Gypsy Rose Blanchard's Partner Ken Urker's Last Words to Sister Revealed
The sister of Gypsy Rose Blanchard's late partner Ken Urker shared his final words to her as details emerge about his death.
Ken Urker, the on-again, off-again fiancé of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, died Thursday, a day that also marked his 34th birthday. Urker's sister, Autumn, shared his final words to her in a tearful TikTok Live video, stating that his last message was "I love you."
Autumn recounted her last conversation with Urker, noting he said he was going home to sleep before work the next morning. She also alleged that Blanchard's brother, Dylan Blanchard, his wife, and another woman found Urker unresponsive in his Louisiana home. According to Autumn, the group had been at church the previous night and had plans for dinner with Urker that day.
While the official cause of death has not been determined, Autumn suggested that Urker did not die of natural causes. She stressed, however, that law enforcement does not suspect foul play. Parade reported that Autumn also claimed Blanchard and Urker were separated at the time of his death.
Blanchard herself spoke out about Urker's passing, suggesting he may have died from an overdose. She indicated that the overdose might not have been intentional, attributing it to "relentless cyberbullying" and stating Urker had not been in a good state of mind recently.
Autumn publicly criticized Blanchard for speaking to outlets about Urker's death, particularly referencing Blanchard's claim that Urker was found after not responding to a "happy birthday" text. Autumn dismissed this, stating Urker had not been responding to Blanchard for some time.
Urker and Blanchard's relationship began in 2017 after he watched the documentary "Mommy Dead and Dearest." Blanchard, who was convicted of second-degree murder for her mother's death, accepted Urker's proposal while incarcerated. They were reportedly broken up when Blanchard was released from prison in December 2023, and she had married Ryan Scott Anderson. However, she and Urker reconnected after her divorce in early 2024. The couple welcomed a daughter, Aurora, in December 2024.
In March 2025, Blanchard had expressed her belief that her love for Urker was "forever," telling People that they were undergoing couples therapy to improve their relationship and that she fully anticipated their relationship lasting.
