We’ve got a meeting of reality show franchises.<\/p>\n

And we’ve also got a Bachelor first!<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, while appearing as a guest on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast, Taylor Frankie Paul <\/strong>confirmed that she will lead Season 22 of The Bachelorette.<\/p>\n

“You are on Call Her Daddy so we can officially announce that you are this season’s Bachelorette. How are you feeling?” host Alex Cooper asked Paul on air.<\/p>\n

Surreal. It has not hit me right now in this moment,” she replied. “I’m just thinking about it, and it’s not real. And it’s not going to be until I think the limo is pulling up, you know? And meeting the people.”<\/p>\n

Paul is best known as member of the #MomTok community.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the most controversial<\/em> member of this community, Paul has made headlines in the past for her participation in various sex parties<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She announced her divorce in a May 2022 livestream, which followed the reveal that she and her ex-husband were swingers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In February of 2023, meanwhile, Taylor was arrested and charged with three misdemeanors<\/a>; she booked at the time for assault, criminal mischief, and domestic violence in the presence of a child.<\/p>\n

Indeed, Paul represents the most famous Bachelorette in history (she has over four million TikTok followers!) and is likely the most scandalous, as well.<\/p>\n

“How did I get here? In my head I’m like, ‘How is this happening?’ That’s my answer,” the mother of three also said on the aforementioned podcast, emphasizing that she’s “nervous” and adding of her thinking when first asked by ABC executives to take on the role:<\/p>\n

“How do I make this work? I’m a co-parent I have two baby daddies not one, so I’m dealing with two different people, my children, my home base is here. Can I travel that long? Can I be gone that long?”<\/p>\n

The influencer shares two children, Indy and Ocean, with ex-husband Tate Paul; and a son, Ever, with ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen.<\/p>\n

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, for its part, follows the aftermath of Paul’s marriage ending, leading her to expose that a group of friends from MomTok were “soft-swinging” and “had an arrangement” together. <\/p>\n
