Gypsy Rose Blanchard issues strongly-worded statement after rare family reunion

Gypsy Rose Blanchard asked fans to back off after her family reunion was "invaded."

She explained in a statement on TikTok that she was enjoying time at the Blanchard family reunion, starting off on a positive note before the story went sour. "It was wonderful to meet everyone and learn about our family history. We spent the weekend at the lake and enjoying our time together," she wrote.

The documentary subject went on to explain that people were interupting the vent, "wanting to invade our space and privacy." She noted that they were "circling our campsite with cameras and phone who want selfies or photo ops."

The reality star added: "As much as I appreciate the support of the locals, I only ask to keep in mind that we have extended family members who do not wish to be a part of the media world, some of them being minors. I would ask for people to be more conscious and considerate when approaching or interacting with me in public, especially in such situations surrounding family events. Thank you for your time."

Gypsy locked down her comment section, avoiding stirring any fan conversation on the topic. She's the second of major celebrities to come forward recently, voicing concern over fan boundaries. Pop sensation Chappell Roan recently spurred anger from fans after she made a similar statement online.

She said in a TikTok video clip: "I don’t care that abuse and harassment, stalking, whatever, is a normal thing to do to people who are famous or a little famous. I don’t care that it’s normal. I don’t care that this crazy type of behavior comes along with the job, [or] the career field I’ve chosen. That does not make it OK. That doesn’t make it normal."

Chappell added: "That doesn’t mean I want it. Doesn’t mean that I like it. I don’t want whatever the f--- you think you’re supposed to be entitled to whenever you see a celebrity. I don't give a f--- if you think it’s selfish of me to say no for a photo or for your time, or for a hug."
