The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul is once again drawing attention amid her continuing custody dispute.
A new report alleges that the mother of three failed several drug tests in recent weeks, resulting in a reduction of her visitation time with her children.
According to TMZ, sources familiar with the custody matter claim Taylor failed the tests within the past 60 days. The court has reportedly limited her to a total of eight hours per week with her three children.
Under the reported arrangement, Taylor will have four hours weekly with the two children she shares with ex-husband Tate Paul — 9-year-old Indy and 6-year-old Ocean — and another four hours with her 2-year-old son, Ever, whom she shares with Dakota Mortensen.
The substances Taylor, 32, allegedly tested positive for have not been identified. One source told the outlet that one of the substances is not commonly available through a prescription.
Sources close to Taylor spoke with TMZ and did not deny the allegations. Instead, they characterized the leak as ongoing harassment and intimidation in light of the gag order issued in the custody case.

As reported in July, Tate and Dakota appeared to have aligned in their separate custody disputes with Taylor, including by using the same attorneys.
Tate is seeking sole custody of the two children he shares with Taylor. His previous request for a temporary restraining order against her was denied, though his case prompted a judge to order drug and alcohol testing for the SLOMW star.
Back then, it was required for Taylor to pass her drug tests if she hoped to regain her solo parenting rights which includes unsupervised visits.
And back in July, child services filed a petition against Taylor as they asked a court to intervene to determine that her three children had been “abused, neglected or dependent.”
Then in August, Tate petitioned the courts as he requested that they unseal Taylor’s drug tests amid their custody battle.
After a shocking video of Taylor fighting with Dakota was leaked earlier this year, during which she could be seen throwing chairs and screaming at him with her daughter nearby, Dakota was granted temporary full custody of their son as well as a temporary restraining order against her.
Back in April, Dakota and Taylor were each granted three-year mutual protective orders.
