Utah DCFS Seeks Supervision for Taylor Frankie Paul's 3 Children Amid Abuse Claims

Summary
Taylor Frankie Paul said Utah child welfare officials have petitioned juvenile court to place her three children under protective supervision after finding they may be abused, neglected or dependent.
In a July 18 vlog, Paul said she is reviewing the filing with her lawyers, wants the case kept sealed for the children, and argued any disputes over the allegations should be handled in court.
Paul, 32, denied a reported claim that she made daughter Indy, 8, change 2-year-old Ever's diapers, while saying she has recently made courtroom progress toward more time with Ever.
The petition lands amid separate custody fights with ex-husband Tate Paul and ex Dakota Mortensen, who recently won temporary custody of Ever before a judge later expanded Paul's unsupervised visitation.
The DCFS move broadens scrutiny of a family dispute already shaped by a 2023 domestic-violence plea deal, a closed 2026 police investigation, rehab treatment, and competing public statements from both fathers.
