Here’s why Gypsy Rose Blanchard parted ways with husband Ryan Anderson

Famed Munchausen by proxy victim, Gypsy Rose Blanchard has recently separated from her husband, Ryan Anderson, amid fears of escalating domestic tension.
According to Nadiya Vizier, a close friend of Blanchard, a heated argument between the couple led Blanchard to fear for her safety. “Gypsy said that she was afraid he was going to hit her,” Vizier revealed to People magazine. Although Anderson did not become physically violent, still the incident triggered Blanchard’s traumatic memories of past abuse by her mother.
The altercation reportedly occurred at their Lake Charles residence. Vizier described Anderson’s behaviour as domineering, likening Blanchard’s experience to being “on a leash.” The emotional strain of feeling trapped in her home became unbearable for Blanchard, prompting her to leave.

Blanchard publicly announced the separation on March 28 via a private Facebook post, following the deactivation of her widely followed social media profiles. “Unfortunately my husband and I are going through a separation and I moved in with my parents home down the bayou,” she stated, while expressing a need for self-discovery and introspection.
The courtship started while Blanchard was serving time in prison and got married to the woman in a wedding held in July 2022 within the prison. Blanchard spent time behind bars for the murder of her innocent mother who was victimized by the Munchausen syndrome and who had brought about daily distress and torment on her daughter. He was paroled and left in December 2023, married Anderson only for three months.
At that point in time, Blanchard renewed her relationship with her former fiancee, a tattoo artist, Ken Urker. The two appear to be embraced together, showing engagement and even getting similar tattoos on their bodies.

Amidst swirling rumours, Vizier clarified, “I want people to know she didn’t leave Ryan for Ken. She left him because she wasn’t happy anymore.”
Bobby Pitre, Blanchard’s cousin, also spoke to the media, suggesting that Blanchard’s feelings for Urker never faded. “She’s obviously in love with the first guy, Ken. You know? That’s who she’s been hanging out with. She obviously loves him,” Pitre remarked.
