Gypsy Rose Blanchard has revealed that Taylor Swift was her ‘rock’ as she served out her prison sentence for orchestrating the murder of her Munchausen-by-proxy mother. 

The 32-year-old has been a long-time Swiftie and said she relates to Taylor Swift because they’ve both been through their ‘eras,’ TMZ reported.

Being a mega-fan of the popstar she even spent the money that her father sent her in jail to pay for Taylor Swift’s albums – which she bought all of, even the re-releases. 

Taylor inspired Gypsy, who suffered years of abuse at the hands of her mother Dee Dee, to re-gain her freedom after being arrested for Dee Dee’s death in 2015.

Blanchard was released from prison on Thursday and seen in public for the first time as she checked out of a hotel to begin her life as a free woman.

Now that she’s out from behind bars – Gypsy’s husband managed to get his hands on tickets to Sunday’s Kansas City Chiefs game where she hopes to spot Taylor Swift in the crowd cheering on her NFL flame Travis Kelce.

On her first day of freedom, exclusive DailyMail.com pictures showed the famous felon wearing a distressed sweatshirt, jeans, and only socks on her feet alongside her husband, Ryan Scott Anderson.

The couple loaded her belongings – including two plastic grocery bags full of snacks – in to their silver Cadillac sedan.

Their first stop after driving off was at an Off Broadway Shoe Warehouse in Liberty, Missouri, just outside Kansas City, to buy Gypsy two new pairs of sneakers. 

Showing off her new kicks to DailyMail.com on Thursday, a beaming Gypsy said: ‘I love them.’ 

When asked what plans she had for the day she said: ‘Lots of them.’

They then drove on to a four-bedroom Airbnb in a Kansas City suburb. 

Hours earlier on Thursday, Anderson, the teacher Blanchard married behind bars last year, was seen pulling into the Chillicothe Correctional Center in northern Missouri, to pick his wife up at 3:20am. 

His Cadillac sedan, with a Bret ‘the Hitman’ Hart wrestling decal across the front license plate cover, emerged minutes later to whisk Gypsy away for her first night of freedom at the budget hotel.

Blanchard spent her childhood posing as a wheelchair-bound invalid after Clauddine ‘Dee Dee’ Blanchard shaved her daughter’s head, pumped her full of drugs and convinced the world she was suffering from leukemia and muscular dystrophy.

Their ‘inseparable’ bond ended when Gypsy burst free of her warped mom’s control in 2015 by letting her besotted internet boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn creep into their Springfield, Missouri, home to stab 48-year-old Dee Dee to death. 

Gypsy was jailed for 10 years for the matricide but was granted early parole in September after friends and family begged authorities to take account of the cruel abuse and needless medical procedures she endured while being cynically paraded at charity events and fundraisers. 

Among those who wrote an impassioned note to the parole board was Titania Gisclair, a family friend who went to high school with Dee Dee and remained close with Gypsy throughout her stretch in prison. 

She’s praying that Gypsy will make space for ‘healing’ as she puts her years of incarceration behind her to begin post-prison life as an unlikely reality star.

‘Gypsy used to talk about moving to a big city where she could blend in and get a job at Walmart like anyone else. I would have to say, Gypsy I don’t think that’s going to be possible,’ Titania told DailyMail.com ahead of Gypsy’s release. 

‘I struggle with the fact she is diving so deep into all of this publicity at the beginning of her journey but I also sympathize as this is probably her best avenue to financially support herself. 

‘The fact is, she can’t go work at Walmart or a department store because her story will always be out there. 

‘I don’t think it will ever go away. I just hope all this attention doesn’t cause her to regress.’

Questions remain over Gypsy Rose’s culpability in her mother’s murder, amid claims she funded her killer boyfriend’s travel and provided him with the knife used in the 2015 slaying 

Gypsy’s media credits and prison interviews already include Dr Phil, Good Morning America and 20/20, while Hulu, Netflix and Lifetime have all aired TV dramas based on her ordeal. 

She took part in the 2017 HBO documentary Mommy Dead and Dearest, and has an upcoming three-part docuseries, The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, airing January 5 through 7 on Lifetime. 

The network’s cameras will likely follow her every move as Gypsy enjoys her first few days of freedom which will reportedly include a spa, shopping trip and a Kansas City Chiefs game on Sunday – where she’s told TMZ she’s hoping to bump into Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. 

Fans can look forward to more snippets on social media profiles set up prior to her release including a TikTok page – already boasting 400,000-plus followers – which describes her as a ‘public figure/Speaker’ and links to her new eBook, Released: Conversations on the Eve of Freedom. 

She married Anderson, a 37-year-old teacher and wrestling fan from Lake Charles, Louisiana, behind bars last year after calling off her engagement to another man, named Ken. 

It’s not known whether she’s planning to move in with him or with her dad and stepmom, Rod and Kristy Blanchard, who also reside in the Pelican state.
