And now for an Election Night palate cleanser: Gypsy Rose Blanchard revealed the results of a paternity test for her baby on Tuesday.
Blanchard announced back in July that she is pregnant, naming her ex-fiancé and current boyfriend, Ken Urker, as the father, complete with a couples photo shoot and a nine-minute YouTube confessional.
But some fans grew suspicious over the timing of the pregnancy, given Blanchard had filed for divorce from her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson, in March, just four months prior.
To that, Gypsy Rose says: Nice try, suckers.
“Here are the results showing Ken is the father.
As a palate cleanser for Election Night, Gypsy Rose Blanchard on Tuesday disclosed the findings of a paternity test for her child. With a nine-minute YouTube confessional and a couple’s photo shoot, Blanchard revealed her pregnancy in July, naming her current boyfriend and ex-fiance, Ken Urker, as the father. However, given that Blanchard had filed for divorce from her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson, in March—just four months earlier—some fans became suspicious of the timing of the pregnancy. Gipsy Rose responds, “Nice try, suckers.”.
The woman posted a screenshot of a paternity test to Instagram with the caption, “There’s been a lot of chatter around the paternity of our baby and while we’ve known for sure from the beginning, I feel that it’s finally time to put all these theories to rest.”. These findings demonstrate that Ken is the father. We are thrilled to have our baby girl into the world, and Ken is going to be an amazing father. “.”.
People reports that the paternity test helps to resolve some technicalities under Louisiana law, despite some commenters quickly pointing out that Blanchard didn’t need to explain her private business to them. The ex-husband must be listed as the “presumed” father under state law if the mother and ex-husband had been divorced for less than 300 days at the time of the baby’s birth. According to a Louisiana lawyer who spoke to the outlet, this implies that Anderson might have been automatically listed on the baby’s birth certificate in the absence of certified results.
That concludes it. What a delightful and completely ordinary day to honor fatherhood in the United States.
