\n\t\t\tThe future of one of ABC\u2019s hit reality TV shows is up in the air after the network decided to cancel Taylor Frankie Paul\u2019s season of The Bachelorette amid domestic violence allegations. A source exclusively tells Us Weekly that the network does not currently have plans to bring in another Bachelorette as a replacement for [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Footage from the incident was leaked in March, showing Taylor physically assaulting and throwing chairs at Dakota, 33, in front of her daughter. (Taylor shares daughter Indy, 8, and son Ocean, 5, with ex-husband Tate Paul<\/b>, as well as son Ever, 2, with Dakota.)<\/p>\n

Dakota and Taylor were later the subject of an additional police investigation in Utah after additional and separate alleged altercations, including an alleged domestic violence incident in February. A judge granted the now-exes protective orders<\/span> and awarded Dakota sole custody of Ever until a future court hearing. Taylor, for her part, was granted supervised visitation until the hearing. Local authorities also declined to file charges against Taylor pertaining to the alleged February incident.<\/p>\n
