This shouldn’t be ‘relatable’ or entertainment in anyway. Supporting an ADULT doesn’t mean constantly making excuses for toxic behavior while giving unconditional sympathy and grace with zero accountability or change.

Love you all.” Matthews’ post comes days after the release of “Mormon Wives” Season 5, which saw her and Paul get into multiple arguments after Matthews pointed out chaotic patterns in Paul’s dating life, with Paul finding Matthews to be harsh and judgmental. The conflicts depicted took place before TMZ published footage from a domestic incident between Paul and her ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen in which Paul threw metal chairs at him. The ensuing scandal has involved domestic violence allegations from both parties, mutual restraining orders and a custody battle, as well as the cancellation of Paul’s “Bachelorette” season.

Her castmates Mayci Neeley and Layla Taylor both left comments of support on her announcement.
