Pregnant Gypsy Rose Blanchard Addresses "Question of Paternity” After Ryan Anderson Divorce

Pregnant Gypsy Rose Blanchard just killed these rumors.
After the 32-year-old announced she’s expecting with boyfriend Ken Urker, Gypsy set the record straight that he is indeed the father of her baby—and not her estranged husband Ryan Anderson, who she split from earlier this year.
“It was mid-March when I left Ryan,” she explained during a July 12 appearance on Good Morning America. “So, this is absolutely 100 percent Ken's baby. There was never any question of paternity.” (ICYMI, she reunited with Ken in April.)
Though she’s move on from Ryan—who she married in 2022 while serving a prison sentence for the second-degree murder of mom Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard—the Life After Lockup star doesn’t wish him ill.
“I'm hoping that he is okay,” she said. “And I wish him the best emotionally.”
Not that she’s giving him too much thought. “Right now, I have not even had a moment to stop and think about anybody else except for, ‘Am I taking my prenatals in the morning? Am I drinking enough water?’” Gypsy continued. “I have so much to focus on, making sure that I'm healthy for this baby.”
On July 9, Gypsy announced she and Ken—who called off their previous engagement in 2019—are expecting.
“This was not planned at all, it was completely unexpected,” Gypsy, due in January 2025, said in a YouTube video. “We're both very excited to take on this new journey of parenthood.”
Now, to the best of her ability, she’s preparing for what’s to come.
“I know that there are going to be people that feel like I'm not ready to be a mother,” Gypsy acknowledged. “I just don't know if anyone is ready to be a mother. I don't know anyone who's like, 'Okay, I'm ready I'm doing this.' So I feel a shift in myself."
So rather than listen to any outside noise, Gypsy is focusing on herself.
“There’s this tiny little life that is inside of you and that little tiny life is a baby, a little tiny human that’s yours and that you have to make sure you protect, you love, you take care of, and all of the things that I wished I could’ve had when I was little,” she explained. “Here I am getting emotional. I’m sorry. All the things that I wanted in a mother, I’m going to give to this baby.”

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard told E! News she knew Ken Urker was the one "probably the day I met him back in 2017."
At the time she was serving a 10-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to second-degree murder for her role in her mom Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard's 2015 death.
The couple, who got engaged in 2018, even managed to create a festive atmosphere while Gypsy was incarcerated.
They split up in 2019 but, as Gypsy noted, fate would come back to find them...
Following Gypsy Rose's decision to divorce teacher Ryan Anderson after less than two years of marriage, she and Ken reunited in the spring of 2024.
"We are together and in a wonderful place in our relationship," she told TMZ on April 30. "We know it is going to be a long road ahead but are excited for the future."
Cloudy skies couldn't put a damper on the rekindled couple's mood.
Gypsy likes it when this Ken is all up in his feelings.
Whatever he said had Gypsy beaming.
Smiling for the camera.
Gypsy Rose shared a collage of some of her and Ken's most adorable moments a few weeks before revealing she's pregnant with their first child together.
She noted that their baby is due in January 2025.
