About The Author
Gypsy-Rose Blanchard
Gypsy-Rose Blanchard served 8 years of a 10-year sentence for the second-degree murder of her mother, Clauddine Blanchard, and was released from Missouri’s Chillicothe Correctional Center at the end of 2023. From birth to age 23, Gypsy was the victim of incomprehensible emotional, physical, and medical abuse at the hands of her mother, who is suspected to have suffered from Munchausen syndrome by proxy—a rare psychological disorder marked by attention-seeking behavior of a primary caregiver (most often the mother) through those who are in their care.
