His social media announcement came later on the same day that Blanchard, 33, and her new boyfriend Ken Urker, 31, revealed they are expecting a baby girl together after holding a gender reveal. It's proper protocol to have a DNA test conducted in order to establish paternity for separated couples who are still married under Louisiana state law, according to People . 'I have to get a DNA test.
I don't have a choice,' Anderson said in the social media clip, before adding, 'I hate being in this situation.' Ryan Anderson says he's taking a DNA test to confirm the paternity of his estranged wife's pregnancy, which she and current boyfriend maintain is a girl Anderson maintains he has to 'take a DNA test for court,' and then followed-up by offering up his opinion before he gets the final results. 'The way the timeline matches up — I don't think it's mine, but I don't know.
The DNA test is going to prove it,' he shared. 'Crazier things have happened. I just don't know.
I have my thoughts and I have my opinions.' The media personality, 32, announced on July 9 that she's expecting a baby with Urker, her current boyfriend, with a due date around January 2025. This would put the date of conception to be around April.
Blanchard (born Gypsy-Rose Alcida) filed for divorce from Anderson on April 8 shortly after they publicly announced their split. It turns out Louisiana law states that she may have to name Ryan Anderson on the birth certificate if she is still legally married to him by the time the baby arrives. If Urker wants his name on the birth certificate, Anderson must sign an affidavit saying he is the father.
If he doesn't move forward with this legal procedure with the court then the three of them will have to take a DNA test to confirm the parents. 'If the husband goes and signs the affidavit along with the boyfriend, then the true father, if you will, if it's the boyfriend's name, will go on the birth certificate,' Louisiana attorney Beau Brock explained. If DNA results prove that Urker is the father, his name will officially replace Anderson’s name on the birth certificate as the baby's father.

I don't have a choice,' Anderson said in the social media clip, before adding, 'I hate being in this situation' Louisiana law states that Blanchard may have to name her estranged husband, Anderson, on the birth certificate if she is still legally married to him by the time the baby arrives Anderson and Blanchard obtained a marriage license in Chillicothe, Missouri, in late June 2022, while she was still serving time in prison, as reported by Springfield News-Leader . And then, less a month later, they decided to tie-the-knot in a small prison ceremony without any guests.
The pair would end up calling it quits about three months after Blanchard was released from Chillicothe Correctional Center in Missouri in March 2024. 'Unfortunately my husband and I are going through a separation and I moved in with my parents,' she shared on Facebook at that time. 'I have the support of my family and friends to help guide me through this.
I am learning to listen to my heart. Right now I need time to let myself find..
. who I am.' Soon after revealing her discovery process to find out 'who I am' she was spotted spending time with Urker, her ex-fiancé.
Some four months later she and Urker would make the announcement that they're expecting their first baby together on July 9. 'The way the timeline matches up — I don't think it's mine, but I don't know. The DNA test is going to prove it,' he shared.
