Gypsy Rose Blanchard files for divorce from estranged husband

Gypsy Rose Blanchard and Ryan Scott Anderson, who tied the knot in a jailhouse ceremony, were married for less than two years.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who spent eight years behind bars for her role in the murder of her abusive mother, has officially filed for divorce from Ryan Scott Anderson.

The ex-couple was married for less than two years. Blanchard and Anderson, both 37, wed in 2022 while Blanchard was serving time for second-degree murder at the Chillicothe Correctional Center in Missouri.

Blanchard filed for divorce on Monday, though the grounds for filing are not yet public.

Before Monday, Blanchard announced on her personal Facebook page in March that she would be separating from Anderson.

The news came about three months after Blanchard’s prison release.

“People have been asking what is going on in my life. Unfortunately, my husband and I are going through a separation and I moved in with my parents, down the bayou,” Blanchard wrote, according to People magazine. “I have the support of my family and friends to help guide me through this. I am learning to listen to my heart.”

Blanchard has otherwise not spoken publicly about the divorce.

Anderson, who is a special-education teacher from Louisiana, posted a TikTok video on Sunday thanking his social media followers for the “support and nice messages.”
