Gypsy Rose Blanchard has been released from prison eight years after she conspired with her online boyfriend to kill her abusive mother. Blanchard, now 32, was released after serving 85 per cent of her sentence on 28 December, according to TMZ. She told the outlet that she had already bought tickets for a Kansas City Chiefs game on New Year’s Eve, where she hoped to meet Taylor Swift, who is dating the team’s tight-end Travis Kelce. Blanchard said Swift’s lyrics helped her through her trauma and her time in prison and also noted that she was planning to buy tickets for the singer’s October 2024 tour stop in New Orleans.
Blanchard was arrested with then-boyfriend Nicholas “Nick” Godejohn in connection with her mother Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard’s murder in Springfield, Missouri in 2015.
