What Gypsy Rose said in the Facebook comments

A Facebook user posted about a crash with Gypsy Rose Blanchard. “2026 is wild. Just got sideswiped by Gypsy Rose. FML,” the user wrote, as per TMZ.

Another post by Tucker Simmons had photos of the white car’s damage, mainly a heavily dented driver’s side door and many scuff marks. The user added a photo of the police report.

Under the post Shana Pellegrin, wrote: “She was coming back from getting her hair done in Kenner. Nice, she had spa day after her baby daddy died and I almost got pushed into the Walgreens flowerbed. The whole time I’m thinking she must be getting ready for a damn interview.”

Gypsy Rose Blanchard replied in the comments, according to the Facebook post, “I was getting my extension taken out because I have a funeral to go to in the coming weeks. Again have a blessed day,” she wrote.
