Taylor Frankie Paul is focusing on her mental health.

A new report from People revealed that The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star recently decided to check herself into a rehab facility. In a statement shared with the outlet, a source close to the reality star shared that the decision was made "voluntarily" by Paul and "on the advice of her mental health team." While the name and the location of the facility were not revealed, the source noted that the facility in question specializes in providing mental health treatment, as well as care for other issues, including addiction and trauma.

And though Paul has since exited the facility and is back home, the source noted that the mother of three is very much "committed to working on herself and focusing on her family and being a good mom." She also has support from those around her, with the source adding: "The people around Taylor want her to get help [and] see her get better."

TMZ was first to break the news of the 32-year-old's rehab stint, which the outlet reports was only a week long. Paul's rehab stay also reportedly served as a point of contention for her ex, Dakota Mortensen, with whom she shares her 2-year-old son, Ever, who claimed it violated their dual protective orders, after Paul allegedly had a third party reach out to a third party to set up visitation with their son in an attempt to make up for a visit she missed while in rehab.

While there are no active cases against Paul or Mortensen, according to the outlet, the Bluffdale Police in Utah were contacted by the 33-year-old real estate agent about a possible protective order violation. Police were also in contact with Paul to determine if a violation occurred.

The SLOMW star, who also shares daughter Indy, 8, and son Ocean, 6, with ex-husband Tate Paul, alluded to the incident in a June 29 Instagram Stories post shared by TMZ, where she wrote: "Cops called on me again THIS WEEK… what are the odds?"

"And it's not people… it's ONE person the same person," the reality star continued, without naming names. "It's obsessive."

Paul and Mortensen's contentious, on-again, off-again relationship took a turn when unseen video footage of Paul's 2023 domestic violence arrest was leaked in March, just as her season of The Bachelorette was due to air. The video saw Paul yelling and throwing chairs at Mortensen while a child was nearby. The incident led ABC to pull her season, and forced Hulu to press Paul on the filming of SLOMW.

Both Paul and Mortensen have been in and out of court since, with both parties alleging abuse over the course of their three-year on-again, off-again romance. The pair is also battling for custody of their son, with Mortensen granted temporary custody earlier this year, allowing Paul supervised visits.

A judge on June 1, however, removed the mandatory supervision, issuing Paul custody of Ever on the same midweek day each week without overnights as well as alternating weekends. The judge said that Mortensen will remain the "custodial parent" on holidays.

The pair is due back in court next week.
