Gypsy Rose Blanchard Involved in Louisiana Car Crash as Police Investigate the Incident

Gypsy Rose Blanchard Involved in Louisiana Car Crash Weeks After Partner’s Death

Gypsy Rose Blanchard was involved in a minor car crash in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, on October 17, according to Louisiana State Police.

Authorities told PEOPLE that the collision involved Blanchard, 35, and another driver. The crash reportedly caused minor property damage, but no injuries were reported and no arrests were made.

The incident drew attention after a social media user claimed their vehicle had been sideswiped by Blanchard. Some reports suggested that sunlight may have affected visibility, though the publicly reported police information did not establish a full account of how the collision occurred.

The crash comes during a difficult period for Blanchard. Her former partner, Ken Urker, who was the father of their young daughter, died on October 1 at age 34. Authorities have said the circumstances of his death remain under investigation.

Blanchard first became widely known after her involvement in the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, a case that later received extensive media coverage. She has since lived much of her life in the public eye.

For now, police have reported no injuries or arrests connected to the crash.
