The Gypsy Rose Obsession, Part 8
Shownotes
Gypsy Rose Blanchard thought no one was listening.
For years, everything she said from inside Chillicothe was being recorded. Now it's public. More than five hundred hours of it.
Some of those recordings broke through on social media, because on them Gypsy and her now ex-husband Ryan can be heard using racial slurs. She eventually apologized publicly for it.
But that's not the part that got me. It's what she says about her mother, when there's no camera on and no reason to give a polished answer.
Fair warning. This one is rough.
Content warning: racist language and racial slurs, child abuse, sexual content involving a child, murder, and self-harm.
