‘The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard’

Calling all true crime fanatics. The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, which premiered on Lifetime earlier this month, offers a deeper look into the life of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy victim Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who, in a desperate attempt to escape years of abuse, had her mother brutally murdered in 2015. In the six-episode docuseries, Blanchard recounts her life in captivity under her mother, Dee Dee, who tricked the world into thinking her daughter suffered from several chronic illnesses by forcing her to use a wheelchair, shave her head and eat through a feeding tube. The special not only outlines the days leading up to Blanchard’s parole, but also sheds light on the difficulties of dating while in prison as the ex-convict prepares to marry the love of her life Ryan Anderson all while grappling with the lingering feelings she still has for her ex-boyfriend. With raw interviews and never-before-heard details, The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard will have you hooked from start to finish.
