Gypsy Rose Blanchard Gives Postpartum Update After Welcoming First Child With Boyfriend Ken Urker
Gypsy Rose Blanchard is thankful to be a girl mom.
The Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up star, who welcomed daughter Aurora Raina Urker with partner Ken Urker at the end of December, shared that she was “relieved” that she gave birth to a baby girl and not a boy.
“I kind of feel a little bit more relieved that we had a girl because I don’t know what to do with a little boy,” Gypsy Rose told People in an interview published Feb. 28. “I’m a girly girl myself, so all the pink and ruffles and stuff like that, that’s my area of expertise.”
The 33-year-old—who served eight years in prison after being charged with second-degree murder for her role in the 2015 death of her mother Dee Dee Blanchard—went on to explain that her desire for a daughter stems from her relationship with her late mother.
“I think despite my relationship with my mom,” Gypsy Rose noted, “I think there is something special about a mother and daughter’s relationship that I am so blessed to be able to live through with her because I didn’t have that with my own mom.”
