Gypsy Rose Blanchard Celebrates Freedom With TikTok Live After Officially Getting Off Parole

On June 24, 2025, Gypsy Rose Blanchard, now 33, officially completes her parole that began following her release from prison on December 28, 2023, after serving eight years of a 10-year sentence.

While on parole, Blanchard navigated strict limitations, including the fact that she couldn’t live with her boyfriend, Ken Urker, or their daughter Aurora, born December 28, 2024. The rules compelled her to reside with her parents in Louisiana until today.

Despite the challenges, Gypsy Rose Blanchard rebuilt her life, ending her marriage to Ryan Scott Anderson, reuniting with Urker, and embracing motherhood.

When speaking in her recent TikTok chat, the 33-year-old opened up about her baby girl, Aurora, whom she shares with fiancé Ken Urker.

“She’s already outgrown so many of her onesies,” Gypsy said with a laugh. “We’re constantly having to buy new ones. Just buying as we go!”

And like any mom navigating the milestones, Gypsy revealed that they’ve just started introducing baby food into Aurora’s routine.

“We just started her on purees,” she shared, proudly marking the next chapter in her daughter’s development.

While reflecting on her new normal, Gypsy couldn’t help but gush about one unexpected bonus of Zoom interviews.

“The great thing about Zoom is you can be in pajama pants and only wear a nice top,” she joked. “That way when the interview is over, the fancy top comes off and the pajama shirt comes on, secret of the entertainment world!”

In fact, that comfort-first mindset has inspired a dream career. “I’d love to have a job as a voice actor,” she added. “They get to do their jobs in their pajamas, how awesome is that?”

While she didn't address her parole ending, fans couldn't help but congratulate the 33-year-old in the comments section.

"So happy for you!" one wrote.

"Freedom!!" another commented as a third chimed in, "How does it feel officially being free?"

Before her name made headlines across the nation, Gypsy Rose Blanchard was a child trapped in one of the most horrifying and complex cases of abuse in modern history.

Her early life, manipulated by her mother Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard, was built on a web of lies, fabricated illnesses, and medical exploitation that would eventually lead to murder and years behind bars.

From the moment Gypsy was born in 1991, Dee Dee began to paint a portrait of her daughter as severely ill. She claimed Gypsy suffered from a host of conditions, including leukemia, muscular dystrophy, epilepsy, asthma, developmental delays, and more. Dee Dee insisted Gypsy used a wheelchair, needed a feeding tube, and required countless medications and surgeries, none of which were medically necessary.

In reality, Gypsy was healthy.

The extreme manipulation was later diagnosed as a case of Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a mental disorder where a caregiver fakes or induces illness in someone under their care to gain attention or sympathy.

Dee Dee kept Gypsy homeschooled and isolated, cutting her off from the outside world and any chance of independence. Even her true age was hidden; Dee Dee regularly claimed Gypsy was years younger than she really was, further enabling the illusion of a sick, dependent child.

Their story attracted widespread attention and sympathy.

The mother-daughter duo received free trips to Disney World through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, a donated home from Habitat for Humanity, and financial support from charities and individuals who believed they were helping a terminally ill child and her devoted caretaker.

But behind closed doors, Gypsy’s life was anything but magical.

As she grew older, Gypsy began to question the reality her mother had constructed. She secretly accessed the internet and began forming online relationships, eventually connecting with Nicholas Godejohn. The two started a romantic relationship and, in 2015, conspired to kill Dee Dee in an attempt to escape the years of control and abuse.

The murder shocked the nation and pulled back the curtain on what had really been happening in the Blanchard home. Gypsy was arrested and later pled guilty to second-degree murder.

She was sentenced to 10 years in prison and served eight before being released on parole in December 2023.
