Last week, Ashley, we spoke about Taylor taking a 17 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: break from social media. It looked like she was kind 18 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 2: of taking a break from reality, a vacation some might 19 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: call it. But now we're getting Taylor back onto our phones. 20 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: She posted a series of photos showing her reality today. 21 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, people are asking her, like what her day to 22 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 3: day is, and so she was documenting like this is 23 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 3: my day sometimes or I like stress the heck out 24 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 3: all day and then here's my day where I just 25 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 3: kind of hang out with the kids. And now she's 26 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 3: trying to sort of show her wellness routine spray tan h. 27 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 3: She says she's been trying to do red Light therapy 28 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 3: for her mental health. Likes it so far. And then 29 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 3: she has a roller like a stress roller for her 30 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 3: body and she likes using that. But yeah, she's getting 31 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 3: ready for our busy season of life, which is the 32 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 3: fact that her season's going. She's starting to do press 33 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: for her season. And she's also reading the Bible, as 34 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 3: I know that she does often that is not the Bible, okay, 35 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 3: so possibly a Bible which is like it's it's called 36 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 3: Jesus calling. I recognize it. It's like a devotion. So 37 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: I don't it feels so awkward. 38 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: I'm not making you feel awkward. I just can't have 39 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: you say she's reading the Bible. 40 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 3: It's okay. The book passage though, that I'm looking at, 41 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: includes a passage from Isaaah jeremiahs you're close Okay, yeah, 42 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 3: so there's so there's something in there. 43 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you weren't like off. I'm just saying that's like 44 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: the Jesus Calling devotional that has been popular for like 45 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: Goodness at thirty years forty years. It's uh, you know, 46 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: it looks like Taylor is back to her real life, 47 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 2: which is not. I think that's the thing that we 48 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 2: want to see, is this. There is a part of 49 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 2: me that is concerned for Taylor in the sense that, yes, 50 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: Secret Lives is airing in March, and she's gonna be 51 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: the Bachelorette soon after that on television. 52 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: Who can do this? Like, who can handle this life? 53 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 3: I'm not really sure. 54 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 2: When we have three kids? And then the next headline 55 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 2: is this Taylor hints she's back at filming. She posted 56 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: this on the twenty first of January, so just like 57 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 2: a few days ago she posted She's back to filming. 58 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 2: What else is she filming?

What have 127 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 2: you learned about Taylor Frankie Paul through our Frankie Fridays 128 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 2: that makes you excited for her to be the Bachelorette? 129 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: Well, we know that she's unfiltered. 130 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: Love that. 131 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 3: I love that there's this drama with Dakota where it's like, 132 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: why are possibly why are we being the Bachelorette. If 133 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 3: there's something that's still pulling us towards Dakota, that's fun. 134 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: Is it? 135 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 3: No, not for not for her, but for possibly the 136 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 3: viewers viewers. I feel like I know her very well. 137 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 3: There's that so I just feel like the fact that 138 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 3: we know her very well through her social media and 139 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 3: through momern Wives, and even if you don't watch momon Wives, 140 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 3: but just like being a millennial who looks at Instagram, 141 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 3: you like know this girl enough that we shouldn't be 142 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 3: complaining during the season. I don't really know Taylor. I 143 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 3: feel like I don't really know Taylor. I'm glad that 144 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 3: we won't have to be doing that. 145 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: I think I'm excited about a season of pure authenticity, 146 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: like it or not. Right, She's polarizing because I think 147 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: she isn't going to be afraid to be her full 148 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 2: self at every moment, and we've missed that in seasons 149 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: for like for a long time now, where somebody comes 150 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 2: in knowing who they are, they've been through the Ringer 151 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: already they're not worried about the bad press or what 152 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: people will say or not say about them. She's just 153 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 2: gonna go at it in whatever way she wants, and 154 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 2: we're gonna either like it or not. But what happens 155 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 2: I think when we see seasons like that is people 156 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: step up to her kind of personality type and show 157 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 2: their most vulnerable sides of themselves, which is wonder full 158 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: for this show. That's what I'm excited about. I think 159 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 2: she is authentically herself. Even when she maybe is apologizing 160 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: for the mess she made, She's still going to be 161 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 2: herself and I love it. I think it's great. 162 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, she's unapologetic, like she's not going to care, and 163 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 3: I don't. 164 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 2: Know that about her grand Yeah, I mean I think 165 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 2: she does have that side. We talked to Kim about it. 166 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 2: She does have that side where she doesn't want to 167 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: just like cause chaos, and she feels that chaos that 168 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 2: she causes and I don't think she wants it, but 169 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: sometimes it just happens because of who she is.
