Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who gained notoriety for her involvement in the murder of her mother, Claudine “Dee Dee” Blanchard, was perplexed by the remarks made by Sunny Hostin on The View regarding her rekindled relationship with Ken Urker. Hostin expressed confusion about the concept of falling in love with someone while they are behind bars, stating that she does not understand “prison love.” Gypsy Rose, who served time for the murder of her mother, questioned why Hostin had changed her previously supportive tune.
Blanchard and Urker initially got engaged in 2018 but called off their engagement the following year. They connected through a prison pen pal program while Gypsy Rose was serving her sentence for her role in her mother’s murder. Hostin expressed her disbelief at how someone could fall in love with a person who had killed a loved one, questioning the fascination with Gypsy Rose. It was revealed that after her split with Urker, Gypsy Rose married Ryan Scott Anderson while still incarcerated, but filed for divorce four months after her release in December 2023.
In a public statement, Gypsy Rose encouraged others in similar situations to seek alternative solutions to their problems, emphasizing that she had taken the wrong path. After her divorce from Anderson, Gypsy Rose rekindled her relationship with Urker and they got matching tattoos to symbolize their reconnection. Gypsy Rose expressed her belief that their love for each other was undeniable and that they were excited for the future. She acknowledged that there would be challenges ahead but was hopeful about the direction their relationship was taking.
Despite the challenges and controversies surrounding her love life, Gypsy Rose Blanchard remains committed to her relationship with Ken Urker. After a tumultuous past that included serving time in prison for her role in her mother’s murder, Gypsy Rose seems determined to move forward and embrace the future with optimism. Her tumultuous journey has been met with judgment and criticism, particularly from Sunny Hostin on The View, but Gypsy Rose remains focused on building a new beginning with Urker. Their love story, while unconventional and controversial, continues to evolve, with both partners expressing their commitment to each other and their optimism for the future.
