Dakota Mortensen has spoken out on the situation for the first time. He gave his statement through a rep who talked to Entertainment Weekly about it.
“[Dakota’s] number one priority here is protecting [their 2-year-old son], Ever. He knew there was a possibility it could come out, but he was not going to be the one to proactively do that because he has always wanted a decent relationship with Taylor. It’s been really hard to achieve that, but he wants to co-parent well.”
