  • Taylor Frankie Paul addressed allegations from fellow Utah mom McKenna Gibbons around the 2022 MomTok soft-swinging sex scandal.

  • Gibbons alleged that Paul and her ex-husband had sex and fell in love with each other after Gibbons told her they were done soft-swinging.

  • Paul pushed back and said that Gibbons "never asked to stop" and that "she was one of the instigators."

Taylor Frankie Paul is addressing new allegations that resurfaced around the MomTok soft-swinging sex scandal.

Utah mom McKenna Gibbons posted a five-part series on TikTok on Nov. 25 and spoke out about her part in the scandal and alleged that her ex-husband's involvement with Paul led to her own divorce.

That same day, the 30-year-old MomTok member posted a TikTok, addressing some of Gibbons' claims. In the video, she claimed Gibbons "never asked to stop" the soft-swinging and that "she was one of the instigators and [sent] HER husband to get me."

Paul shared receipts to back up her side of the story, which included a video of her kissing Gibbons, a photo of Paul with her and her ex-husband and screenshots of Gibbons's text messages.

"Well she deserves an acting award," Paul wrote in her caption of the video. "The amount of times SHE wanted to play."

In her five-part series, Gibbons — who was not a part of the first season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives — alleged that she and her husband at the time only participated in soft-swinging twice with an unnamed couple — allegedly Paul and her then-husband Tate.

"We did switch partners and soft-swinging happened," Gibbons said and added that she spoke to her husband after she noticed possible feelings between him and Paul at the time. "He said, 'Oh, actually, I talked to her after the cabin, and we both recognize that we get along really well and that things could grow,' " Gibbons said. " 'We both don't want to go down that route because we're happy in our marriages.' "

After the "second and final soft-swinging incident" took place, Gibbons told her husband, "If this is what you want then we can divorce now, because I won't participate." She then alleged that she spoke to Paul and also reiterated that she and her husband were done swinging and said that it was the "only conversation she had" about it.

Gibbons then said her "marriage took a turn" after her conversation with Paul and revealed that her husband admitted to kissing Paul after they initially agreed to stop soft-swinging. She was later told by a friend that Paul "admitted they had [sex]," and Gibbons' husband confirmed that with her.

Gibbons also found out from the friend that Paul and her husband had been "meeting up for some time" at Home Depot and they "told each other they loved one another" and their "plans to leave their spouses," which led to the divorce.

"I share these things in hopes others can learn from my mistakes," she wrote in the caption of her videos. "While I am not proud of my decisions back then, I have learned and grown so much from these experiences, it’s hard to wish anything different."

When Paul exposed the soft-swinging sex scandal back in June 2022, she also announced her divorce from Tate and spoke out about their open relationship at the time. They both agreed they wouldn't "go all the way" with anyone else, but she admitted that she "did step out of that agreement" and fell in love with one of the other husbands she was swinging with.

On an episode of The Viall Files back on Sept. 4, Paul clarified that she decided to tell her side of the story after the other MomTok girls liked comments about her being a "cheater" and husband stealer."

"So I got online, not thinking at all, but like, 'Hey yes, I did do this, but we were also all hooking up just the other night,' " she explained. "It just didn't feel like it was fair ... There was a lot more to the story than just I am some sort of home wrecker."
