This podcast episode delves into the tragic and complex life of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, born on July 27, 1991. The story begins with her parents, Rod and Dee Dee, who met in high school and separated shortly before Gypsy's birth. Dee Dee quickly began fabricating illnesses for Gypsy, starting with a claim of sleep apnea when Gypsy was just three months old. As Gypsy grew, Dee Dee expanded her lies, alleging that Gypsy had leukemia and muscular dystrophy, which led to years of unnecessary medical treatments.

In 2005, after Hurricane Katrina destroyed their home, Dee Dee used the disaster to further manipulate Gypsy's identity, claiming all her medical records were lost. This lie allowed Dee Dee to continue controlling Gypsy's life, even convincing the world that Gypsy was much younger than her true age.

The story takes a dark turn in 2015 when Gypsy, desperate to escape her mother's abuse, conspires with her then-boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, to murder Dee Dee. After the murder, Gypsy's shocking post on Dee Dee's Facebook account alerted authorities, leading to their arrest. Gypsy pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 2016 and was sentenced to 10 years in prison, while Godejohn was sentenced to life without parole.

The episode also explores Gypsy's life after prison. Released in December 2023 after serving eight years, she quickly remarried but filed for divorce just months later. Gypsy reconnected with her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker, and the couple is now expecting their first child in January 2025.
