Reality Star Gypsy Rose Blanchard Shares Baby Bliss Amid Privacy Concerns

Louisiana, USA — Reality TV star Gypsy Rose Blanchard shared a rare family moment on Instagram following the 43rd Annual Louisiana Irish-Italian Parade on March 23, 2025. Blanchard, 33, posed with her boyfriend, Ken Urker, and their two-month-old daughter, Aurora Raina Urker, showcasing their growing family.

The photo captures Blanchard holding Aurora while wearing a cream tank top and a patterned silk midi skirt. Aurora, dressed in a short-sleeved bodysuit featuring a design inspired by Disney’s “The Lion King,” adds a touch of whimsy to the moment. Urker complements Blanchard in grey shorts and a green hooded sweatshirt, holding a leash for their Labrador husky, which the couple adopted last year as a symbol of their bond.

In her Instagram caption, Blanchard noted, “Louisiana Irish parade ,” while Urker expressed his joy about the family outing with, “Family time at the Irish/Italian parade! ” This shared moment comes despite Blanchard previously asserting her desire to keep her daughter’s images private. Just after Aurora’s birth on December 28, 2024, she expressed her stance through Instagram, stating, “To everyone asking, No, I will not be posting pictures of Aurora. I understand everyone’s excitement and we appreciate the support, but we value the privacy and safety of our daughter.”

Blanchard announced Aurora’s arrival on January 1, 2025, with a touching hospital photo where she cradles the newborn. Since then, she has only shared selective images of Aurora, maintaining a careful approach to privacy. On Valentine’s Day, she shared a glimpse of her daughter without revealing her face, captioning the post, “They are my two sweethearts this Valentine’s Day.”

Blanchard, who gained notoriety for her tumultuous past, including being a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy and subsequent imprisonment for her mother’s death, recently opened up about her relationship with Urker. In a recent episode of “Life After Lockup,” she remarked on not rushing into marriage given her ongoing divorce from estranged husband Ryan Anderson. “When we reconnected, it was the hormones,” she explained about rekindling her romance with Urker. “The hormones made me move so fast. Do I regret it? I don’t regret the choices I’ve made with him.”

Urker, meanwhile, has demonstrated commitment, expressing that while there is no official proposal planned yet, they are heading in that direction. “We don’t have an exact date, but it definitely is at the forefront of our lives,” he said. “It’s something that we all want as a family, and eventually, we’ll get there. So just stay tuned for that.”

Despite her complicated history, Blanchard expresses joy in her current life, stating, “I have loved this man for seven years. I am so happy and content.” She emphasized the importance of mature communication in their relationship now that they are navigating parenthood together.

Blanchard’s new chapter as a mother has brought both challenges and love. Reflecting on her experience, she shared, “I think despite my relationship with my mom, 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.”

The world continues to watch as Blanchard and Urker navigate their family life, with fans eager to see what the future holds for the couple.
