Taylor Frankie Paul makes out with ‘Bachelorette’ contestant in resurfaced video from axed show

Taylor Frankie Paul had a steamy make-out session with one of her “Bachelorette” contestants in a resurfaced video from her axed season.

In a November 2025 TikTok video, Paul and contestant Shane Parton — rumored to be her runner-up — were featured on the kiss cam at a Las Vegas Raiders game.

After sharing a rather passionate kiss, the pair smiled and waved to the audience.

Several photos from the date resurfaced as well, showing the duo playing on the field and hanging out with the cheerleaders, per TMZ.

Footage of Paul’s date surfaced a day after ABC canceled the Season 22 premiere of “The Bachelorette,” where 22 men competed for her heart.

The network made the decision after a video of a 2023 domestic violence incident involving Paul and her ex Dakota Mortensen was leaked.

In the disturbing footage, Paul is seen throwing multiple chairs at Mortensen. One of the chairs allegedly hit Paul’s daughter, Indy, who was 5 at the time.

A few days before the video was released, news broke about a domestic abuse investigation regarding a February incident between Paul and Mortensen.

As for how Paul feels about the installment’s cancellation, her rep tells Page Six, “Taylor is very grateful for ABC’s support as she prioritizes her family’s safety and security.”

“After years of silently suffering extensive mental and physical abuse as well as threats of retaliation, Taylor is finally gaining the strength to face her accuser and taking steps to ensure that she and her children are protected from any further harm.”

Since the season was canceled, several of the contestants have spoken out, including the rumored winner, Doug Mason.

“In light of everything that’s happened, I’m just sending out prayers to Taylor because that was her moment and her moment was blocked. All we can do right now is just be hopeful,” he said on his Instagram Stories Friday.

“Let’s stay positive and show nothing but support for people in need,” Mason concluded.

The domestic violence investigation has also put filming for Season 5 of “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” on hold.
