Gypsy Rose Blanchard Files for Divorce from Ryan Anderson
Gypsy Rose Blanchard, 32, announced her split with Ryan Anderson last month. Now, she has filed for divorce.
TMZ reports Gypsy filed the papers on Monday.
Back on March 29, Blanchard announced the split news on her private Facebook account. According to People magazine, she wrote, "People have been asking what is going on in my life. Unfortunately my husband and I are going through a separation and I moved in with my parents home down the bayou. I have the support of my family and friends to help guide me through this. I am learning to listen to my heart. Right now I need time to let myself find… who I am.”
The news came three months after her release from Chillicothe Correctional Center in Missouri. Gypsy and Ryan tied the knot in July 2022, while she was still behind bars.
Over the weekend, Anderson opened up to DailyMail.com about the split, saying, "For me, it just came out of the blue.”
After the separation news, Gypsy began spending time with her ex-fiancé Ken Urker, but Ryan says, “I had no idea she still had such strong feelings for him."

Gypsy served more than eight years for her involvement in the murder of her mother. In 2015, Gypsy’s then boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn stabbed Dee Dee Blanchard to death. It was a crime plotted by Gypsy after years of abuse at the hands of her mother, who was believed to have suffered from Munchausen syndrome by proxy.
