Blachard previously opened up to PEOPLE about witnessing Urker step into the role of father in March, noting the beauty of their family of three growing together. 'It's adorable. It really is,' Blanchard said. 'It's one of those heart-touching moments because it's like, this is new for the both of us, but also Ken was young when we met, and so it's adorable and really heartwarming to see him grow and mature through this process.' 'I've learned that he is a lot more patient than I gave him credit for,' she continued. 'So it's been wonderful to watch him grow as a person through the last year, but also step into this new mature role.'

'I love her to death, and every day I get to see her grow more and more in all these little ways,' he told PEOPLE. 'Her eyes opening wider as the weeks go on, and her starting to develop a little bit of a social smile now, and just watching her get bigger.'

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard breaks down in tears over 'sacred' betrayal
Gypsy-Rose Blanchard broke down in tears and declared that she wanted to finally end the 'reputation' war between herself and ex-husband Ryan Scott Anderson - five months after their divorce was finalized. The 33-year-old ex-con and the 38-year-old special education teacher's 20-month marriage effectively ended in March 2024 when she surreptitiously rekindled her on/off romance with fiancé Ken Urker. Gypsy-Rose immediately got pregnant with now four-month old daughter Aurora Raina Urker four months following her release from the Chillicothe Correctional Center for second-degree murder. On Tuesday, Blanchard was outraged over Ryan posting a screengrab of their January 14th text exchange where she admitted to feeling 'lost, like, I don't know what is real anymore' during her first weeks post-partum. Anderson captioned his TikTok from last Saturday: 'I speak the truth... always have. Only be real.' 'Whenever you put out text messages between you and I that I think are sacred. That should, in my opinion, be sacred between us. And when I mean sacred, I mean that, there are very few people I trust in this world. And I have always counted you as one of them,' the Life After Lock Up star said in a 10-minute TikTok video. 'Seeing that text message that you released for what? For what?! Because you wanted to show that you were the truth-teller on TikTok? Well, that hurt my trust.' This, after Gypsy-Rose fully admitted she had 'put out personal information of yours that I knew that you didn't want out there' that was 'below the belt and [went] too far.' 'I'm sorry. I truly am sorry, even if you get me many other jabs, I won't put out anything else about you,' Blanchard promised. 'I'm not going to try to hurt you. I know that in your heart that you care about me. And I'm just sorry. I'm sorry that you fell in love with a piece of s*** like me.' The My Time to Stand co-author also admitted it must 'be really hard' for Ryan watching her and Ken's baby bliss on her Lifetime reality show, but she's 'just tired of this war and I want it to end.' 'I hate that we keep doing this back and forth, but we're not trying to hurt each other, we're trying to hurt each other's reputations,' Gypsy-Rose explained. 'I can't keep texting you. I can't keep talking to you. I have a whole family. I'm in a committed relationship. I have a daughter with this man. We can't be friends. Do you understand what position I'm in? As long as I keep talking to you, you feel some sort of connection. But that can't be. We can't do that. We're not at that space.' Blanchard continued: 'I want you to be happy. I want you to move on. I want you to move on with someone that's going to make you happy, that's going to love you like you should be loved. And I know that it's hard because I get it. I did you wrong and I'm sorry for that.' The Louisiana native blissfully recalled a time when Anderson didn't even care about social media: 'It was never about the public back then. And it's so hard to see what you have become.' The Life After Lock Up star said in a 10-minute TikTok video: 'Whenever you put out text messages between you and I that I think are sacred. That should, in my opinion, be sacred between us. And when I mean sacred, I mean that, there are very few people I trust in this world.

And it's so hard to see what you have become' (pictured October 29) In 2015, Gypsy-Rose gave her online boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn (R) - who had an IQ of 82 - duct tape, gloves, and a knife to stab her physically-abusive mother Clauddine 'Dee Dee' Blanchard 17 times in the back while she slept in her bed The conspiring couple then stole $4,400 in cash from Dee Dee (R) and mailed the murder weapon back to the autistic 35-year-old's home in Wisconsin where they fled by bus And while The Kardashians guest star served eight years of her decade-long sentence for second-degree murder, Godejohn is serving a life sentence without parole at Missouri's Potosi Correctional Center plus an additional 25 years for armed criminal action Catch more of Gypsy-Rose's continuing drama on the second season of Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up, which airs Mondays on Lifetime. In 2015, Blanchard gave her online boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn - who had an IQ of 82 - duct tape, gloves, and a knife to stab her physically-abusive mother Clauddine 'Dee Dee' Blanchard 17 times in the back while she slept in her bed. The conspiring couple then stole $4,400 in cash from Dee Dee and mailed the murder weapon back to the autistic 35-year-old's home in Wisconsin where they fled by bus. Gypsy-Rose and Nicholas' murder - which they blamed on Dee Dee's undiagnosed Munchausen syndrome by proxy - inspired Hulu's eight-part series The Act and Lifetime movie Love You to Death, both of which were released in 2019. And while Blanchard served eight years of her decade-long sentence for second-degree murder, Godejohn is serving a life sentence without parole at Missouri's Potosi Correctional Center plus an additional 25 years for armed criminal action.
