Late Thursday, Taylor Frankie Paul and her ex, Dakota Mortenson faced an Utah judge together, who made their respective restraining orders permanent. Both must stay 100 feet away from one another for the next three years. The judge called the pair toxic and acknowledged “there’s been violence both ways between these parties” as he set a later date to decide custody for their year old son, Ever.  Dakota currently has custody, Taylor only has 8 hours of supervised visits a week.
