Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Spotted Leaving L.A. Ahead of New Lifetime Reality Series Premiere

The famed victim of Munchausen by proxy, who was in L.A. to promote ‘Gypsy-Rose: Life After Lock Up,’ lives in Louisiana

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard has left Los Angeles after a busy visit to Hollywood.

On Saturday, May 4, the Gypsy-Rose: Life After Lock Up star was spotted departing Los Angeles International Airport by photographers.

Dressed casually in an oversized beige hoodie, jeans and black sunglasses, Blanchard, 32, left with a blue rolling suitcase, a carry-on bag with a butterfly design and a white purse as she waved goodbye.

The Munchausen by proxy victim, who lives in Louisiana, was visiting L.A. to promote her upcoming Lifetime reality series, which follows her life after her December 2023 release from prison.

Blanchard attended Lifetime's Television Academy for Your Consideration event on May 1 to promote the show. Speaking to PEOPLE during the FYC event, she said was enjoying her chance to travel to California.

"I'm just enjoying my time traveling," Blanchard said. "I don't get to travel very often because I am on parole, so I have to get permission from my [parole officer] to travel, so I'm just enjoying tonight."

Blanchard's trip to L.A. hasn't been all business. In a TikTok shared by beauty influencer and makeup artist Alexis Oakley, fans watched as she shopped at Sephora for the first time in her life.

After picking up products from brands like Makeup Forever, Kosas, NARS, Charlotte Tilbury and more, Oakley jokingly said that Blanchard was "an easy sell!"

"And then as social media began and how it always does, it turned negative. It started to have a negative effect on my mental health."
