Ken Urker was found dead in his Raceland, Louisiana home on Thursday, his 34th birthday. The Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Office has not released a cause of death, and the investigation remains open.
Days after his death, Gypsy Rose Blanchard posted an Instagram tribute calling Ken her“soulmate”and an amazing father to their 21-month-old daughter, Aurora. But Ken’s sister Autumn Urker told The U.S. Sun that account is false, saying the relationship had ended more than a month earlier and that there were no engagement or baby plans.
Autumn also disputed the suggestion that Ken was found after not responding to a birthday message from Gypsy, saying Gypsy“had no right to lie”about the circumstances. Gypsy has not publicly responded to Autumn’s claims.
