Taylor Frankie Paul

"Honestly, it's been a heavy time to see the headlines, especially during this time of 'The Bachelorette' being released."

"Taylor has remained silent out of fear of further abuse, retaliation, and public shaming."

"I’m a person that will always speak my truth, and that’s what I’m known for, and so when the time is right, I will be."

"My kids come first."

"I've had better days, I will say…"

"But I’m excited to be here today with you guys, so thank you for having me."

"Honestly, just like, my heart hurts to see it, to go through it, especially at this time."

""I'm a person that will always speak my truth. That's what I'm known for. So when the time is right, I will be.""
