Blanchard said she remains in contact with his family and described those conversations, apart from her relationship with Autumn, as \u201cpositive and respectful during an incredibly painful time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ew.com\/gyspy-rose-blanchard-tension-ken-urker-sister-autumn-12158291\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Entertainment Weekly<\/a> reported that Blanchard is trying to separate her grief over Ken\u2019s death from the public disagreement with his sister.<\/p>\n<h2>She Says Ken Was \u2018Deeply Distressed\u2019 During Their Final Phone Call<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cDuring my final phone conversation with Ken on Monday, September 28, he told me that he was deeply distressed by the situation,\u201d she said, referring to the conflict involving Autumn.<\/p>\n<p>According to Blanchard, Ken told her that Autumn had repeatedly threatened to \u201cgo harder\u201d publicly and add to the negative attention he was already experiencing.<\/p>\n<p>Blanchard herself emphasized the limits of what she could establish about that conversation. \u201cThose were Ken\u2019s statements to me, and I can only speak to what he personally communicated,\u201d she told Us.<\/p>\n<h2>Autumn Disputes the Relationship Timeline and the Events Before Ken Was Found<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DeDkPJriLvJ\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Autumn has challenged several parts of the public narrative surrounding her brother\u2019s final weeks. In comments reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/celebrity-news\/news\/ken-urkers-sister-accuses-gypsy-rose-blanchard-of-lying\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Us Weekly<\/a>, she claimed Ken and Blanchard\u2019s romantic relationship had ended approximately a month before his death. She also disputed suggestions that they remained engaged or were planning another child.<\/p>\n<p>Autumn additionally objected to early reports linking Blanchard\u2019s unanswered birthday message to concern for Ken. She argued that the family welfare check developed independently of that text.<\/p>\n<p>Anita Blanchard, Gypsy Rose\u2019s sister-in-law, contacted authorities after Ken missed work and relatives were unable to reach him. Gypsy Rose\u2019s half-brother Dylan Blanchard ultimately entered the home through an unlocked bedroom window and found Ken unresponsive.<\/p>\n<p>The Lafourche Parish Sheriff\u2019s Office confirmed that officers responded to the Raceland residence and found Ken dead upon arrival. The report describes the case as an ongoing death investigation.<\/p>\n<p>Autumn has also accused Blanchard of failing to contact Ken\u2019s family after his death. Blanchard disputes that broader characterization, saying her communication with relatives other than Autumn has remained respectful.<\/p>\n<h2>The Official Cause of Death Remains Pending Toxicology<\/h2>\n<p>Ken was found dead on October 1, his 34th birthday. Investigators documented drug paraphernalia at the residence, including syringes and a spoon beside a brown powdery substance, according to the police report obtained by <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/ken-urker-was-found-dead-next-to-drug-paraphernalia-holstered-handgun-police-report-12154415\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PEOPLE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Blanchard subsequently told PEOPLE that she believes Ken died from an overdose and said he had been struggling emotionally in the period before his death.<\/p>\n<p>Lafourche Parish Coroner Kayla Breaux said an autopsy was completed on October 2, but the case remains pending toxicology testing and investigators have not released a definitive cause of death.<\/p>\n<p>The Lafourche Parish Sheriff\u2019s Office separately told PEOPLE that investigators had found no evidence of foul play at that stage, while stressing that the investigation was continuing.<\/p>\n<h2>Blanchard Is Turning Her Attention to \u2018Kenan\u2019s Law\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Blanchard says she would rather use the attention surrounding Ken\u2019s death to address online harassment than continue a public fight with his sister.<\/p>\n<p>On October 4, she launched a petition for what she calls \u201cKenan\u2019s Law,\u201d an initiative aimed at changing how major social-media platforms respond to repeated reports of targeted harassment and cyberbullying.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI only have my daughter and my voice,\u201d Blanchard wrote, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/gypsy-rose-blanchard-launches-petition-to-combat-harassment-after-ken-urker-death-12157576\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PEOPLE<\/a>. She said Ken had experienced intense scrutiny online and argued that platforms should evaluate patterns of conduct instead of judging every reported post in isolation.<\/p>\n<p>Blanchard said she has contacted a New Orleans lawyer to help refine the proposal. She characterized the initiative as an effort to strengthen reporting procedures, human review, appeals and evidence preservation rather than restrict criticism or free expression.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would much rather use my voice to focus on that work and on preserving Ken\u2019s legacy than continue a public family dispute,\u201d she told Us.<\/p>\n<p>Ken and Blanchard share daughter Aurora, whom they welcomed in December 2024. Blanchard has said she intends to make sure Aurora grows up knowing how deeply her father loved her and remembering him beyond the online commentary that surrounded his final years.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/> <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/wealthofgeeks.com\/gypsy-rose-blanchard-details-final-call-with-ken-urker-as-dispute-with-his-sister-turns-public\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gypsy Rose Blanchard is responding to Ken Urker\u2019s sister after several days of increasingly public accusations surrounding his death, while also revealing what she says [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":364627,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4557],"tags":[18656,19491,39674,2291,39322,5004,39672,2785,762,39675,39673],"class_list":["post-364624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-marketing","tag-aurora","tag-entertainment-weekly","tag-kayla-breaux","tag-ken-urker","tag-lafourche-parish-sheriff","tag-louisiana","tag-main-social-media-platforms","tag-new-orleans","tag-official","tag-raceland","tag-rose-blanchard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=364624"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364624\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":364626,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/364624\/revisions\/364626"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/364627"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=364624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=364624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=364624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
