Gypsy Rose Blanchard is opening up about the last time she saw her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker, in person. Urker was found dead at his Raceland, Louisiana, home on October 1, which happened to be his 34th birthday. No cause of death has been determined, and the Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office says investigators found no signs of foul play.
According to Page Six, Blanchard’s final in-person visit with Urker was on September 22. She pretended to be a DoorDash driver and left a Burger King meal at his door. Urker later texted her to thank her for a Hershey pie, an exchange she shared publicly.“It was such a simple, silly little moment, but one that now means more to me than I could ever put into words,”she told the outlet. The two reconnected in 2024 and welcomed their daughter, Aurora, in December of that year.
Blanchard has also launched a petition urging social media platforms to improve how they handle reports of online harassment, saying,“Fame does not erase humanity.”Her push comes as the investigation into Urker’s death continues.
