Gypsy Rose Blanchard Attends Festival With Ex Ken Urker Weeks After Separating From Ryan Anderson

Just weeks after separating from Ryan Anderson, Gypsy Rose Blanchard has been spotted hanging out with her ex-fiance, Ken Urker, yet again.

The ex-convict announced she and Ryan were going their separate ways less than three months after Gypsy was released from prison on parole. The two wed in a prison ceremony in July 2022.

Before she married Ryan Anderson, she was linked with Ken, who first reached out to her after he watched the 2017 HBO documentary, 'Mommy Dead & Dearest.'

Days after publicly announcing her separation from Ryan, she got a matching Husky dog tattoo with Ken, which, according to her cousin, is “a symbol for their strong bond."

The two were then spotted taking a grocery store run hand-in-hand. Despite their reconnection, Ken and Ken's mom claim they are just friends and are not back together.

However, the two seemed to get pretty cozy as they attended the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival with Gypsy's family.

According to PEOPLE, Ken and Gypsy attended the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, along with her father Rod Blanchard, and stepmother Kristy Blanchard.

In one photo, Gypsy, Rod, and Kristy are sitting in lawn chairs at the festival, seemingly enjoying quality time together. In another picture, Ken and Gypsy were seen standing next to each other, interlocking their arms.

Ken and Gypsy first linked after he wrote her a “letter of support” after watching the 'Mommy Dead & Dearest' documentary. “We became fast friends,” Gypsy told the E! News of her relationship with Ken in 2019. “It was pretty soon after that, that we started talking on the phone. We would spend hours on the phone. I talked to him like I had known him my whole life, and vice versa.”

The two got engaged in October 2018, something that Gypsy and Ken "had discussed for a while, so it wasn't out of the blue."

"We bounced around the idea, we have a pretty solid thing going, and we're pretty sure this is what we want," Gypsy told the outlet. Ken eventually ended the relationship, leaving Gypsy "devastated."

"I have always had difficulty letting go of my ex-fiance, Ken," Gypsy recently confessed. "We were so connected at one time that, like, he was a soulmate, and I think it started to wear on Ken the amount of time that I had to do in prison and the stress of who I am as Gypsy Blanchard."

Gypsy added, "He ended the relationship. It was devastating to me."

Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ryan Anderson married in prison in July 2022, a year and a half before Gypsy was released from prison on parole.

Less than three months later, Gypsy Rose announced she and Ryan had gone their separate ways.

“People have been asking what is going on in my life. Unfortunately, my husband and I are going through a separation, and I moved in with my parents’ home down the bayou,” Gypsy Rose wrote in a statement last month. “I have the support of my family and friends to help guide me through this. I am learning to listen to my heart."

She added, "Right now, I need time to let myself find… who I am.”

Shortly after announcing their separation, Gypsy filed for divorce from Ryan. According to the filing, the official separation date is March 25, and they have been living apart ever since.

Gypsy requests that the court order Ryan to pay her spousal support “because the Petitioner is in need and the Defendant has the ability to pay, and she is not at fault in the dissolution of the marriage.”

The docs also state that Ryan “is not entitled to final spousal support as he is at fault in the dissolution of the marriage." There are no further details about the reasons for the split.

In her filing, Gypsy Rose sought a restraining order, which the court granted.
