Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Mikayla Matthews said she’s “disgust[ed]” by Taylor Frankie Paul’s actions amid their feud, as Taylor clapped back in a scathing post. The star also shared more details about her controversial relationship with Dakota Mortensen.

Recently, Taylor reposted a video from a content creator claiming she doesn’t understand how Mikayla can be “advocating for childhood SA” while “marrying [her] perpetrator,” suggesting that Mikayla’s husband groomed her.

At one point, Mikayla addressed Taylor’s custody battle with Dakota, as both exes are accusing the other of abuse. Mikayla compared Taylor’s actions to the use of a cream, saying it’s like knowing that the cream gives her rashes but continuing to use it. In the analogy, her past relationship with Dakota is considered the cream. Amid their feud, Mikayla declared that she wouldn’t be commenting anymore.

“When I say I’m not commenting anymore, never am I talking about my trauma or abuse,” wrote Mikayla in a comment on @stephwithdadeets’ post. “Cause I can’t even fathom reposting something telling a victim of childhood SA that they ‘can’t be an advocate’, and then instead of saying ‘wow, I went too far’ and apologizing, continuing to make threats and double down.”

“It’s honestly disgusting,” she added. “I’m absolutely livid and sick to my stomach. If before all of this I was already 100% certain I didn’t want to participate in or support something profiting off vile behavior, now I’m 10000% more certain. And anyone else who wants to make excuses/justifications or support it either 👋🏻👋🏻.”

Soon after, Taylor clapped back with her own comment on a @stephwithdadeets post.

“Oh wow [Mikayla is] still going days later,” wrote Taylor. “Why would I apologize to someone that came at me first?? She contradicted her entire statement by now proudly still supporting a man that she knows hurt me.”

“She is crying over reposts as if she didn’t diminish mine herself. She wanted me fired and lost that battle,” Taylor continued. “[She] spitefully shows support to my sister, tells MY mom happy Mother’s Day … [I] wonder if she knows I didn’t make it to my moms because I was struggling after a ‘friend’ added to the smear campaign after I just caught my breath.”

She then addressed Mikayla’s claim that she’s “disgusted” by Taylor’s repost.

“I’m disgusted by you entirely,” said Taylor. “[You mentioned the] rash cream thinking it was a clever analogy which actually hurt MANY MORE WOMEN with that one. People love to come at me and then cry because they can’t handle same energy returned. Only reason she even took a shot at me is because I’m at my weakest. Fool them, not fooling me girl.”

“Notice how the rest are silent?” asked Taylor, presumably referring to the rest of the cast. “Except those who say ‘She’s brave to tell Taylor, Go Mikayla’ … You kicked someone after I [was] getting kicked by thousands. Wow true strength. Nah that’s a bully. You owe me nothing and I never asked. Please focus on your healing instead of judging mine and I’ll add you in my prayers even though you want me down.”

A few hours later, Taylor wrote a cryptic post on Instagram.

“I said I wanted to share the process and it’s hard with limited context right now,” she said. “Accountability is needed I’m well aware. … My exact thoughts this entire time and more [are] coming.”

“You can see things for what you want. Truth always prevails,” she continued. “This all ties together in some way. Some are absolutely out to see me fall and that isn’t an assumption, that is fact. ‘Log off would be easier and would help’ Sure. I don’t want easier, I want to share even as ugly and as hard as it is. And if it’s so exhausting to see maybe log off yourself? … And yes [I’m] selfie crying because I’m always crying my make up off, [and] pose for it at that point.”

In the second slide of her post, Taylor said she “hate[s]” that she “stayed for so long,” alluding to her relationship with Dakota. She also said she admitted in court that she’s “fully NOT INNOCENT.”

“I was scared to call for help or tell anyone because I was being reminded I would be the one in trouble given I’m the one on probation already,” said the star. “Imagine being pregnant & postpartum healing internally and too scared to ask for help or at the very least speak about it and he knew he had that advantage which gave him MORE access to do whatever knowing I’d remain silent.”

“I was love bombed then manipulated, threatened, physically hurt, cops called on me, publicly humiliated, lost most friends because he got to them, CPS called, and now in court all because I said no more and he knew I meant it this time,” she added. “We’re both in the wrong. … And then we have friends like Mikayla that come at me during all this, and now she wants me to apologize? Absolutely not. She can go kick rocks instead of kicking me right now.”
