Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s ex-husband is speaking out after the death of Ken Urker.
After the Life After Lockup star’s former fiancé was found dead from a suspected overdose on his 34th birthday Oct. 1, Ryan Anderson shared his reaction to the tragic news.
“I didn’t believe it at first. I was like no,” he said on the Oct. 2 episode of The Sarah Fraser Show. “My initial thought was shock, like, ‘Hmm, how’d that happen?’”
But then Anderson thought about Blanchard and her 2-year-old daughter Aurora, who she shared with Urker.
“My immediate thought went to, ‘How’s Gypsy?’” he continued. “My immediate thought was, ‘How’s she doing. And what about their kid?’”
Blanchard and Anderson tied the knot in 2022 while she was still behind bars for her part in the murder of her mom Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard. However, they announced their split in March 2024 following her 2023 prison release.
