Gypsy-Rose Blanchard reflects on her new public persona: More inside

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard has recently discussed about criticism she received after dishing out details about her life with the public.

Speaking on Good Morning America on May 30, Blanchard said, “Quite honestly I’m starting to feel like they want a perfect victim and there is no such thing as a perfect victim.”

Blanchard told GMA, “In their mind, the perfect victim would have died. And so now that I survived and perpetrator of the abuse is the one that died, then I’m getting the hate.”

Blanchard, who was the victim of Munchausen by proxy at the hands of her mother Dee Dee, also opened up about the hate she received after posting a Mother's Day post on TikTok.

“Being associated with anything to do with a mother or mother figure, I’m going to get backlash for it,” said Blanchard.

She clarified, “I wanted to acknowledge her, I wanted to honour her memory, and if I got hate for it, so be it.”

“I go through my own guilt on a daily basis, so it’s not like I can ever hide from that,” continued the 32-year-old.

However, Blanchard added, “I don’t know if people want me to crawl up in a ball and just start crying all the time? I can’t live that way. I have to heal myself.”
