Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ken Urker were spotted at the same LSU game as her ex, Ryan Anderson, sparking immediate fan speculation about a possible run-in.

As fans know, just three months after being released from Chillicothe Correctional Center, Gypsy Rose moved out of her home with her then-husband Ryan and returned to her parents’ house. She has since filed for divorce from the special education teacher.

Shortly after, Gypsy Rose Blanchard rekindled her relationship with her former fiancé, Ken Urker, and the couple is now expecting their first child together.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard And Ken Urker Go To The LSU Game

On Saturday, the ex-convict and Ken decked out in purple and yellow gear to cheer on the Tigers at the LSU game. After seeing Gypsy's TikTok, fans realized that her ex-husband, Ryan, was also at the game, sparking fans to question if they ran into one another, but Gypsy shut those rumors down.

"We didn't run into him, it was so crowded. I didn't even know he was going until late last night after I got tickets to the game," she replied to a comment. "It was like....[eye emoji]."

It’s probably for the best that the three didn’t cross paths, as it could have been incredibly awkward—especially since Ryan has mocked Ken several times in his live TikTok videos.

Following her split from Ryan Anderson, Gypsy Rose Blanchard spoke candidly about the difficulties she encountered in the final stages of their relationship.

“I’d describe the Gypsy-Rose who went into prison as someone who was very lost and confused,” Gypsy told People Magazine. “Now she’s a little bit more wise, has a little bit more experience under her belt and is still very hopeful for the future.”

“I think that there is a sense of freedom of following your heart, following what you feel like is right for you," she continued. "In my marriage [to Ryan], I felt like a part of me was lost in it, and so I feel like I found that missing piece of myself that I always felt was lost and now reclaiming that back. I definitely feel a sense of belonging in that space.”

“It’s heartbreaking because no one gets married to get a divorce,” the ex-convict continued. “Processing those emotions has been hard.”

"I wrote him back and pretty soon we just started writing on a weekly basis," she told E! News in 2019. "We became fast friends. 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."

Although many have rallied around the former inmate, some have voiced concerns about her past, wondering if she is truly ready to take on the responsibilities of motherhood.

"I know that I'm not perfect. I know that I have made mistakes in the past."

"And I will probably make minor mistakes going forward, but at the same time, I do know right from wrong," she continued. "And learning from past mistakes is a growth that comes with time."
