Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s life after prison continues to be a complicated mix of personal growth and legal hurdles. In the upcoming episode of Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up, a new challenge emerges: a paternity dispute that throws the birth certificate of her baby into question. As Gypsy builds a new life for herself, the shadows of her past, and the complexities of Louisiana law, create yet another obstacle.
According to Louisiana law, Ryan – Gypsy’s former partner and a key figure in her complicated history – will initially be listed on the birth certificate. This presents a fresh wave of difficulty for Gypsy, who is working to distance herself from the events that led to her imprisonment. To change the name on the birth certificate, a court-ordered paternity test becomes necessary, adding a legal dimension to Gypsy’s ongoing personal journey.
As if dealing with the legal system weren’t enough, Gypsy also continues to face online harassment, a constant reminder of the public scrutiny that has followed her for years. The episode airs Monday, March 31st at 9:00 PM ET/PT on Lifetime.
