Gypsy Rose Blanchard to be released from prison who convicted in mom’s murder

Gypsy Rose Blanchard, the young woman convicted in her mother's murder, is set to be released from prison. The case of Gypsy Rose Blanchard has captivated the nation since it first came to light. Born into a life of abuse and manipulation, Gypsy Rose was forced to live a lie orchestrated by her own mother, Dee Dee Blanchard.

Dee Dee had convinced everyone that Gypsy Rose suffered from multiple severe illnesses, including leukemia and muscular dystrophy. As a result, Gypsy Rose spent most of her life confined to a wheelchair and subjected to unnecessary medical treatments. However, as she grew older, Gypsy Rose began to question her mother's claims and realized the extent of the deception.

 Munchausen syndrome by proxy — a condition where a parent, guardian or caretaker fabricates symptoms to make it look their child is sick.

Throughout her childhood, Gypsy was forced to use a wheelchair and undergo unnecessary medical procedures. Dee Dee began subjecting Gypsy to false medical diagnoses shortly after her birth in 1991, first claiming the infant suffered from sleep apnea, according to attorneys.

Dee Dee began claiming more serious illnesses, like leukemia and muscular dystrophy, which required a wheelchair and feeding tube.

After seeing her story told by others in the media, Gypsy Blanchard will publish an eBook, titled “Released,” on Jan. 9 with a collection of interview transcripts and journal entries to tell her side of the story, according to Penguin Random House publishing.

Gypsy Blanchard will also tell her story in Lifetime’s new docuseries “The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard,” premiering Jan. 5.

The Blanchards moved to Springfield, Missouri, from Louisiana in 2006 after being displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

In a new interview , Gypsy Blanchard said she regrets having her mother killed but was “desperate to get out of that situation.”

Wednesday on X (formerly Twitter), some accounts posted: “How do we get Gypsy Rose to the 2024 Met Gala” to petition for her to have her own Super Bowl commercial.

“It’s so different from the normal everyday life and something that’s so rare, and to have it happen here in Springfield is going to draw interest,” said Cline. “People like the idea that they can escape and they can watch something that isn’t real life to them in their minds. It’s totally separate.”
