ABC has shelved plans for a "Bachelorette" season featuring "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star Taylor Frankie Paul following renewed scrutiny of her 2022 domestic violence arrest. The network confirmed the decision Thursday, citing concerns about the optics of promoting someone with a recent domestic violence conviction.

Paul pleaded guilty to misdemeanor domestic violence in 2023 after allegedly throwing objects at her boyfriend during an argument. She completed three years of probation earlier this month. ABC had been in early development on a "Bachelorette" season centered on Paul, capitalizing on her reality-TV fame and massive TikTok following.

The decision comes amid broader entertainment-industry debates about when—and whether—to platform figures with domestic violence histories. Paul has not publicly commented on the cancellation. Her representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
