The 32-year-old also asserts that she is not at fault for the dissolution of their marriage and requests that the court deny Ryan spousal support from her. Gypsy announced her and Ryan's separation on March 28, 2023, just three months after her early release from prison.

Ryan promised his fans that they would learn more about what happened from the upcoming docuseries, "Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up," and that he'd share more details on TikTok soon.
A fan, unimpressed by Gypsy's move to divorce her husband and request for spousal support, called her out, "Wow #GypsyRose used this man to get through prison and now that she's free she leaves him and expects him to keep paying her way?"

Following the separation, Gypsy Rose Blanchard was seen in the company of her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker. The two were spotted having lunch together and getting matching tattoos. People speculated that the duo was dating but Ken's mom, Raina William, denied the rumors.
Raina said, "They are not back together. They're very cool. Ken is just being a supportive friend to her and that's it." She added that Gypsy was an amazing girl who had made mistakes but was learning from them. Raina, who cares about Gypsy, wants to see good things happen to her.
Aside from the personal changes Gypsy is making in her life, she also embarked on a physical transformation after being released from prison. As we previously reported on April 12, 2024, Gypsy has been spotted in public after undergoing a nose job.
Gypsy's presence was noted at a Dollar General store in Cut Off, Louisiana, where she exhibited signs of her ongoing recovery following her rhinoplasty procedure. Images shared online of her outing portray the removal of most of the post-surgical cast.
With only a minor bandage lingering on her nose, these visuals spotlight her evolving side profile, hinting at a promising outcome post-surgery. Having undergone plastic surgery on April 5, 2024, Gypsy has exhibited remarkable progress in her healing journey.
In her initial post-surgery selfie, she had extensive bandages, but she was healing quickly with minimal bandaging. The surgery that cost $5,000 seemed to have produced good results, possibly making it a worthwhile investment.
After the nose job, online users now wonder how Gypsy is financing her activities. "I thought there were laws against people earning money on their crimes...how does she get around this and get to have fame? Just curious," one fan asked.
Another fan wondered, "Now how does that girl have money or that!? I'm sitting here needed plastic surgery since I was attacked by a dog and it took my lip and all I got was doctors pulling my skin together and it's a mess."

When Gypsy first opened up about her desire to have a nose job, she only stated that it would be part of her personal transformation journey.
Her close friend, Nadiya Vizier, also revealed her intentions, "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."

She stated, "With the public scrutiny as bad as it is, I just don't want to live my life under a microscope. So I created a private Instagram, and I got it verified. And I had absolutely no doubts or trouble with deleting that public one."

Despite others questioning her decision to forsake such a large following, she responded, "That's not real life." She also recalled how during her time in prison, she eagerly looked forward to using social media to share selfies and interact online.
Gypsy quickly realized that the public attention from her online presence was not what she wanted. This prompted her to adopt a more private and controlled approach to social media.
The events in Gypsy's sphere, including pregnancy rumors, continue to intrigue fans. A user shared their interest in X, writing that Gypsy "getting out of prison to immediately divorce her husband, getting matching tattoos with her ex, then getting a nose job in that order rocks so hard.. I’m sorry."

People feel like Gypsy is doing a lot after getting out of prison but her friend, Nadiya insists that "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."

Gypsy is now free to live her life after enduring years of abuse and manipulation by her mother, Dee Dee. Her mom falsely claimed she had many medical conditions and disabilities. She is a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy.
