Gypsy-Rose Blanchard issues apology after ‘racist’ prison phone conversation leaks online: ‘I made cruel comments about people I love’

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard is making amends.

The 35-year-old posted an apology after resurfaced recordings of her saying the n-word while on phone calls from prison made the rounds on social media.

Audio included alleged conversations painting interracial marriage in a negative light, joking about wearing KKK robes and using other derogatory terms for Black people.

Blanchard was convicted of plotting to kill her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, with her then-boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn in 2016 and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

“I want to directly address some of the old prison phone calls that have recently been shared online,” she expressed on her since-deactivated TikTok post. “In those conversations, I used racist language and made cruel, disrespectful comments, including about people I love.”

“What I said was wrong,” Gypsy-Rose added. “The words were racist and I take full responsibility for saying them. There is no excuse for that language or the pain it’s caused. To the Black community, I’m sorry for using words that are hateful and demeaning. I understand the anger and disappointment those words carry.”

In the audio recording, Gypsy-Rose spoke with her then-husband, Ryan Anderson, who seemed to use similar language freely.

The then-couple talked negatively about Gypsy-Rose’s sister, Mia, and her fiancé Andre‘s interracial relationship, prompting her to call them out personally multiple times in her apology.

She confessed they “didn’t deserve that then” and they “don’t deserve it now.”

“Since coming home, being able to have a relationship with you both has meant so much, and it’s heartbreaking that my own words have caused this pain and damaged that trust,” Gypsy-Rose continued.

The ex-con insisted that version of herself no longer aligns with who she is now or what she believes almost a decade down the line.”I can’t go back and undo what I said; what I can do is acknowledge it fully, learn from it and continue choosing to be better every single day,” she wrote. “I am not asking anyone to forget or immediately forgive me. Trust is earned through consistent action and I accept that some people may never see me differently.”

The mom-of-one once again apologized personally to her sister and soon-to-be brother-in-law, noting she had also apologized to the couple in private.

“I wanted to make this statement, not because these calls became public, but because I should never have spoken those words in the first place,” she concluded.

She has since deactivated all of her social media accounts after receiving even more backlash for her statement.

“I’m not surprised Gyspy-Rose is racist,” one person wrote online.

“You only sorry cause you got caught,” another criticized, while a third penned, “Y’all make the wrong people famous and be so shocked when you see their true colors.”

Gypsy-Rose was released from prison on parole in 2023 after serving nearly eight years of her sentence.

She married Ryan in 2022, but the couple split in 2024. Gypsy-Rose went on to connect with Ken Urker, with whom she welcomed a daughter, Aurora, in January 2025.
