The Shocking Truth About Gypsy Rose Blanchard's Ex-Husband Ryan Anderson: Divorce, Feuds, And A New Life In 2025

The whirlwind marriage between Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ryan Scott Anderson has finally reached its definitive conclusion, but the drama is far from over in 2025. Following a highly publicized separation just months after her release from prison, the former couple has finalized their divorce, officially closing the chapter on their two-year union. The latest updates reveal that Gypsy Rose has moved on completely, welcoming a child with her current partner, Ken Urker, a development that has only intensified the public feud with her ex-husband. The narrative surrounding Gypsy Rose’s freedom—from a life controlled by Munchausen syndrome by proxy to a media sensation—has now pivoted to her tumultuous post-prison relationships. As of late 2024 and early 2025, the focus has shifted from the intricacies of her release to the very public fallout with Ryan Anderson, which included a restraining order and a bizarre revelation about the catalyst for their split: a major argument over "food hoarding." This article dives deep into the biography of Ryan Anderson, the true reasons behind the divorce settlement, and the ongoing social media battles defining their lives today.

Ryan Scott Anderson: Biography and Timeline

Ryan Scott Anderson, a middle school special education teacher from Louisiana, became a central figure in Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s life after reaching out to her while she was incarcerated. His profile, once a private life in Lake Charles, was thrust into the international spotlight when their prison romance blossomed into a marriage.

• Full Name: Ryan Scott Anderson (Ryan Scott Anderson)
• Year of Birth: 1986
• Age (as of 2024): 38 years old
• Hometown/Residence: Lake Charles, Louisiana
• Occupation: Middle School Special Education Teacher
• How They Met: Anderson first wrote to Gypsy Rose in prison in 2020. The idea was reportedly suggested by a co-worker after the Netflix series *Tiger King* sparked a cultural conversation about writing to inmates. Their relationship developed through letters and phone calls during the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Marriage Date: July 2022 (while Gypsy Rose was still in prison).
• Separation Date: Announced in March 2024, just three months after her early release.

Anderson’s dedication to Gypsy Rose was evident as he supported her through the final years of her sentence for her role in the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard. Their marriage was a symbol of her new life, but the transition from a prison relationship to a shared life in the real world proved to be unsustainable.

The Real Reason for the Split: Food Hoarding and Conflict

The public was initially shocked when Gypsy Rose announced her separation from Anderson on Facebook in March 2024, only three months after her highly anticipated release from prison. The initial statements were vague, but subsequent reports and sources close to the couple revealed a surprisingly mundane, yet deeply impactful, reason for the sudden fracture: a major fight over food.

The 'Food Hoarding' Argument

According to multiple reports, the catalyst for the breakup was a heated argument stemming from Ryan Anderson's habit of "food hoarding." While this might seem trivial on the surface, for someone like Gypsy Rose, who spent years being starved and controlled by her mother, Dee Dee, the issue was deeply triggering and tied to her past trauma. The conflict escalated into a "major fight," which ultimately led to Gypsy Rose leaving the marital home. The inability to reconcile this fundamental conflict, which touched on the core trauma of her life, proved to be the breaking point for the couple.

The Divorce and Restraining Order

Following the separation, Gypsy Rose filed for divorce from Ryan Scott Anderson. The process, which included her filing a temporary restraining order against him, was finalized in late 2024. The former couple reached a settlement in their divorce, officially dissolving the marriage that had captured the public's attention. This legal closure allowed Gypsy Rose to fully focus on her new life and relationship. The details of the settlement remain private, but the legal finalization marks a significant milestone in her post-prison journey.

The 2025 Feud: Ryan Anderson, Ken Urker, and the New Baby

The drama surrounding Ryan Anderson did not end with the finalization of the divorce; in fact, it took a new, highly public turn in 2025. Gypsy Rose quickly rekindled her relationship with her former fiancé, Ken Urker, who had proposed to her while she was still in prison. The couple moved in together in late June 2024 and, in a major life update, welcomed their first child in December 2024.

The Escalating Public Feud

The new relationship and the birth of the child have fueled a visible feud between Ryan Anderson and Ken Urker. In June 2025, reports surfaced detailing "nasty text exchanges" between Anderson and Urker, indicating lingering animosity and tension over Gypsy Rose. Furthermore, Anderson made claims on social media that Gypsy Rose had texted him in January 2025, just weeks after giving birth. While the content of the alleged texts remains unclear, Anderson’s public claims suggest an ongoing emotional connection or unresolved conflict that continues to play out in the media and on social platforms. This public back-and-forth has kept the "Gypsy Rose ex Ryan" narrative current and highly visible.

Gypsy Rose’s New Chapter

Gypsy Rose Blanchard has made it clear that she is focused on her future with Ken Urker. She has expressed her desire to marry Urker, signaling her commitment to building a stable life and family after years of trauma and incarceration. The recent updates, including the divorce settlement, the new baby, and the public feuds, are all being documented, in part, for the public eye, potentially as part of her reality television ventures, such as *Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up*. The story of her life after prison is proving to be just as complex and compelling as the events that led to her conviction. The finalization of the divorce from Ryan Anderson is a legal end to a relationship that helped Gypsy Rose transition from prison life. However, the public drama—fueled by an ex-husband, a current partner, and a new life—ensures that the entities of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, Ryan Scott Anderson, and Ken Urker will remain intertwined in the pop culture conversation for the foreseeable future.
