Gypsy Rose Blanchard files for restraining order against estranged husband Ryan Anderson
Gypsy Rose Blanchard has reportedly filed a temporary restraining order against estranged husband Ryan Anderson.
According to court documents obtained by People, the papers were filed by Blanchard’s attorneys in the 17th Judicial District Court in the Parish of Lafourche, La.
Page Six has reached out to Blanchard’s legal team for comment.
The couple wed in July 2022 while Blanchard, 32, was serving an eight-year prison term after ordering then-boyfriend Nick Godejohn to murder her mother, Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard, in 2015.
Blanchard was released in December 2023 and revealed that she and Anderson were splitting just three months later.
“People have been asking what is going on in my life,” she wrote on Facebook. “Unfortunately my husband and I are going through a separation and I moved in with my parents’ home down the bayou.”
Blanchard noted that she was listening to her heart and needed space and time to find herself.

Although she didn’t provide any further insight into the breakup, Blanchard later shared on social media that their split may be addressed in an upcoming Lifetime show that focuses on her life post-prison.
“We were filming a lot, so stay tuned for that,” she said on Instagram.
Prior to their split, the couple seemed inseparable. They attended the premiere of Lifetime’s “Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard” in January and appeared happier than ever while sitting next to each other for a string of interviews.
Blanchard even gloated about Anderson’s physical prowess, claiming his “D is fire.”
However, things might not have been so rosy as Blanchard’s close pal Nadiya Vizier told People that her friend was worried Anderson would strike her.
“Gypsy said that she was afraid he was going to hit her,” Vizier alleged. “He didn’t — but that happened in the past with her mother. So, her first instinct was to tighten up and be prepared.”
After the split, Anderson thanked his supporters in a video shared to social media, in which he promised fans that they’ll “see what really happened” between him and Blanchard soon enough.
Blanchard has since been photographed with ex-fiancé Ken Urker, whom she was engaged to for a year in 2018. The two were snapped together in South Louisiana earlier this month and got matching tattoos.
