You would think this woman would want to live a quiet life but it seems the need for attention is too strong.

[@stevendeen4391]

I feel bad for the kids

[@SarahG419]

I have an idea that this need for attention has a lot to do with the way her mother alway put a pity spotlight on her. She was used to that kind of attention for a good majority of her life. But with all the hate in this world it would be wise to learn to be more private. Especially now that she will have her own child.

[@yairethcastro71596]

Blame the media. This girl has obviously been through trauma and god knows if she’s gotten therapy for it. The media treated her like a celebrity and now she thinks she IS one.

[@Cb20345]

[@mauriciogeovani2705]

[@Mr_Zod]

They are not respected in the US because most of of you do not care about facts, all that matters are opinions that match what you think, the rest of the world realizes how pathetic you are, not that you would ever understand that, since you are ignorant, self entitled, trash.

[@LifeInTheRedKim]

[@lycanhd]

Why? It is news about a celebrity.

[@Therezumee92]

Making a murderer into celeb is the most American thing there is...👀 What's she's gone through is horrific, I genuinely believe she has a lot of valuable insight on her mothers illness to give once SHE'S WORKED THROUGH IT MENTALLY AND ADAPTED TO WORLD AFTER PRISON. I understand her need to earn money, but the way media and people like vultures follow her right out of prison will be her downfall. She was not ready for marriage, she was not ready for romantic relationship, let alone baby, she's still such a broken child, she may be an adult, but her family and father is failing her once more.

[@Mr_Zod]

It is how the US works, cashing in on a broken person to make money is about as American as you can get, money comes first in the US, everything else is irrelevant, I honestly feel sorry for you people, you do not realize how bad your culture is.........

[@aliusaho7537]

thats what you get for being a dumbass simp lmao

[@chapstickaddict435]

From what I've read, I'm glad she doesn't have Nick's baby, he doesn't sound like a mentally healthy individual. Take out the autism because it doesn't cause someone to kill or be unstable, Nick clearly has other significant mental health issues that I hope are being addressed in prison via a therapist. I feel like a baby in the mix would be dangerous if he was out. He spoke about wanting to have Victor (His other persona) have sex with their future teenage daughter for a sacrifice. He also enjoyed murdering Deedee and wanted to rape her. That's not normal thinking. That's not a healthy mind.

Poor baby 😢

[@tinahickman6300]

Actually watched several of the documentaries about this girl's life. Her mother put her through hell. She was just a kid and her mom used her to get all kinds of money and benefits. This girl never had a real childhood. She tried to escape her mother many times and so many people and doctors and services failed to protect her from her mother. I think that the prosecutors tried to do what was right by her and she did the time that she was given. If social media and news wants to keep up with her fine that's what news does. She served her time let her get on with her life and she has every right to do whatever. She's a convicted felon now she's going to have that with her for the rest of her life everybody's always going to know who she is there's no escaping that. If anybody deserves a second chance it's her.

[@jessmc90]

She has a genetic chromosome micro deletion which made all of her treatments necessary. Her mother was a grifter and exaggerated the treatments for money but all of the treatments were necessary. Gypsy was in on things from age 8. She hadn’t been to a doctor in 7 years when she offed her mother.

I hope she has spent the last 10 years getting some profound and significant counselling to overcome the horrific trauma she has been through. The people commenting on here claiming that she is going to be an abuser because she was abused… You are clearly not a survivor yourself. Wish this poor girl the best, and pray that the year she has left help to make up for the horrible ones that she's already lived.

[@jrodamores87]

We understand all of that. But she also plotted to have her mother brutally murdered and in doing so she is completely ruined two lives. No one is against gypsy, but she needs to be off press tours and just living a quiet life somewhere.

[@cherylmiller1970]

She’s so manipulative! I’ve seen all the series on both of them and there are so many discrepancies just by her alone! She really needs to quit lying and faking that dang voice! Also, she’s gonna throw her mom in everyone’s faces if they say anything that remotely reminds her of her mom if they are saying something she doesn’t like! She’s in need of a lot more therapy !

UGH. She desperately needs tons and tons of therapy. She also makes quick irrational decisions like a hormonal pre teen, like marrying Ryan so soon and then cheating on him with her ex Ken and then divorcing Ryan and now getting pregnant and even Ken said they will be getting DNA testing done. I feel so sorry for the child.
