Gypsy Rose Blanchard Fears ‘Hard Conversation’ With Future Kids About Grandmother’s Murder
HuffPost
Blanchard was released from prison after serving eight years for the murder of her abusive mother, Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard.
Gypsy Rose Blanchard is looking to the future after serving eight years behind bars.
In an interview with People published Thursday, Blanchard spoke about the deep bond she shares with her husband, Ryan Scott Anderson, and confirmed that the couple ― who wed last year ― are planning to start a family.
“Ryan has seen me through some really good times, some really hard times. I would say that he is probably the most compassionate soul that I’ve ever met, and the most patient,” she told the publication. “God knows, he’s so patient with me, because I could be a lot to handle. I could be an emotional handful.”
After describing Anderson as her “emotional backbone,” she added: “We’re in love. It’s hard because I’m going into a new life and I’m newly married, and I’m going to have kids one day, and I’m going to have to explain to my kids why their grandmother on mommy’s side isn’t around. And that’s going to be a really hard conversation.”
Blanchard, who was released from Missouri’s Chillicothe Correctional Center this week, celebrated the occasion with a Friday snapshot on Instagram that showed her smiling in what appeared to be a hotel room.
