Growing up in Pueblo, Colorado, Taylor was raised in the Church of Latter-day Saints and relocated to Utah with her mother and stepfather when she was 16 years old.

In August 2023, Taylor pleaded guilty to aggravated assault stemming from an incident involving her boyfriend. The previous year, she gained significant attention after disclosing that she and her husband were "soft-swinging" with other couples in the Mormon community. This revelation led to the creation of the Hulu series, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, which premiered in 2024. Taylor had also completed filming for her season of The Bachelorette, but the show was cancelled by ABC after TMZ published footage of her throwing chairs at her ex-boyfriend during a 2023 incident.
