Ken Urker, the former fiancé of convicted murderer Gypsy Rose Blanchard, has died aged 33 after being found unresponsive at a home in Louisiana.
Urker was discovered on Thursday, the day he was celebrating his birthday. Family sources said Blanchard had sent him a message saying “Happy Birthday” but did not receive a response.
Blanchard’s brother, Dylan, is understood to have found Urker at the property.
Urker and Blanchard shared a 21-month-old daughter, Aurora Urker, who was born on December 28, 2024.
Aurora’s birth came on the first anniversary of Blanchard’s release from prison, where she had served seven years for her part in the murder of her abusive mother, Claudine “Dee Dee” Blanchard.
Urker and Blanchard had previously been engaged.
