Gypsy Rose Blanchard reveals she's getting plastic surgery after shock split from husband

Gypsy Rose Blanchard has revealed that she's getting plastic surgery following her divorce from her husband.

In 2016, Gypsy was sentenced to 10 years in prison for her role in her mother's murder, alongside her former boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, who received a life sentence without parole.

However, love seemed to find its way back into Gypsy's life in 2019 when she got engaged to Ken Urker, through a prison pen pal initiative, though the engagement was short-lived.

Later, she tied the knot with Ryan Scott Anderson in 2022, but their marriage has come to an end three months after her release from prison.

In her statement, she revealed: "Unfortunately, my husband and I are going through a separation, and I moved in with my parents' home down the bayou."

In the midst of her divorce, she has also revealed to PEOPLE that she intends to go through some physical changes.

In a statement, Blanchard shared: "I’m going through a personal transformation journey currently and that includes a physical one, too. Wish me luck with my surgery and watch the whole thing this summer on Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up."

According to Blanchard's close friend Nadiya Vizier, the procedure fulfills a long-standing desire, telling People: "She said she's a bit nervous, but she's happy it's going to be done."

"The main thing is that she wanted a more feminine-looking nose. She just wants to fix it up and give it a more feminine look."

Vizier emphasizes that Blanchard's decision to pursue this change is hers to make. "My main message is to just, people need to let her live, let her experience, if they know that she's doing something good or wrong, let her experience that. Let her learn from it. I feel like in a way, people are still trying to control her."

This isn't the only thing that Blanchard has been up to since filing for divorce, as she also met up with her ex... and they got matching tattoos.

Gypsy's ex-fiancé Ken flew in from Texas to offer his support during her separation from Ryan. Their four-day reunion, filled with local cuisine sampling and exploration of the French Quarter, culminated in the two getting matching Husky tattoos.

Although their activities may seem romantic, insiders assert that their relationship remains platonic for now, with Gypsy prioritizing self-discovery during this challenging time.

Ken's mother, Raina Williams, shared that Ken felt compelled to stand by Gypsy's side upon learning of her split from Ryan.

Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up premieres June 3 on Lifetime.
