Gypsy Rose Blanchard Gives Update in Ryan Anderson Divorce (Exclusive)
Gypsy Rose Blanchard has an emotional message for her ex-husband Ryan Anderson.
One year after their breakup, the 33-year-old tearfully said she and the special education teacher "can't be friends" after he leaked screenshots of their private text messages on TikTok.
According to Gypsy, she had confided in Ryan earlier this year when she was feeling "distant" from boyfriend Ken Urker following the birth of their 4-month-old daughter Aurora.
"I reached out to you when I was two weeks postpartum and I didn't know how to handle my emotions," Gypsy said in a May 5 TikTok addressed to her ex. "I leaned on you because I trust you."
However, as the Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up star noted, that trust has since been broken.
"Whenever you put out text messages between you and I that I think are sacred," she continued, "I thought that was gonna stay between us."
Gypsy went on to blame Ryan's "TikTok personality," telling her ex that "it's so hard to see what you have become."
"When I see you on TikTok, acting the way you do, talking the way you do," she said, "that's not the man that I married."
And while Gypsy acknowledges that Ryan speaking out online about their broken marriage is his way of finding "peace" with their split, she was still hurt by his recent actions.
"I just want the best for you," she said through tears. "I want you to be happy. I want you to move on. I want you to move on with someone that's going to make you happy, that's going to love you like you should be loved."

She continued, "I always said Ken is my love, but you were my comfort. You were my safe place because I knew that you never would hurt me. And I'm just tired of this war and I want it to end."
Apologizing for creating any "confusion, anger and disappointment" in trying to keep a friendship with Ryan after finalizing their divorce in late 2024, Gypsy said she has come to the conclusion that she "can't keep texting" him.
"I can't keep talking to you," she told her ex. "As long as I keep talking to you, you feel some sort of connection. But we can't be. We can't do that. We're not at that space."

Gypsy added, "All I could do is wish you the best, and I know that is finite and definite. I know this is all sinking in—that it's really the end now—but you will always have a place in my heart and we will always have those good memories together."
E! News has reached out to Ryan for comment but hasn't heard back.
