Gypsy Rose Blanchard Offers A Look Into Her Life As She Hits A Pregnancy Milestone

After a complicated past, Gypsy Rose Blanchard has revealed that she’s expecting her first child.

The ex-con, who served eight and a half years behind bars for her role in her mother’s murder, recently rekindled her romance with Ken Urker, her former fiancé before she married Ryan Anderson. As she navigates through her divorce from Ryan, the 33-year-old is diving into the next chapter of her life—becoming a mom.

Since the big news dropped, fans have been glued to Gypsy Rose Blanchard's every move. And now, as she gears up to welcome her baby girl, the ex-con just revealed her latest milestone.

Gypsy’s been vocal about her pregnancy since she hit 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 feud between the 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.

Now that Gypsy is five months pregnant, she is officially in the second trimester, which is often considered the most comfortable phase of pregnancy. Along with a pic of her latest read, Gypsy posted a snap on her feed, flaunting her growing baby bump.

She also revealed that her little girl is now the size of a bell pepper.

In her pregnancy announcement, Gypsy opened up, reflecting on her childhood journey and what it was like growing up with her mom, who’s believed to have had Munchausen by proxy.

"It's not about anything other than the tiny little life that's inside you," she said, holding back tears. "That you are now in charge of protecting and that little tiny life is a baby, a little tiny human that's yours and that you have to make sure you protect, you love, you take care of, and all of the things that I wish I could have had when I was little."

Gypsy took her pregnancy test with Kristy, her stepmom, by her side, who was the one to read the results. After the big news that she was expecting, the two immediately FaceTimed Gypsy’s stepdad.

"His face was priceless," Kristy told People Magazine. "He just had a big smile on his face. It's such a blessing and it's still unreal. They will be great parents and cherish every minute of it. When they hold their baby for the first time, they won't be able to imagine their life without their child. Everything just melts away, even when she gets a lot of hate about it."

Gypsy and Ken, who were once engaged while Gypsy was behind bars for her involvement in her mother Dee Dee’s murder, recently reignited their romance.

Shortly after the two broke off their engagement in 2019, Gypsy tied the knot with Ryan Anderson in 2022 while still in prison. Fast forward to December 2023, Gypsy was released, and just a few months later, in April, she filed for divorce from Ryan.

"I'm not going to say that I think that a baby will help a marriage or a relationship, because obviously there's the added stress. I know that realistically, there's going to be arguments too," Gypsy told People. "But [Ken and I] both come from divorced parents and one thing we absolutely agreed on from day one, even back when we were dating in 2017, is that when we have a child, we will stick together for the long haul."

"This is a forever thing because we don't want our child to grow up in a broken home," she added.

Gypsy, who is believed to be a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy at the hands of her mother, is now looking ahead to her future as a mom.

"I want to be kind, that my kids come to me for any kind of advice, just like my stepmother," she told the magazine. "I have seen how she has parented her children — and I think she's a kick-a-- mom. She's supportive and not overbearing. She lets her kids find their dreams while also being able to pick up the pieces when those dreams fall apart sometimes — so that's kind of the mantra I want to live by."
