Blanchard has not publicly addressed the crash, though a Facebook user is believed to have posted about the incident.

“2026 is wild. Just got sideswiped by Gypsy Rose. FML,” the user allegedly wrote, according to TMZ.

The close call comes after the sudden death of the Blanchard’s former fiance Ken Urker on October 1.

Blanchard and Urker share young daughter Aurora, born in December 2024.

The father was found dead on his 34th birthday by Blanchard’s brother inside a Louisiana home.

The former couple had first connected while she was serving time in prison for the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, after years of abuse.

Blanchard recently launched a petition lobbying to pass “Kenan’s Law”, which would alter how social media platforms respond to repeated cyberbullying.

“Behind the screen was a real person. A father and partner. Someone who was loved,” Blanchard wrote on social media following Urker’s death.

“Kenan’s Law is about turning awareness into change. It is about recognising the cumulative impact of cyberbullying and pushing for stronger protections and accountability online.”

Urker’s death remains under investigation.
