@@jennamarienumber3 she tried to escape and was chained to the bed. You wanna call that the “star”? That is genuinely a f****d way of thinking about it. She was a “guinea pig”, if you wanna put it into terms like that. Poked and prodded, sliced open, eyes watching 24/7 to see what is happening. We know she plotted to murder her mom, nobody is forgetting that. People are happy that she killed her abuser, people believe she didn’t deserve jail. At least that’s what I’m getting from tiktok and some of the interviews. I’m very happy for her, I’m not a fan. She already seems peeved with people how they are treating her husband.

[@felinemoonchild]

I feel bad for her, because I think this is all going to end badly. She has very little in the way of education and zero marketable skills, so I don't blame her for writing a book and doing movie deals, or documentaries or whatever. The interviews she's doing is part of the press tour to promote those things, she's not just attention-seeking. But as others have said, let her breathe. The American prison system doesn't set you up for success after your sentence. I'm hoping whatever money she's making is going towards learning a trade or somehow providing for herself in the future and being a contributing member of society. At best, all of this is going to just blow over and people will move onto something else in a few weeks. At worst, people will turn on her bc the public is fickle, and she'll have to psychologically deal with that on top of all of her other issues.

@felinemoonchild Me too! I, unfortunately, do not see the marriage lasting. But I also can not understand meeting someone while they are in prison. Maybe bc I've worked in a prison as an officer and an RN. Most female inmates have a very abusive and/ or controlling past in all types of ways. For some reason, you can tell when someone is close to release or probation bc they have a similar way they carry themselves and walk, etc. And the same goes for what they say as well. All of that combined, I have to wonder what type of man is searching for that? Sir, you said you heard her story and watched about it TV and really really liked/ wanted to meet her. The pics and stuff online is when her mother dressed her like a little girl even tho she was a grown woman! I need it to make sense. You know that she's been in one type of prison or another her whole life but still wants to push he legal marriage through? Why the rush, even after she told you maybe she's not ready. Give her time to develop a relationship with her family. She was literally freaking out in a car bc it's been so long. It feels very much like predator vibes, you know?

I mean, she’s met her “idols” before, when her and her mother were in the midst of their medical/ charity grift- I say THEY were doing THEIR grift, because without Gypsy cooperating, for whatever reason, the whole “sick little girl act”, medical frauds, and charity scams that DeeDee devised would not have worked, or proven nearly as lucrative and advantageous for them. No one would have ever believed DeeDee about Gypsy’s fictitious ailments had Gypsy not been an amazing actress and played her part exceptionally well. Anyhow, she met Miranda lambert & Blake Sheldon, was taken to a concert for them with complete VIP/ backstage access (several times) & was even given a check for thousands of dollars from Miranda Lambert. That whole thing was set up by make a wish or some other foundation, due to their ongoing lies about the struggle with her “deteriorating health”. I mean, in one way or another, Gypsy has always been a public figure, given speeches, was a guest of honor at events, and got to meet celebrities that she admired. It isn’t far fetched for her to believe that she may just get to meet more people that she idolizes or admires… especially since she’s far more famous now than she was before. What Gypsy went through with her mother is a horrible story, (though, after reading through the information on her case and listening to Gypsy’s own, recent interviews, where she has relayed her various first-hand accounts, to different interviewers, of the exact same abusive incidents, while repeatedly changing key points to be more brutal and abusive, from one host to the next, I do get the feeling that there are multiple parts of her story that may be exaggerated- namely, the parts that she has changed many times). Regardless, it’s awful that her mother groomed her into living the life of a massive medical scam, for some sick need for attention and all the perks it offered to provide.

I went to university in the same city in Missouri where all this happened! My friend used to work at Build-a-Bear in the mall, where Gypsy Rose and her mom would occasionally come in. He said nobody would've suspected anything was wrong. But I remember when the mom was killed, and we were all scared that a murderer was on the loose. I agree that the obsession and celebrity-treatment of her is VERY weird and creepy. Imagine if we glorified all victims of crimes (as she was a victim of her mother), or criminals (as she was guilty of being a part of the murder plot). That's messed up, and I worry about the future of the world.

[@kannakanina6552]

As someone negatively impacted by the absolutely ridiculous media frenzy that is ‘True crime’ culture, I feel concerned that someone with as little life experience being free as Gypsy does is getting this much media attention. I feel like having cameras constantly shoved in your face and people she has NEVER even MET wanting your attention would be a lot for anyone, let alone someone who has spent their whole life either being tortured, imprisoned or both. I truly hope that she has a good therapist. The human mind takes time to adjust to social media being as relentless and overwhelming as it certainly is about ANYONE it fixates on. The impact of media on narrative identity can be extremely traumatic in its own right for anyone, but especially for those of us with trauma.

[@JustAFace_InTheCrowd]

I honestly wish her the best. I studied psychology and from my viewpoint- while this was a chaotic event and a very hard topic to touch…. But she wasn’t mentally capable to really understand fully how to handle the situation. Yes she should do time- but no, we shouldn’t hate her or vilify her. When people go through what she did, they are mentally stunted. Not only was her mom making her pretend that she was sick, but by doing so, it made her “mentally disabled” in a sense (from what I could gather, she seemed to have the mind of someone 7-11). Yes she knew what she did was wrong, but because of how her mother kept her (away from so much of the world), she didn’t know what to do and thought that it was her only option (kids are impulsive, and she was mentally a child). Children also have this thing called “concrete operational thinking.” Concrete operational thinking is a mindset where children of a certain age basically think this way: “It always has been, it still is, and it always will be- there is no change, things are infinite.” For some reason, for the most part, children are incapable of changing their opinions of things (until they get older). So she could have very well thought her life would always be that way. Like I said- I went to college for this. Child criminal psychology to be specific. I didn’t finish or get a degree, but not because I was bad. I was an honor student, with 7 years of classes. I just wasn’t right for the job… Wasn’t about it once I got further in. But just for full disclaimer, I figured I’d mention that. (Gypsy, if you happen to read this, girl- it’s going to be okay. ❤)

[@hotpinkcrayolas]

So I'm half way through. It's like a prequel biography. Transcripts of phone calls with one of the coauthors that explain everything that went on and some of her art work, then chunks of explaining in 'her' writing (to say she wasn't educated as a child and only caught up in prison I am sure the other coauthor did indeed ghost write or at least heavily edit a lot of those passages because they're better written that you would expect). She's apparently writing a longer memoire to release later in the year. So part of me feels a bit cynical about the book as a bit of a cash in, but most of me can't blame her for that honestly! It's interesting so far anyway, and a quick read x

Thanks for making this content, Robert! Let me preface by saying that I absolutely feel sympathy for her as the victim of horrible abuse by her own mother. I also understand that she wants to tell her story (and she surely needs the money) and I understand ppl wanting to hear it. However, my husband and I thought we were going crazy by feeling gross and put off about all of this notoriety GR was receiving and all of the “fame”. It felt really gross, tacky and inappropriate for the situation. She’s already married before leaving prison and going on a big media blitz. Gypsy should take it way more slowly. I don’t understand the weird stanning at all either or what it says about us as people. The current situation is just - unsettling and when she’s no longer in the spotlight I’m glad she’ll have the time and money to get some much needed therapy. I’m also worried.

[@yvettebasson1243]

This case just blows my mind. All aspects of it.

[@brookedits_1]

I feel so bad for her :( she deserved so much better 💕

[@Goopiterian]

omg that one kid talking about GRB's release like a "career pivot"… PIVOT? 🧐 Robert, your takes are so real. And your title card theme SLAPS 🕺

[@MartaVelez0108]

Yeah, I would have preferred my privacy, had I been in her situation. And, I’d probably have hired a body guard or something. Lots of weird people out there. She needs space to adapt back into her life outside of prison, but also her situation with her mom and her crimes.

[@jmillar71110]

This makes me feel quite sorry for her tbh. She never got to be a normal kid, a normal teenager and now people aren't letting her breathe and try to be a normal adult. This will be the first she's ever had proper freedom and she will need time to adjust.

[@sheanajackson4831]

I agree people should leave her alone. Poor girl just wants to live a normal life after all she's been through. I really hope media and everyone else looking to interfere with her life just back off. Leave her alone.

[@DieselGlori]

Your content enriches my life in the simplest way and your heartfelt chuckles at the absurdity of it all resonate with me lol

[@SheilaMarguerite]

That's an incredibly weird thing for ppl to be so obsessed about...

[@bringjoy73]

Gypsy has said herself in multiple interviews that she regrets she k-ed her mom, that she understands why she was sent to jail and that she understands her situation could’ve been dealt with in another way, as in like yk not killing someone’s, maybe by confronting her mom, which is ofc only something I can say because I’ve never been in a situation where so volatile as Gypsy’s so stating how she should’ve handled it is not what I’ll do, or what anyone should do. But I think it’s so fucking brave and takes so much courage for Gypsy to have had the chance to learn and grow, not only by understanding the medical severity of her mom and herself, but also that she understands the reason she went to jail and has come to terms with it, at least how she portrays her sentiments to the public, but it takes so much power and bravery to take a step back and grow, especially in her situation, which she didn’t have to show remorse if she wanted, I’m sure most people wouldn’t care cuz of the hype around her, but to have the empathy and understanding of the situation, your abuser mom nonetheless, definitely shows that gypsy has been through major changes and growth. I don’t really appreciate people online basically telling a person everything that they have overcome to make peace with themselves and strive for a better life to basically throw it all away for what? Memes on tiktok? Throwing trendy phrases at her? Making fun or light or the situation when the women literally stepped into the real world for the first time in 5+ years for something that she thinks is wrong? Just for people to get mad or turn their backs on her when something happens only because people are always looking for the next trendy case and person, it’s a huge bandwagon and Gypsy doesn’t deserve to be so frugal

[@KristenHarmala]

Gypsy did try at one point to escape, but she was brought back to her mother after the cops found her and Dee Dee told everyone that Gypsy was mentally incompetent and had gotten legal power of attorney over her. Dee Dee even tied her daughter to a bed, beat her and threatened to kill her if she ever tried to run away again... The cops would not have believed anything Gypsy said to them due to Dee Dee's manipulation. Someone like Dee Dee CANNOT be reasoned with. Anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves. Regarding the obsessed "fans", I am almost 27 and I don't understand, nor have I ever understood these "YAS Queens", Instagram/TikTok obsessed people and literally only use social media for keeping in touch with people/ posting artwork... Call me an old soul. Gypsy deserves a peaceful life, and these people should just back off, stop projecting their little fantasies onto her and leave her be.

[@KitKat0nly]

She went from being abised by a relative to being abused by the media, just like Britney Spears. That's so unfair. People should be able to be fully free and live their lifes without being scrutinised. I'm also worried about her mental health. She needs to take care of and focus on herself. "Fans" are selfish

[@cathrynanderson9524]

❤ love hearing your opinion on this story... I agree with you 💯. She didn't seek out fame. I watch a lot of true Crime and every time I'm left thinking murder is never the only option. I know the world is broken; and many systems, especially those in place to provide protection to victims, often fail. But the fact that so many people are okay with taking the life of another is disturbing.

[@thaibrows]

honestly, people’s weird obsession with her rubs me in the similar, wrong way as people’s weird obsessions with true crime in general. treating these people and situations like entertainment, a spectacle, despite the fact that very real, horrific things happened is gross and voyeuristic 🤢

[@meirin5316]

i like true crime videos. but only ones that take the situation serious. some make me cry for hours tho

[@pogpogpurinn]

The fact there were things like tv shows/movies based on her story probably didnt help

[@magical571]

look. curiosity is inherent to humanity, like it or not. don't act like it's beneath you lol. making memes about here right as this is happening though? while she is alive and out there and open to reading it, now that's just wanting to do a diservice to her mental health. but curiosity about true crime? muh dude. what age are you? there's nothing wrong with it. I, myself, learn a lot about personality profiles from different takes on cases, and coming from a shitty family and relationship myself, i can learn a thing or too about red flags for example. i can't speak for everyone, but really, let's not pretend that if not for learning purposes, it's in many people's nature to at least stare at a fire. unavoidable.

[@unrealmemories1351]

Personally I don't watch true crime for entertainment, I watch it to learn things about human psychology and what I'm getting into because I'm probably going back to school for something related to criminal justice.

[@abigailxmary]

​@@magical571theres an argument for both sides tbh. A lot of true crime content creators are distasteful and disrespectful, in my opinion, people also get weirdly obsessed with watching it. On the other hand, it can really help people to become a lot more aware of the people around them and help them identify certain patterns of behaviour as dangerous. I used to watch certain true crime creators (not the likes of danielle kirsty, bailey sarian or stephanie harlowe who i think are just pure disrespectful) but i realised around 2020 that it was making my anxious tendencies worse and also made me slightly paranoid/hypervigilant when around strangers. It can be so helpful from a psychology point of view, but it can also spiral into something extremely unhealthy.

[@nicholasbrown5896]

I think for me, the obsession with her and her case and her release from prison has nothing to do with who she was and is and her trauma and her as a person. Instead, it has more to do with making her a "character". There's so much going on in the world politically and health wise right now and the fact that people are "Stan Twitter"-ing this woman who went through so much and probably just wants to live a chill life is honestly twisted asf. The depth of the parasocial relationship here is so crazy. It feels like the FreeBrittney Movement where many people pushed the termination of Brittney's conservatorship, not because they care about her but because it was a popular hashtag and a popular thing to say.

[@figblossomdesigns]

I think people getting talking about medical child abuse especially now with the Maya Kowalski case going on would be really helpful! Especially since in the USA child abuse reporting systems could really be impacted by the family winning the case against the hospital in the Maya case - which would mean mandated reporters can face felony charges for not reporting suspected abuse but if they do report it they can face legal action by the family - this would really impact a lot of kids in tough situations who need help, so Gypsy talking about her experience and shining light on this will make people think more on this than what they might have seen in the netflix doc. I do think some people on social media are making too many jokes or taking advantage of her situation for content that is rude and putting pressure on her to perform for social media, but hopefully she can use her platform to help reduce medical child abuse and help other kids in that situation ❤

[@colleensibayan3817]

I feel like we are just setting her up for failure. Kinda like how child stars are rarely ok as they grow up. Her mother already set her up with the insane childhood and now here she is just trying to acclimate to normal life and press won’t even let her do that. I really hope her husband and others in her life are able to shield her from the worst of it and allow her to just live🥺

[@elin_]

I just hope that she has gotten and will continue to get good professional help to process her past.

[@Kaidh9080]

When he said yaaassss mama in lost it 😂😂😂… but yeah Robert I agree with you on this one it is a little weird people are sickly obsessed with her but she has been through a lot and I wish people will leave her alone I feel like she might digress from all the progress she made in jail due to all of the publicity surrounding her

People are taking advantage of her. She posted a video saying she finally got an ‘I❤️NY’ top which was on her bucket list. Thats where she is right now. People are obsessing over her and it will overstimulate and overwhelm her eventually.

[@abigailxmary]

To think shes so excited about getting something so simple and readily available is so incredibly saddening, like just imagine the simple act of buying a tshirt genuinely being one of your bucket list goals, thats so upsetting to think about.

[@molliep97]

[@iEGeek]

This is really odd to me, how does one even go about thinking they're doing her a favour by putting her into the limelight after all she had to go through plus prison? She herself is acknowledging that what she did was wrong and a crime, but what is with all this obsession and saying she is doing something right? Let her live a normal quiet life, let her decide how she wants to do things in her life. It's almost sickening how they're obsessing over her.

[@meganconway3374]

When I first heard and learned about gypsy's case, I wanted to say it was a year or 2 after the case was closed. While in prison, she said she enjoys the freedom she have obtained after escaping from her own mom. She regrets having her mother murder, even tho at the time she thought that was the only way to escape for her. I hope she enjoys even more of the freedoms life has to offer outside of pri.

[@queendivaamy]

Hi Robert! I have been watching a ton of interviews with her and I am so impressed with her maturity and perspective.

[@aleigha9141]

I feel so bad for what Gypsy Rose went through, the abuse her mother inflicted on her. If people would actually stop and take just a moment to listen to HER and to do a bit of research instead of creating a narrative for her, they would find out that she realizes the severity of what she did. She realizes her mother was very mentally ill, even though at the time of the murder she didn’t feel like she had other options. She even says she misses her mother. Yes, she is free from the abuse and thank God for that, but she also has to live with what she has done, and for that she is very remorseful. She has said that inside of prison was the first time she felt free to make decisions and to make friends 😳 but no amount of time inside or outside of prison can take away the thoughts in her head or the reality of her situation. I agree that people need to leave her alone. Let her have some space and time to just BE. To get to know herself and to become acclimated to the world that she has never really known. I’ve also read that The Act isn’t really all that factual. I don’t know for sure. I am interested in what Gypsy Rose herself has to say, so I will be watching her Lifetime special. I wish her the best and I hope she is doing well ❤️ I have to say I did have to pause the video and giggle when you said Gypsy Rose Lee and then covered your mouth and corrected yourself 😆 I’m older and know who that is and what she’s about 😂 it was too funny.

I do still believe that if she hadn't asked her then bf to get rid of her mother then Gypsy Rose would have died instead. She has had such a devastating and tragic life. Social media has seemingly ruined people's common decency, they're even using photos of her as a child in those throat traps which is disgusting! Since she's been ordered to leave the state it's probably going to be easier for her to disappear somewhere and take time to adjust. I hope she can live out of the spotlight tbh

[@thatsadanarang]

The all matter stinks from the bottom… What her mother did Fuqd up What she did, even more, fuqd up I mean, she convinced someone to do something really awful… just like her mother convinced or forced her (we don't know) to do something really awful… and now youngsters are idolizing her?! How fuqd up is that?! That's crazy… I would be really careful idolizing her, giving her all of this “attention”… or believing anything comes out of her mouth… does anybody see this? She might be following just her mother's footsteps... Telling a bunch of lies in her book on TV or whatever to keep on getting people’s ATTENTION… She already manipulated someone into committing murder… murder is murder no excuses because you were the victim of abuse… there are social services even in the US… she proved to be clever enough (in the wrong way), she could've find some other way to break her cage instead of plotting murder, but of course, understandably, she didn't have the mental tools to navigate reality very well, since she has been living a lie for most of her life… She doesn't need a manager… she needs time and space and lots of therapy to recover from what she did and from a lifetime of abuse

It's still weird to me that she's out balling awhile her boyfriend remains stuck in jail tbh, especially since I heard somewhere he had some sort of developmental issues..? Everyone treats her like a media star for "defeating"/getting rid of her mother, but the man who actually did it all is somehow completely forgotten behind bars for the rest of his life. Weirds me out, idk. People treat her both like a justified murderer and an innocent, and clap for her starting her new life, and there's this whole other person in the case no one talks about.

I think it's strange how little she cares for the young man. She manipulated into killing for her. Granted he was f***** up in the head, but since she's been out gypsy Rose has proven herself to be very, very smart and very articulate. Meanwhile this guy is going back to get a retrial because of diminished mental capacity. In a recent interview she said " He's being punished for what he did and I'm being punished for what I did" if that's not a cop out if I ever heard one. She's manipulating everyone.

[@andreashields6983]

If you think about it her whole childhood was about attention. I’m not ignoring the horrible abuse but she received so much attention bc she was “ill”. I think that’s why she soaking up now bc she’s use to the attention & craves it.

I'm new to this case and the "boyfriend killed her mother for her but she got married to another guy while in prison" part is adds another layer of she must have a super disfunctional idea of what being loved is.
