From MomTok to The Bachelorette: Taylor Frankie Paul’s Groundbreaking Reality TV Journey

A Historic Announcement

Taylor Frankie Paul, 31, made a groundbreaking announcement on the ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast on September 10, 2025, revealing that she will be the next star of ‘The Bachelorette.’ The star of Hulu’s ‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ is set to make Bachelor Nation history.

Rising to Digital Fame

Paul first gained prominence as a key figure in #MomTok, a primarily Mormon community of mothers creating content together. Her influence has grown substantially, now commanding an impressive following of 7.2 million across Instagram and TikTok. Through her journey, she has openly addressed personal challenges, including a divorce, an arrest, and a miscarriage. At 31, Paul has learned to navigate both public scrutiny and the ‘villain’ label she acquired along the way.

Professional Success

Paul’s success has translated into significant financial achievements, with an estimated net worth of $3 million in 2025. Her income streams are diverse, including brand partnerships, TikTok content, reality TV contracts, sponsored Instagram posts, and merchandise sales. Her accomplishments were recognized when she made the Time100 Creators list in July 2025. While embarking on her Bachelorette journey, Paul will continue her role in ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,’ with the show’s third season scheduled for release in November 2025.

Looking Ahead

‘I am very scared to get out there and date. I can’t really even picture it happening for me,’ Paul has admitted, expressing concerns about potential suitors’ intentions and the challenges of dating as a mother of three. The Bachelorette Season 22, featuring Paul’s journey to find love, is confirmed to premiere in 2026.
