Gypsy Rose Blanchard recently revealed that her fiancé, Ken Urker, died from an overdose on his 34th birthday, and she suggested that cyberbullying may have played a role in his mental health struggles leading to his death. Urker was found dead at his home in Louisiana, and Blanchard expressed uncertainty about whether his death was intentional, noting that he had not been in a good state of mind recently.
In the wake of this tragedy, Blanchard highlighted the impact of online harassment on Urker, stating that they had both reported incidents of bullying, often to no avail from social media platforms. She has initiated a petition for “Kenan’s Law,” aimed at holding social media companies accountable for how they address harassment reports, emphasizing the need for stronger protections against such targeted attacks.
Blanchard, known for her past involving her mother’s murder, married Ryan Anderson while incarcerated but divorced less than a year later. She welcomed a daughter with Urker in December 2024.
