Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Takes Pre-Birth Paternity Test Amid Divorce

The test aims to confirm Ken Urker as the father, countering Louisiana's presumption that her estranged husband, Ryan Anderson, is the parent.

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard's decision to take a Noninvasive Prenatal Paternity test is unusual, as such tests are typically done post-birth.
Blanchard's ex-husband, Ryan Anderson, expressed confusion and disapproval over her decision to publicize the test results.
Louisiana law presumes that Anderson is the father since the divorce has not been finalized for 300 days before the child's birth.
The paternity test was non-invasive, using Blanchard's blood and a cheek swab from Ken Urker, her current partner.
Blanchard's attorney argues that the test was necessary to ensure Urker's name appears on the birth certificate, countering the legal presumption.
