Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ken Urker‘s relationship received a lot of backlash last year. The couple was criticized for getting together so fast following Blanchard’s breakup with Ryan Anderson. The reality star’s pregnancy only further complicated matters as fans questioned the identity of her baby’s father. In the latest episode of Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up, Blanchard admitted she may have rushed things with Urker. However, she said she just couldn’t resist him.
Learning From Her Mistakes
Gypsy Rose Blanchard got real about rekindling her relationship with her former fiancé in a conversation with her sister, Mia. “When we reconnected, it was the hormones,” Blanchard said, laughing. “The hormones made me move so fast.”
While the ex-con added she doesn’t regret being with Urker, she does wish she could have handled things differently with Anderson. After taking the time to reflect on their messy breakup, Blanchard said she can now “recognize” how much she probably “hurt” her ex-husband.
Due to her mistakes, Blanchard is determined to make smarter decisions with Urker moving forward. For example, she wonders if they should wait for marriage. After all, she has so much on her plate already. At the time of filming, Blanchard was busy planning the arrival of her and Urker’s baby. She was also close to finalizing her divorce with Anderson. On top of that, she was still getting used to her new life outside of prison. Since she has so much to deal with, Blanchard thinks the couple could save the marriage talks for later. “The last thing I want to do is just, again, make another hasty decision,” she said.
Will Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ken Urker Ever Get Married?
Blanchard said Urker has expressed interest in her being his wife “someday.” However, he hasn’t hinted at any plans to propose anytime soon. The reality star thinks that could change once the couple has less baggage. After Blanchard’s divorce is finalized, she says she and Urker will move on to “unknown territory,” admitting that “anything can happen.” Whether that includes marriage is to be determined, but Blanchard is hopeful they’ll have a happy ending. After all, she’s “loved” Urker for seven years.
Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ken Urker first met while she was in prison in 2017. They fell in love and got engaged in October 2018 but then went their separate ways the following year. Blanchard then moved on with Ryan Anderson, whom she wed in July 2022. Following her prison release in December 2023, the couple was only together for three months. Blanchard filed for divorce from her husband in April 2024. That same month, she had reconciled with Urker. After announcing her pregnancy in July, Blanchard gave birth to her and Urker’s first child in December. The ex-con has since shared a glimpse of her life as a mother on social media.
