DRAPER, UTAH: Taylor Frankie Paul, 28, a Mormon influencer who blew up the internet in May this year when she revealed that she and her husband were getting a divorce after soft swinging with her friend group, has now stated that she is battling with depression and has lost 90lbs after sex scandal backlash.

Taylor, who is quite active on TikTok, has been documenting everything from her pending divorce with husband Tate Paul, who filed for divorce after she crossed the line while swapping partners, to the introduction of her boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. However, when one of the users said, "I really wanna know how she is when the camera is off...I feel bad because I'm pretty sure she's so depressed and tries to stay happy," Taylor opened up about what's really going on in her life. She said, "I will tell you how I am doing. I am f**king sad. Sorry to say it that way, but that's just how I want to emphasize how I'm feeling," DailyMail reported.

'Struggling to be a good mom'

Taylor, who is a mother of two, daughter Indy, 4, and son Ocean, 2, said, "I actually texted one of my doctors today asking if I can go on some anti-anxiety, depression meds because I am really, really struggling. I’m actually almost down to 90 pounds, which is extremely unhealthy for my height and age.” She also added, "I am obviously struggling to be a good mom, a good friend, a good person right now, because I’m so in my head and lost, to be honest. I really feel like a lost soul. I cry every single day."

Taylor's divorce announcement

As previously reported, on May 20, Taylor used one of her lip-sync videos to announce that she is separating from her husband with caption “an unfortunate announcement.” Using audio from Miley Cyrus’s 'Malibu,' Taylor showed off a new pair of keys while standing in an empty home. The text on the video read, "In my twenties, getting divorced, started therapy, living on my own for the first time ever along with two little kids.”

The whole drama began when Taylor blew up the #MomTok community - mostly comprising of Mormons - back in May when she revealed the ground for divorce with her husband Tate. During a live stream on TikTok, she said, "The whole group was intimate with each other. Tate has made out with several girls and other things, and I've made out with all of the husbands and vice versa."
