Just days after posting her first selfie on Instagram, it looks like Gypsy Rose Blanchard is getting the hang of social media. She’s now posted her first video on TikTok.
The 32-year-old, who spent eight years behind bars for orchestrating the murder of her mother, Claudine, gave her fans an update on Sunday (December 31).
She made it known that after her lengthy stint at Missouri’s Chillicothe Correctional Center, she has returned home to Louisiana. Gypsy also thanked those who have shown her tremendous support following her release on Thursday (December 28).
“I’m finally free,” she said. “I just want to send a quick video to thank everyone for the massive amount of support I’ve been getting on social media. Everyone has been really, really nice and supportive, and I really appreciate that.”
Gypsy revealed that she will release an upcoming documentary about her life, titled ‘The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard.’ Additionally, she’s recently finished writing an eBook that she’s excited for people to read.
The memoir, ‘Release: Conversations on the Eve of Freedom,’ is set for a release on January 9. However, Gypsy assured fans in her TikTok that she doesn’t rehash previously discussed events.
The book is “more of a reflection” on things she endured in prison. It includes journal entries, interview transcripts, illustrations, and photos, per Barnes & Noble.
According to Gypsy, she’s included “everything” she’s “learned and experienced in the last eight-and-a-half years.”. The novel will also give her supporters a better understanding of her life before prison.
Social media may prove to be a considerable income booster for Gypsy. She has already amassed over five million followers on Instagram alone.
Her TikTok already has over 6 million followers, and she just opened up a Snapchat account this week, though the social platform doesn’t disclose its users’ follower count.
According to TMZ, the hefty number of followers she has gained in such a short time could potentially see Gypsy earn a fortune.
