Gypsy Rose Blanchard Details Shooting Mom With BB Gun, Being Chained to Bed in Chilling Book
Gypsy Rose Blanchard has one more gift on the way.
The pregnant 33-year-old, who is expecting her first child in January with former fiancé Ken Urker, put her baby bump on display in a family holiday picture shared on social media Dec. 25.
Donning a white maternity sweater and blue jeans, she posed in front of a Christmas tree with her father, Rod Blanchard, and stepmother, Kristy Blanchard, as Ken rested his hands on her growing bump.
“A December to remember,” the dad-to-be wrote on Instagram alongside the festive photo. “Merry Christmas to all!”
While the baby is not due until the new year, the former inmate—who recently finalized her divorce from Ryan Anderson, whom she married in 2022—previously shared that she already decided on her little one’s name: Aurora Raina Urker. As for the inspiration behind the name, Gypsy admitted she had a little bit of help.
“Ken came up with that. There's a whole backstory to it,” she told People in an interview published Dec. 10, adding that rumors she lifted the name from her stepmom’s dog Aurora Grace are untrue. “It's not because of that.”

In fact, the My Time to Stand author went on to reveal exactly how and when she and Ken—who ended their engagement in 2019 before reuniting in 2023—came up with the name.
“Back whenever Ken and I were together seven years ago, both of us have a fascination with the Northern Lights, and the proper term is the Aurora Borealis,” she explained. “I think it was maybe in 2018, we wrote each other's future kid's name on pieces of paper and Aurora is what we both picked without even knowing each other was picking it.”
