Gypsy-Rose Blanchard<\/a> is ready for Ken Urker<\/a> to pop the question.<\/p>\nWhile recently chatting with PEOPLE, Blanchard, 34, looked back on her divorce from ex-husband Ryan Scott Anderson<\/a>\u00a0and forward to her future with Urker, with whom she shares 9-month-old daughter Aurora<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u201cWhen he proposes, the answer will of course be ‘yes,’ ” Blanchard tells PEOPLE in anticipation of Urker proposing again.<\/p>\n
In October 2018, Urker proposed to Blanchard for the first time, though they\u00a0called off their engagement before reuniting<\/a>\u00a0in August 2019.

“I have been in love with Ken since the day we first met,” she says. “We have been through more than most couples have and have had challenges that would break many couples, but we still stand strong, and I don\u2019t ever see that changing.”<\/p>\n
Blanchard notes that she and Urker “moved in together in late June.” Last year, she announced her separation<\/a>\u00a0from Anderson in March 2024, three months after her prison release for the\u00a0murder of her mother<\/a>, Dee Dee, who made her undergo years of intense, unneeded medical treatments. She\u00a0filed for divorce<\/a>\u00a0the following month, and the exes\u00a0legally parted ways<\/a>\u00a0in December 2024.<\/p>\nWhile Blanchard wants to tie the knot again, this time with Urker, she points out that she doesn’t think being married would change much about their dynamic.<\/p>\n
“There is a clip from our Lifetime show [Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up]<\/em> when my dad says marriages are a piece of paper, and for a long time I thought he meant that the idea of marriage doesn\u2019t have value, but now I understand what he meant by that \u2014 a document is just a piece of paper, but the love that two people have for one another is the marriage,” she tells PEOPLE.<\/p>\n“So to both me and Ken, even though it\u2019s not on paper, we still consider ourselves united in our love for each other,” she says.<\/p>\n
She continues, “Of course, having his last name would be nice, but it wouldn\u2019t change anything in our daily life. We still love each other just as much. We value the important pillars on which a committed relationship stands on honesty love, respect and trust.”<\/p>\n
In late June, Blanchard appeared in a two-part episode on iHeartRadio’s\u00a0misSPELLING<\/em><\/a>\u00a0podcast, in which she opened up about her future plans with Urker<\/a>. Like she just told PEOPLE, Blanchard told host\u00a0Tori Spelling<\/a> that she’s ready for a ring.<\/p>\n\n![\"Lifetime](\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/Tsy.2ytVSnwz4lKXsKCx_w--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTY0MTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/people_218\/a2de497a1375a75986067897ad6b9626\"\/)
