Blanchard, meanwhile, announced on Tuesday, July 9, that she is expecting her first baby with Urker, 31.

“I know the rumors have been flying around for quite some time now, and I’m happy to announce that I am 11 weeks pregnant,” she said in a YouTube video . “Ken and I are expecting our very first child come January 2025.”

According to Blanchard, she and Urker had not “planned” to expand their family but are “both very excited” for the new chapter.

Blanchard met both Anderson and Urker while she was incarcerated. She previously served time for the murder of her mother, Clauddine “Dee Dee" Blanchard . Gypsy Rose and then-boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn were arrested in 2015 after Dee Dee was found dead of multiple stab wounds. She was 48.

Gypsy Rose and Godejohn, now 34, admitted to planning to murder Dee Dee, who allegedly abused Gypsy Rose throughout her childhood by claiming her daughter had fake illnesses. Gypsy Rose pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 2016 and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. While Godejohn was given a life sentence, Gypsy Rose was granted parole in September 2023 and released in December 2023.

During her prison sentence, she struck up a romance with Urker and got engaged. After the pair called off their engagement, Gypsy Rose moved on with Anderson. They wed in 2022 before separating shortly after her release from prison. Gypsy Rose has since asserted that she did not leave Anderson in order to reunite with Urker.

“It was an insecurity that was there for a very long time,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in May. “I called Ken two weeks before I got married. Ken has consistently been brought up in a way that I can never let go of my feelings, but I put them on the back burner to do what was best for my marriage.”

Gypsy Rose added, “Having that be a point of contention has been a thread throughout, but I didn’t leave Ryan for Ken. That was just sort of a realization [of], ‘Hey, we still love each other after the fact.’”

At the time, Gypsy Rose further told Us that she couldn’t wait to become a parent one day.

“I think that I’m going to be a good mother,” Gypsy Rose said. “I think Ken would be a wonderful father, and so we’ll see what the future holds for us.”
