Gypsy Rose Blanchard has no intention of reconciling with her estranged husband, Ryan Anderson, despite her previous claims about their everlasting love.
Fans may recall the former convict shut down criticisms about her marriage by proudly declaring her then-beau's "D is fire" and that nothing could come between them.
Well, she has officially changed her tune to the single ladies' anthem regardless of her ex's interest in working things out.

Sources close to Blanchard recently shared her feelings about a possible reconciliation with her ex, claiming she is not interested in giving her marriage a second chance. They note that her love for freedom outweighs whatever feelings she has for Anderson.
The 32-year-old was a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy and spent seven years in prison for the second-degree murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard.
During her time behind bars, she married Anderson and spent three months with him following her release in January.
Simply put, insiders claim Blanchard had never tasted freedom until her separation from Anderson. Their split marks the first time since her release that she doesn't have to report her whereabouts to anyone — excluding her parole officer.
While the media personality enjoys her singledom, sources note her estranged husband isn't loving their separation. Anderson, per TMZ, allegedly texted Blanchard to express his desire to work things out, but she wasn't on the same page.
Blanchard Is Prioritizing Girls' Nights Over Dating
According to sources, not only is Blanchard disinterested in reconciling with her estranged husband, but she is also not ready to date anyone else. They stress that she prioritizes girls' nights over dating and won't be found on any dating apps in the foreseeable future.
As for Anderson's plea for reconciliation, Blanchard, according to sources, feels he is only focused on his pain from their separation instead of her feelings. She believes if he puts himself in her shoes, he will understand that their breakup is what's best for her.
The same rule applies to her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker, whom she reunited with following her separation from Anderson. Insiders stress that the duo have always had a connection and will continue to spend quality time together.
The pair reportedly plan to attend Jazz Fest in NOLA with Blanchard's family at the end of this month. However, they remain adamant that there is nothing romantic between them—a claim that matches the former convict's single ladies theme.
The Estranged Couple Are No Longer Shooting Scenes Together
Days earlier, The Blast reported that Anderson and Blanchard's romance was officially over on and off camera. The pair were no longer shooting scenes together for the reality TV series, "Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up."
Production sources for the show explained that the second season would only focus on Blanchard's life, which Anderson was no longer a part of. With that in mind, there was no reason to feature him in the new series.
Although they weren't filmed together, insiders noted cameras captured their fallout. This appeared to be the only scene featuring the pair, as they no longer live together and are moving in different directions.
The call to remove Anderson from the show reportedly came from producers, who gave him a one-on-one shoot to wrap up his part in the series. The production for the reality TV show is still ongoing, but sources noted it will soon be concluded.
The Former Couple Had An Explosive Fight Before Their Separation
The Blast previously shared that Blanchard and Anderson separated on heated terms over the latter's alleged food-hoarding tendencies. This issue resonated deeply with the former convict as it reminded her of her late mother.
Unfortunately, the tension about Anderson's hoarding reached a boiling point when Blanchard emptied a refrigerator filled with expired food. The move didn't sit well with her estranged husband, who allegedly blew up, leading to the explosive fight.
Sources claimed Blanchard was shaken and alarmed by Anderson's intense reaction to the emptied refrigerator, a narrative her close pal, Nadiya Vizier, supported in her claims about the incident.
Gypsy Rose Blanchard Allegedly Locked Herself In The Bathroom Following The Fight
According to Blanchard's friend, she was so terrified by Anderson's temper that she sought refuge in the bathroom. "He got in her face and screamed. Gypsy said that she was afraid he was going to hit her," Vizier recounted, adding:
"He didn't — but that happened in the past with her mother. So, her first instinct was to tighten up and be prepared. But she got to safety and called her lawyer, too."
The morning after the fight, Blanchard wasted no time packing her bags and left her matrimonial home for her father's place in Cut Off, Louisiana. She also filed a temporary restraining order against Anderson on April 11.
