Yes, Gypsy-Rose Blanchard has confirmed that she has a lazy eye, meaning one eye has better vision than the other, a condition often referred to medically as amblyopia, which her mother, Dee Dee, used to attribute to various serious illnesses she didn't actually have.
(Dee Dee previously claimed that most of Gypsy's medical records were lost in Hurricane Katrina.) In reality, the only health issue Gypsy suffers from is minor vision impairment in her left eye. “I have a little bit of a lazy eye, not all the time,” she said. Other than that, Gypsy has a perfectly clear bill of health.
Gypsy was diagnosed with 1q21. 1 microdeletion in 2012, and she wrote about the disorder in her December 2024 book, My Time to Stand. While she said that her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, tricked her into believing she had many illnesses, Gypsy did reveal her 1q21. 1 microdeletion diagnosis.
Due to the rules of her parole, she isn't able to live with her boyfriend Ken Urker, and will have to live with her parents for the first few months of her baby's life. “So I am still living with my parents in Cut Off, which is an hour away from [Urker],” she said, referring to her dad's home.
Gypsy-Rose Blanchard has revealed she's lost 25 lbs since giving birth to her baby girl, Aurora, on December 28, crediting her body transformation on having a “healthier” diet.

1q21. 1 microdeletion is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, which means that missing genetic material from one of the two copies of chromosome 1 in each cell is sufficient to increase the risk of delayed development, intellectual disability, and other signs and symptoms.
Gypsy's father, Rod Blanchard, recalled that Dee Dee told him their daughter had a "chromosomal defect" that explained many of her health issues. Years later, genetic testing in 2011 identified a 1q21.1 microdeletion.
Munchausen syndrome is a rare type of mental disorder where a patient fakes illness to gain attention and sympathy. It's hard to diagnose because many other conditions need to be ruled out first. Treatment aims to manage rather than cure the condition, but is rarely successful.
