"Gypsy deserves a white dress moment. I know every female deserves that. And Gypsy's already got the style of dress she wants. And it kind of shocked me," said Anderson.

"Somebody asked her that question the other day, and I was like, 'Wow, that was specific,' and she had it ready. So I wanna give her that moment," he added.

On December 28, 2023, Blanchard was released from prison after she served eight years of a 10-year sentence for the murder of her mother Clauddine 'Dee Dee' Blanchard.

In 2016, the 32-year-old who was a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy at the hands of Dee Dee pleaded guilty to murder for her role in the plot to kill her biological mother.
