Gypsy-Rose Blanchard has babies on the brain, her husband Ryan Anderson revealed at a press conference Tuesday.
Blanchard and Anderson, who tied the knot in 2022, appeared virtually at a panel for Lifetime's docuseries "The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard" that debuted last week. The six-part docuseries will re-air on the network in full on Friday (6 p.m.-midnight EDT/PDT) and Sunday (10 a.m.-4 p.m. EDT/PDT).
Anderson said that since his wife's release, he's enjoyed doing the typical married activities. On Monday, the pair went grocery shopping. "I wanted Gypsy to feel free to get whatever she wanted," he said before sharing one purchase in a moment of candor that shocked Blanchard.
“I'm going to tell them," Anderson warned. "You bought baby clothes for a future baby, and I was like, 'We're not there yet. Slow down.' "
"Why did you tell them that?" Blanchard asked before justifying the premature purchase. "It was so cute. I had to get the outfit for just in case, later down the road."
But Anderson reiterated a baby didn't fit in his short-term plans. "When we walked through that section, I was like, 'Keep walking. Keep walking. We're not there yet.' "
The prison romanceof Gypsy-Rose Blanchard and her husband, and why they almost separated
The couple got married in a modest ceremony at Missouri's Chillicothe Correctional Center where Blanchard was serving a 10-year sentence for her role in the death of her mother, Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard who presented to medical professionals and the public that her daughter battled several ailments, including cancer. On June 9, 2015, Dee Dee was stabbed to death by her daughter's boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, in their Springfield home.
Blanchard's prison time ended on Dec. 28, 2023, after she served 85% of her time. Godejohn, who carried out the killing at Blanchard’s request, is serving life without the possibility of parole.
Gypsy-Rose Blanchard on traveling, releasing new e-book
In addition to motherhood, Blanchard says she hopes to travel when she's off of probation, eyeing Rome and Switzerland specifically, and "everywhere" generally.
She feels her life currently is "way too hectic" for a day job but entertains potentially being a hair or makeup stylist or working in retail. The release of her e-book, out now, makes Blanchard an author. "Released: Conversations on the Eve of Freedom," co-written with docuseries executive producer Melissa Moore and author Michele Matrisciani, affords Blanchard space to reflect.
"It's deeply personal," she says. "It was a format to where I could just fully be myself and be open about whatever I wanted to talk about and what I wanted to share with readers."
Blanchard looks forward to reinventing herself, now that she's free, which includes learning how to cook and being a good wife.
"The prison Gypsy is over," she says. "Now this is the new Gypsy and let's form this new identity for me and see what I can do, see the power of my voice. I've already used the power to share my story for myself. Let's see if I can share, maybe, other people's stories and give them a voice."
Gypsy Rose Blanchardis free from prison. Now she's everywhere.
