On August 8, Gypsy posted a photo of herself in a grocery store, holding an avocado and sharing, "Our little one is the size of an avocado! I love watching my baby bump grow."

She has been speaking out about her pregnancy ever since she was 11 weeks, telling her fans, "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 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," she added.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s estranged husband, Ryan Anderson, says there are still doubts about the paternity of her unborn child.

During a TikTok livestream on August 10, the 38-year-old special education teacher revealed to his followers that he’ll be undergoing a DNA test to determine if he or Ken Urker is the father, due to the fact that Gypsy's pregnancy occurred while they were still legally married under Louisiana law.

“I have to take a DNA test for court,” he said. “The way the timeline matches up — I don't think it's mine, but I don't know. The DNA test is going to prove it. Crazier things have happened. I just don't know. I have my thoughts and I have my opinions."

Louisiana attorney Beau Brock explained to People Magazine in July that the law is meant "to protect the child" and ensure that "the child has a father and a mother to provide for them."

What Will The Baby's Birth Certificate Say?

In July, a Louisiana attorney informed People that Ryan could be listed as the father on Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s baby’s birth certificate if the child is born before their divorce is finalized.

Under Louisiana law, if the mother is married to someone other than the biological father at conception or has been divorced for less than 300 days at birth, the husband or ex-husband is automatically presumed to be the father unless paternity is established otherwise.

For Ken Urker to be named on the birth certificate, Ryan would need to sign an affidavit recognizing Ken as the father. If Ryan declines, Ken would have to file a court motion, leading to a DNA test for all three parties to establish paternity.
