Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up - Episode Guide

With the world watching in anticipation, and her family eagerly awaiting a reunion, Gypsy Rose Blanchard is released from prison after serving eight and a half years for her role in the murder of her mother. In her first 12 hours of freedom, Gypsy is chased by paparazzi, threatened with a parole violation if she doesn't leave the state of Missouri immediately, and reveals whether she has consummated her marriage. Gypsy's first taste of freedom leaves her fearful of going back to prison.

Fearing a violation of her probation, Gypsy works to resolve issues with her parole officer. Ryan questions Kristy's motivations when he learns she's been in contact with Gypsy's ex-fiance, Ken. Gypsy settles into her new life in Lake Charles, but having been dependent on her mother her entire existence, she worries about what she can contribute to her marriage with Ryan. Rod and Gypsy share a father-daughter moment three decades in the making.

As the outpouring of love on social media suddenly gives way to hateful DMs and death threats, Gypsy tries to tune out the noise and focus instead on her journey towards self-acceptance and planning a wedding reception with Ryan.

After their press trip and makeshift honeymoon to NYC, Gypsy and Ryan travel to her family's home in Cut Off, Louisiana to confront memories of her past; once she returns home to Lake Charles, Gypsy learns that her ex, Ken, is eager to reconnect.

Hoping to make their connection stronger, Gypsy and Ryan add to their family and adopt a puppy named Pixie; when Gypsy tells Mia that she may be pregnant, things in their lives take a turn and Mia begs Gypsy to do something about it; Ryan becomes enraged learning that Gypsy is telling not only her sister, but the world, about their sex life; for the first time ever, Gypsy's ex-fiancé, Ken, is interviewed.

With lifelong insecurities about her looks, Gypsy starts on a path to change her physical appearance while Ryan's own insecurities bubble to the surface; more than two months after Gypsy's release, Rod feels jealous of everyone's alone time with his daughter, so he and Gypsy experience some firsts; with emotions high, Gypsy confides in Kristy that her feelings for her ex-fiancé, Ken, haven't changed, revealing doubts about her future with Ryan.

During Gypsy's trip to Cut Off without Ryan, he sends her a text that sets their relationship into a downward spiral. Back in Lake Charles, Gypsy gets a call from her parole officer about social media sending her into a tailspin about going back to prison. Still reeling from their argument, Ryan and Gypsy go on a date to talk about their issues that ends with Ryan breaking down. After admitting she's in touch with Ken and needing some space from her relationship, Gypsy asks her family to help her get out of Lake Charles.

After an emotional goodbye to Pixie, Gypsy settles into the life she's never had with Rod and Kristy. Gypsy continues to be torn between talking to Ryan and being more open about her feelings for Ken, sparking internet rumors and leaks. Despite the turmoil, Gypsy undergoes her rhinoplasty. While recovering, Mia is critical of the decisions Gypsy has made about Ryan and Ken, but the advice falls on deaf ears as Gypsy makes plans to see her ex. As Gypsy pursues a fresh start with Ken, unexpected news leaves her reeling.

After an emotional separation from her husband Ryan and an impulsive reconnection with Ken, her ex-fiancé, Gypsy Rose Blanchard finds herself unexpectedly expecting just six months after her release from prison. Due to parole restrictions, a pregnant Gypsy will have to navigate two households--one in New Orleans with boyfriend Ken who has moved to New Orleans to pursue his dream of having a family; and one with Rod and Kristy, down the Bayou. On her path to motherhood, Gypsy will contend with the increasingly volatile world of social media and the continuing fears of Ken leaving her. But the biggest challenge will be to prove to everyone else and herself that she is capable of breaking the cycle of abuse from her mother with her own baby girl. 

With her divorce from Ryan ongoing, prepping for the baby, and Ken's upcoming move to a bigger house, Gypsy tries to manage her stress and keep her relationship with Ken on an even keel.

As Gypsy continues to struggle with the daily online hate she faces, she decides to brave hundreds of people in real life at a public speaking engagement; she's reminded that she may never escape the reason that she's in the spotlight, her crime.

Online haters continue to haunt Gypsy; with Gypsy feeling extra vulnerable to the social media ire, Kristy decides to enlist the police for help; Gypsy faces another challenging situation as her lawyers inform her that, due to Louisiana law, the baby will have Ryan's name on the birth certificate until a court ordered paternity test is done.

As Gypsy and Ken wait for the results of their paternity test, the internet weighs in; to get a break from the scrutiny, Gypsy plans a "Babymoon" with the hope that she and Ken can inject a little passion back into their relationship.

After getting off to a rocky start with Gypsy's father, Ken tries to put his best foot forward; as Gypsy begins the final stretch of her pregnancy, Ken's mom and brother fly into town for Gypsy's baby shower.

As divorce day nears, Ryan messages Gypsy that he misses her; rather than reply, she and Bri share the messages publicly in the hopes it will quiet some of the online hate directed at Gypsy; the negative public reaction is swift.

Gypsy is busy promoting her memoir which has been years in the making, while juggling the final stretch of pregnancy.

As Gypsy and her boyfriend Ken countdown the final weeks until their baby Aurora's due date, Ken decides to prepare a huge holiday feast for the Blanchard family to show his commitment to building a new vision of family for Gypsy.

When Ken learns of Gypsy's plan to meet Ryan, with baby Aurora in tow, he puts his foot down and gives her an ultimatum. Not willing to put her family in jeopardy, Gypsy has to make a choice. Communication with Ryan crumbles as he reacts to the change in plans. Unsure of the best way forward, they both meet with their attorneys, and Ryan finds himself taking the paternity test in search of a definitive answer.
