Watch: Gypsy Rose Blanchard Reveals 25-Pound Weight Loss 3 Months After Giving Birth to First Baby

Gypsy Rose Blanchard is showing off her transformation journey.

The Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up star debuted her new figure on social media just over three months after welcoming daughter Aurora with boyfriend Ken Urker in December.

Gypsy Rose posted a side-by-side collage of herself on Instagram April 13, using one photo from a January 2024 red carpet event and another seemingly recent mirror selfie that she captioned, "My 25lbs weight loss," along with a heart emoji.

In the newer snap, the 33-year-old wears form-fitting blue jeans and a white collared halter top with a plunging neckline and button-front. Gypsy Rose also rocked the chic bob that she had debuted on Instagram in early March.

The reality star—who was released from prison in December 2023 after serving eight years for her role in her mom Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard's 2015 murder—had worn the same look in an April 5 Instagram post in which she happily posed alongside Ken, who is holding baby Aurora in the family snap.

“Freak” Gypsy Rose Blanchard Details Sex Life With Ken Urker

While the couple—who were formerly engaged in 2018, but split in 2019—is happily raising their daughter together, they're not rushing their relationship, which they rekindled back in April 2024 after Gypsy Rose filed for divorce from Ryan Anderson in April 2024.

“When we reconnected, it was the hormones,” she explained of Ken on the March 17 episode of Life After Lock Up. “The hormones made me move so fast. Do I regret it? I don't regret the choices I've made with him. What I regret is how I went about it.”

"I wouldn't take it back, but I wish it would have been different for Ryan’s sake," Gypsy Rose continued. "People got hurt, and I recognize that a lot more now. The last thing I want to do is make another hasty decision."

The Louisiana native noted that Ken "hasn't hinted around to proposing," so they're likely both naturally on the same page about the pace of their romance.

“He's just making big statements of love,” Gypsy Rose shared. “And with an upcoming baby, with my divorce about to be finalized, that's when we move into unknown territory that I am free. I'm not married to Ryan anymore. I'm not held down by that. Anything can happen.”

And, ultimately, she's just happy to be with the person that she's loved for so many years.

“I have loved this man for seven years,” she explained. “I am so happy and content. Is everything rainbows and sunshine? Hell no! But I feel like we've gotten to a place that we can be open with each other about the time that we were separated, we're able to handle things in a more mature way now.”
