Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s boyfriend Ken Urker’s alleged gay relationship with a man named Steve Wood is taking social media by storm.
Ken Urker is a largely private individual who found himself in the spotlight after getting into a relationship with Gypsy Rose Blanchard. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you must be familiar with Gypsy, who drew huge attention because of her participation in the fatal case involving her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard.
Urker, unfortunately, cannot escape the media attention now, and he’s lately found himself at the center of speculation surrounding his sexuality. People online are wondering if he’s gay. But is there any truth to it?

As you’re already aware, Ken Urker gained public attention because of his relationship with Gypsy Rose Blanchard. However, information about him is quite scarce, and there’s hardly any documentation about his life outside of this context.
Ken Urker and Gypsy Blanchard met through a pen-pal program during her time in prison. The duo got engaged in April 2019, but their engagement was eventually called off. Gypsy later married Ryan Scott Anderson. After her marriage with Ryan ended, the couple reignited their relationship in 2024, and are now expecting their first child together.
Despite ups and downs in their relationship, the couple has now reaffirmed their commitment to each other. Gypsy expressed her deep affection for Ken, calling him her soulmate.
Meanwhile, there are rumors regarding Ken Urker’s sexual orientation, specifically questioning if he is gay. TikTok is convinced that he was previously seeing another man. However, there isn’t adequate evidence to support these claims. In fact, Ken has publicly addressed these rumors about his sexuality and his alleged relationship with a man named Steve Wood in a TikTok live session alongside Gypsy.
He clearly denied the existence of Steve Wood, calling the claims unfounded. He emphasized that there will always be rumors, no matter what he does. However, some people have come forward claiming they bumped into Ken Urker on Grindr, an online dating app targeted towards gay and bisexual men, and transgender people.

Ken says there is NO “ Steve Woods” & that is a fake story #gypsyroseblanchard #gypsyrose #kenandgypsy #chad #paninipressed #rumors #factcheck #truth #kenurker
The comment section, unsurprisingly, was not convinced.
One user said:
Steve wood said if you went that route he would pull up the receipts and that he has a box of your stuff and that he wants his stuff back from you..?so lets see if it comes out or not! 🙈
Another wrote,
People do have recipes and Ken lived an worked with Steve in Dallas in his bar
The third was not a fan of Gypsy’s gullibility.
Gypsy is that girlfriend that will stand by her lying boyfriend and psych herself into believing everything he says. We will see A LOT more of this behavior Id wager.
Some did believe Urker, though.
Idk for sure, obviously, but anyone can make a fake account and launch accusations like that. Curious to see what “Steve Wood” says next
Some users think the fake troll account of “Steve Wood,” on Facebook who has since changed their name could be Flawless Nina, a beauty influencer who Gypsy has a feud with, or her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson. There are others who think Ken is lying or refusing to speak out, and he could easily be bisexual.

Ken Urker first reached out to Gypsy in 2017 when she was still in prison. He sent a letter to her after watching the HBO documentary about Gypsy’s dark life with her mother titled ‘Mommy Dead and Dearest.’ The initial exchange quickly turned into a beautiful friendship that eventually blossomed into a romantic connection.
The couple’s relationship got stronger as time passed, leading to a prison proposal in 2018 when Ken got down on his knees and asked Gypsy to marry him. The proposal was made public in 2019. Despite their unshakable bond, the duo’s relationship was heavily scrutinized by the public, forcing them to call off their engagement in August 2019. They briefly got back together before Gypsy exchanged vows with Ryan Scott Anderson.
After her marriage to Ryan collapsed, Ken and Gypsy rekindled their romance. They even got matching tattoos as a show of newfound commitment. In July 2024, Gypsy announced she was pregnant with Ken’s child, bringing a new chapter in their topsy-turvy relationship.
While there are not many details about Ken Urker available publicly as far as his background is concerned, Gypsy did mention he comes from a large family. The couple has a common interest in “nerdy” things, such as the Harry Potter series. She also described him as someone who is caring and expressive.
