Gypsy Rose Blanchard may be getting a bit too personal with fans due to her latest comments regarding her pregnancy.

Earlier this week, the ex-convict, who spent the past eight and a half years behind bars before being released on parole in December, announced she is expecting her first child with her boyfriend (and former fiancé) Ken Urker.

This news comes just months after she announced her marriage separation from Ryan Anderson, a special education teacher whom she married while behind bars.

As fans continue to play detective, many claim the baby could be Ryan Anderson's, not Ken Urker's, but Gypsy Rose Blanchard is now setting the record straight.

Gypsy Rose Claps Back At Rumors That Ryan Is The Father

With such a short time between when Gypsy left Ryan and began dating Ken, some call BS on who her baby's father is. However, the 32-year-old has had enough, as she left a recent comment on a social media video detailing her love life.

"Left Ryan March 23rd, had a period April 17th, made love with Ken and only him April 27, 28, 29, 30, and conceived on May 24th," she said. "Positive test on May 24th. KEN IS THE FATHER."

Gypsy stood by those claims in a recent "Good Morning America" interview, saying, "It was mid-March when I left Ryan. So, this is absolutely 100% Ken's baby. There was never any question of paternity.”

Ken has also addressed these rumors in a recent live TikTok video, saying, "There's no doubt I am the father" and "No, Ryan is not the father; I know for a fact I am the father."

Gypsy Rose Blanchard Has A Bun In The Oven

On July 9, Gypsy shared a video on her YouTube page, announcing the baby bombshell news.

"I’m happy to announce that I am 11 weeks pregnant. Ken and I are expecting our very first child come January 2025," the 32-year-old, who is believed to be a victim of Munchausen by proxy, said. "You know it's still going to be a long journey ahead, but I'm up for it. I feel a shift in myself."

"When I found out that I was pregnant, none of anything else mattered; the drama on social media, the feud between creators and me, and all of that drama, it just all faded. It didn't matter anymore," she later added. "All that matters is that I'm healthy, the baby is healthy, and the relationship with Ken is healthy."

Days after announcing her pregnancy to the world, Gypsy Rose spoke to People Magazine about her childhood and what it means to start a family, especially since her mother told her she "was never going to get married, raise a family, have kids, or do any of that."

"So, to be here, standing on my own two feet and expecting my first baby, that's something I've reached as an achievement and a personal goal," she continued. "I thank God every day that I am now having this second chance at life with a kid of my own."

"The way my mother parented me is definitely not the way I'm going to be. We always say for the next generation, we want to be better than we were raised," the 32-year-old mom-to-be said. "And so, for me, I think that couldn't be any more truthful."

Not only have Ken and Gypsy narrowed down baby names, but they have also created a lavish baby registry and begun planning a baby shower.

"You know it's still going to be a long journey ahead, but I'm up for it. I feel a shift in myself," Gypsy said in her YouTube video released earlier this week. "When I found out that I was pregnant, none of anything else mattered; the drama on social media, the few between creator and me, and all of that drama, it just all faded. It didn't matter anymore. All that matters is that I'm healthy, the baby is healthy, and the relationship with Ken is healthy."

“All the things that I wanted in a mother, I want to give to this baby," she continued. "And I just want to be a good mother for my child. I want to be everything my mother wasn't.”

Dee Dee Blanchard Kept Gypsy Rose From 'Milestones'

The 32-year-old is suspected to be a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a mental health disorder in which a caregiver, in this case, Gypsy's mom, invents or causes illness in someone under their care, in this case, Gypsy, to garner sympathy or attention.

“My mother did not want to see me meet those milestones that every child should have, like going on a first date, a prom, you know, a bike ride. All of those little milestone moments that make life worth living, I didn't get to have that,” she said in a "Good Morning America" interview on Friday.

“And so I want my child to have all of the things that he or she could ever want in life," Gypsy added.
