a civil stalking injunction against an associate of her ex-partner, Dakota Mortensen. The legal action follows the unauthorized posting of a video showing Paul in a distressed state during a domestic argument.
Why it matters
The case highlights the intersection of social media, public privacy, and ongoing legal disputes in the lives of reality television personalities.
Taylor Frankie Paul ain't playing around ... she just filed a civil stalking injunction against Dakota Mortensen's friend who posted the video of her sobbing during a blow-out fight with him on TikTok.
The 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' star filed the legal doc against Cru Eaton in Utah's Salt Lake County Friday, and says she has video and/or photographic evidence to support her case. The petition isn't a restraining order, but a request for a judge to force Dakota's close pal to stop stalking or harassing her.
The move comes after Cru took it upon himself to share a wild video of Taylor sobbing as Dakota filmed her during an intense argument in which he accused her of being abusive.
