Vanderpump Villa had its first crossover with The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives in Season 2, sparking drama that followed the cast back home and spilled into the next seasons. Most notably, it fed into wider fallout involving alleged affairs and sexual assault allegations, with seemingly no one in MomTok escaping the consequences of the chaos that unfolded.

And now, some Mormon besties are back at Lisa Vanderpump‘s villa, but it’s not the same faces as before, and it’s not even MomTok anymore. DadTok somehow wrangled an invite to Season 3. But what happens in the Vanderpump Villa doesn’t exactly stay there, as reports later surfaced that Dakota Mortensen had been seen frolicking with a mystery woman during his stay. We witnessed the fallout in TSLOMW Season 4, where his ex, Taylor Frankie Paul, was vocally unamused by the revelations.

Here’s everything we know about Dakota’s mysterious hookup on Vanderpump Villa Season 3.

Why was Dakota cut from Vanderpump Villa Season 3?

Dakota was at the villa alongside Jordan Ngatikaura, Chase McWhorter, Mason McWhorter, Zac Affleck, and Jacob Neeley.

Dakota and his ex, Taylor, have recently been at the center of significant controversy, following domestic violence allegations and ongoing custody disputes. As a result, Taylor’s season as the new Bachelorette was ultimately not aired, and Dakota’s storyline was also removed from Vanderpump Villa Season 3.

Lisa previously spoke out about the decision to reduce his screen time this season, telling People, “We don’t want to shine a spotlight on something that’s been so controversial when we have so much great content. Our show’s ready to go. Obviously, we don’t want to do anything extraordinarily significant at this stage in the game, but it’s ready to go.”

Who did Dakota hook up with on Vanderpump Villa?

During Vanderpump Villa, Dakota allegedly hooked up with one of the staff members during the trip, as reported back to MomTok by Jordan Ngatikaura in an attempt to get in his wife’s good graces.

Lisa seemingly confirmed this, as she commented that he had a “brief storyline of an interaction with somebody else, and we just scaled that back because of the controversy.”

There were 8 female staffers in Season 3: Alyssa, Keviah, Meredith, Gabriella, Adair, Hannah, Sher, and Sage. It seems unlikely that one of them will admit to the hookup publicly, especially given the controversy now surrounding Dakota.

We can likely rule out Hannah, especially given her ongoing drama with ex Marciano Brunette, who also clashes with Jordan over his emotional affair with Jessi. She appears far more focused on unresolved drama with her ex than on pursuing anything new.

As for the mystery woman, Reddit rumors have pointed to Lexi from Love Overboard. However, this remains completely unconfirmed by either party, and notably, she isn’t even working on Vanderpump Villa this season.

Maybe the previous edit will leak, but until then, we’ll have to wait and see…
