Taylor Frankie Paul hurled multiple chairs at Dakota Mortensen in a horrifying video released Thursday.
Footage of the 2023 altercation, obtained by TMZ, began with the âSecret Lives of Mormon Wivesâ star attempting to put her ex in a headlock as he claimed her actions were âphysical abuseâ and âhurt[ing]â him.
After backing off, the âBacheloretteâ lead tried to kick Mortensen â before throwing metal barstools across the room in his direction.
Mortensen repeatedly shouted that Paulâs daughter â 8-year-old Indy, who was 5 at the time â was present as he backed away toward the couch, where the little one was curled up.
The child could then be heard crying after seemingly being struck â and Mortensen later claimed, âYour daughter just got hit in the head with a metal chair.â
As Indy continued to wail, Mortensen and Paulâs argument raged on, with the latter repeatedly screaming, âYou did this. You threw me.â
Paul, notably, later alleged to police that Mortensen threw her on the ground before he began filming her with his cell phone.
Mortensen, mid-scuffle, urged Paul to âgo help [her] daughter,â and when he attempted to do so, she yelled at him to âget awayâ from Indy.
After Mortensen professed his âloveâ for Paulâs children and accused her of being âdrunk,â the doorbell rang with police arriving at the scene.
Mortensen told officials Paul was âhammeredâ and he was âsober,â to which the MomTok star replied, âYouâre throwing stuff at me sober?â
