Gypsy Rose Blanchard shared a video showing off her new boyfriend, Ken Urker, but social media users can't help but bash the ex-convict.

As The Blast reported, Gypsy spent the last eight and a half years in prison for her involvement in her mother's murder. After getting out on parole, the world has been divided on whether to support her as she is considered to be a victim of Munchausen By Proxy.

While a majority are rooting for the 32-year-old, hoping she has a comeback, others continue to heckle Gypsy, calling her a "murderer" and a "killer."

Gypsy's mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, forced her to undergo numerous medical procedures and surgeries, convincing everyone, including doctors, that Gypsy suffered from a range of health issues such as leukemia and muscular dystrophy.

It was later revealed that Gypsy was not as sick as her mother had made it seem, and desperate to escape Dee Dee's control, she conspired to murder her with the assistance of her then-boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, whom she had met online.

She pled guilty and was sentenced to ten years in prison. In December 2023, she was released on parole.

Weeks after announcing her separation from Ryan Anderson, the 32-year-old confirmed she was back together with her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker, whom she dated while serving her prison sentence.

"True love," she captioned a photo of Ken using Luke Combs's hit single, 'Forever After All.'

"You guys are too cute together! Keep on shining, Gypsy Rose," one user commented. "From one Louisianian to another...you absolutely deserve TRUE love! I'm so happy you found it!" another said.

Others, however, slammed Gypsy and her new relationship, calling Ken her "next victim."

"Is this your next victim?" one user wrote as another advised Ken to "sleep with one eye open."

Another expressed, "What’s up, Ken?? Nice to see you alive!!" Gypsy was unhappy about that comment as she responded, "What’s wrong with you?"

One user commented on the song choice made by Gypsy. "That’s the same song you posted for you and Ryan? I’m happy for you, but come on, pick something that isn’t the same?"

"Didn't you play the same song for Ryan back on March the 3. Girl, stop it. You're wild."

After confirming that she and Ken were back together, she told PEOPLE Magazine she was in love.

"Ken and I reconnected as friends. It wasn't like, jump out of a marriage and then let me meet up with you, and boom, we're in a relationship," she said. "We had kept a friendship for the longest time. He was in a relationship. I was with Ryan, and so we were living different lives with respect to our partners, a 'wish you the best' type of thing."

"It wasn't until I knew that my marriage was over that I was like, 'I would like to see you and let's hang out because we never got to hang out before when I was in prison'," she added.

While she was going through her separation from Ryan, she said "Ken was that support for me when going through this emotional hardship of crying and then being okay and then crying. Then I let myself open up to the feelings that I've always had for Ken. Those feelings just don't die."

"I would say that Ken is my first love because that's when I honestly felt like a mature love. It wasn't based off of a fantasy," she added. "It was actually based on a connection that two people have for each other."
