After her public domestic dispute with her ex, Dakota Mortensen, which led to a SLOMW production pause and her season of The Bachelorette being scrapped, Taylor shared a lengthy statement on Instagram explaining her exit from the Hulu reality series.“My gratitude goes to all the networks that supported me throughout this and gave me the chance to return. However I don’t desire to move forward like this. I originally was willing to be removed to let them all continue on with less stress and I’m back to that point,” she wrote, in part, on September 21.Taylor then seemingly responded to Mikayla Matthews’ indirect statements about her domestic dispute when confirming her own exit from the Hulu reality series.“Some of the girls know what I’ve been through and then to turn and collectively pile on with their ‘statements’ knowing there has been ongoing abuse through the system the last 8 months on top of what I’ve endured. Almost the entire cast plus some, going at me….laughing about my kids is disgusting. And I bit my tongue there,” she continued, adding that she never agreed to taking a higher salary than the other MomTok members “out of fairness and integrity.”Taylor later shared that the show’s producers and crew had continuously checked on her and her well-being throughout her public crash-outs.JC Olivera//Getty Images“I agree it’s to the point of bullying for months now. What makes it harder to take in is some of these parents have made mistakes that would result in the same judgement I’m receiving yet pointing a finger,” she shared, closing her message. “However, it’s a pleasure to remove myself so they can continue, because I’ve almost convinced myself I’m deserving of all this pain and to a certain degree absolutely this is consequences of my actions. My question has been how much suffering and scrutiny is going to be enough…I’m just relieved to be out.”Before she confirmed she was done with SLOMW, Taylor’s fate was seemingly up in the air when season 5 was cut short due to her external drama with Dakota. Her update also comes after Mikayla announced her exit from the show and Jessi Draper confirmed that Dakota and Jordan Ngatikaura weren’t filming for season 6.
