Looks like the drama surrounding the 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' crew has spilled off-screen ... because several cast members have officially cut their social media ties with Taylor Frankie Paul.

Fans recently noticed a wave of unfollows from multiple women in the group ... sparking speculation that there may be more fractures existing behind the scenes.

An important wrinkle to the story ... Taylor actually unfollowed the women long before they decided to hit the same button this week -- excluding Taylor's bestie and ally Jessi Draper.

Mauricio Umansky is getting hot this summer ... and, no, we don't mean temperature wise ... he's over in a Monte Carlo looking lips with a hot babe on a floating dock.

TMZ obtained video showing Mauricio nuzzling and kissing a bikini-clad mystery woman at Monte Carlo Beach Club ... and it looks oh-so romantic.

Folks who were there tell us the pair were on the floating dock for about half an hour, soaking up the sun and packing on the PDA.

Kim Kardashian is gutted by the death of her grandmother, Mary Jo -- and she shared a heartbreaking tribute about how much the matriarch meant to her.

Shortly after Kris Jenner announced her mom's death, Kim shared her own lengthy message, along with a series of snaps with her late grandma MJ ... lamenting, "My sweet Grandma MJ, my best friend, my gossip buddy, my forever twin..."

Kim says ... "You taught all of us the importance of family, and those values are something we'll carry with us forever!!!!! You were the woman who showed me what it meant to be a hardworking businesswoman."

Bryce Alakai and Trinity Tatum wasted no time celebrating their "Love Island USA" victory after returning from Fiji ... 'cause they marked the occasion with a star-studded dinner before Bryce kept the party going from behind the DJ booth.

Bryce's manager, Eric Podwall, hosted the private celebration Wednesday night at The Bird Streets Club in West Hollywood, where about 20 guests gathered for a three-course tasting dinner on the members-only club's private terrace.

The guest list included fellow "Love Island USA" stars Zach and Charlie Georgiou, Kayda Bosse, *NSYNC's JC Chasez and his girlfriend Jennifer HuYoung, "Glee" stars Kevin McHale and Chris Colfer, Patrick Renna from "The Sandlot," and several other cast members from the hit Peacock series.

Taylor Frankie Paul's parenting, mental health, and home life are all being called into question by Utah's Department of Children and Family Services ... with allegations of troubling statements to caseworkers, concerns over her commitment to therapy, and parenting issues involving her children.

We broke the story ... according to a petition filed by Utah's DCFS and obtained by TMZ, the agency is asking a juvenile court to find Taylor's three children have been "abused, neglected or dependent."

According to that filing, Taylor told DCFS -- during a May 2026 home visit -- her life coach, Kari, was "the only reason she was still alive" and she wanted Kari to conduct her mental health and domestic violence assessments.

In its docs, DCFS claims it told Taylor that Kari wasn't qualified to do the assessments. During the same visit, the petition also says Taylor got upset after reading social media messages and stormed out of the home. DCFS claims she told caseworkers she wasn't suicidal, but they "should know who killed her if she ends up dead because she felt no one believes her."

'90 Day Fiancé' star Armando Niedermeier-Rubio is still waiting for a source of his daughter Hannah's brain bleed ... and in the meantime, TMZ has learned new details about her condition.

Armando's husband, Kenny Niedermeier, tells TMZ ... Hannah has bleeding in the middle or her brain and she's undergoing a battery of tests at a hospital in Phoenix.

Luckily, Kenny says the bleed "doesn’t seem active, which is a good sign of [it] not getting worse."

As we reported ... Kenny rushed to be by Hannah's side Thursday after Armando was declined entrance into the United States from his home country of Mexico despite his daughter's ICU stay.

Screenshots or it didn't happen? Gleb Savchenko says he's got 'em ... at least when it comes to his child custody war with his ex-wife.

The "Dancing with the Stars" pro says he has hard proof in his emergency custody battle with Elena Samodanova over daughters Olivia and Zlata... dropping screenshots he says prove she traveled to Moscow with their youngest daughter without his consent.

Gleb filed docs with the alleged proof ... one screenshot appears to show Elena's phone location pinging in Moscow ... while another captures a WhatsApp conversation with his law firm in which she allegedly says she arrived in Russia for a family funeral. Gleb claims the messages also confirm their youngest was with her.

"90 Day Fiancé" star Armando Niedermeier-Rubio is unable to enter the country to be by his daughter's side as she's being treated in the ICU ... because TMZ has learned he was turned away at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Here's the deal ... Armando announced Wednesday his daughter, Hannah, was rushed to the ER at a Mexican hospital after half her face became "droopy" and half her body lost its strength. Assuming something was wrong with her brain, he and the doctor decided to transfer Hannah to the USA so she could obtain better care.

Armando's husband, Kenny Niedermeier, tells TMZ ... Armando tried to enter the country using a letter from the hospital, but he was turned away.

Taylor Frankie Paul is facing a new legal battle ... 'cause Utah's Division of Child and Family Services has filed a petition asking a juvenile court to find her three children are "abused, neglected or dependent" and order protective supervision ... TMZ has learned.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ ... Utah DCFS filed the petition this week, asking the court to take jurisdiction over the "Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star's children with ex-husband Tate Paul and ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen and set the matter for an expedited hearing.

The filing asks a judge to find the children meet Utah's legal definition of "abused, neglected or dependent children" and to order protective supervision services, appoint a guardian ad litem to represent the children and issue any additional orders deemed to be in their best interests.

The petition also references the family's prior history with DCFS and ongoing custody matters involving the fathers of Taylor's children as part of the agency's request for court intervention.

Mason Haynes -- a longtime celebrity bodyguard who protected members of the Kardashian family and several other A-listers -- is dead.

A GoFundMe created for his family says Mason died in a traffic accident on July 4, just two days before what would have been his 53rd birthday.

Mason spent years working in close protection ... with the Kardashians among his first celebrity clients. He previously said he had worked with Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner and Kanye West ... along with Kevin Hart, Nicki Minaj, Charlie Puth and Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton.

Taylor Frankie Paul's taken a few Ls this year ... but she just won big in court and was granted her temporary restraining order against her ex's friend, TMZ has learned.

New court docs, obtained by TMZ, show that the court's siding with Taylor against Dakota Mortensen's friend, Cru Eaton.

In case you missed it, TFP had accused Cru -- the friend who posted the video of her sobbing during a blow-out fight with Dakota on TikTok -- of stalking and harassing her.

"Married to Medicine: Los Angeles" star Colin Dias says he's not trying to have his ex-wife whacked ... vehemently denying her claims that he's cooking up a murder-for-hire plot ... and alleging she's the real menace.

In a statement to TMZ, Dr. Dias' attorney -- Robert Eisfelder -- says his client denies Lia Jones' allegations and claims her latest filing ignores a lengthy history between the former couple.

We broke the story ... Lia beelined it to court Monday and filed for a domestic violence restraining order against Colin, claiming a neighbor told her Colin asked them "what would it cost to get rid of [her]." She claimed Colin talked to the neighbor about guns and was "actively looking and recruiting" someone to murder her.

Colin's attorney says it's all BS, though.

Jax Taylor's relationship with his longtime publicist Lori Krebs didn't begin with a secret affair ... it grew out of a friendship strengthened by some of life's biggest challenges … TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the pair tell TMZ … Jax and Lori have grown significantly closer over the past several months while supporting each other through their respective divorces and the unique experience of raising children with autism. We're told those deeply personal experiences created a bond that eventually turned romantic.

Our sources also tell us Lori -- who has always maintained a substance-free lifestyle -- became an important source of support during Jax's recovery ... helping him as he worked to get his life back on track.

Brielle Biermann says the only sign of Kroy on her wedding day might just be her last name ... because she has no idea if he even plans to show up.

Photogs got Brielle at LAX on Tuesday ... and they asked her if both Kroy and her mom, Kim Zolciak, planned to be at her wedding despite their nasty divorce.

Check out the clip ... Brielle says she can't answer that question -- because she hasn't heard from Kroy in a while, and she's got no idea what he's got up his sleeve.

"Dancing with the Stars" pro Gleb Savchenko's ex-wife, Elena Samodanova, is firing back at his claim she abducted their daughters and moved them to China ... insisting Hong Kong is the girls' permanent home and accusing him of wrongfully keeping one of their daughters in California by canceling her return flight.

Elena tells TMZ ... "The statement from Mr. Savchenko's attorney misrepresents our family's reality. As Olivia's primary caregiver, I have raised her every day while Gleb worked full-time on DWTS. Today, Olivia thrives in Hong Kong. She attends a top school and is an elite ballroom dancer."

She continues ... "Gleb's actions directly jeopardize her future, education, and athletic progress. California lacks jurisdiction over our daughter. Hong Kong is Olivia's permanent home and legal residency. Ironically, Gleb himself holds a Permanent Resident card there. Olivia was scheduled to return to Hong Kong on June 5th, but her father wrongfully canceled her ticket without my permission. This is a wrongful international retention."

Brittany Cartwright is getting out of town after TMZ published photos of her estranged husband, Jax Taylor, getting cozy with the couple's publicist, Lori Krebs, who Brittany has since fired.

We're told Brittany treated herself to a nail salon visit in Studio City before heading to the airport.
