The new Lifetime docuseries The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard is scheduled to premiere Friday, Jan. 5 at 8/7c.

Ever since her release from prison in late December, Gypsy Rose Blanchard has received overwhelming attention on social media earring nicknames from her online community of fans such as “queen” and “mother.”

Whether one empathizes with the convicted felon or not, everyone is on the edge of their seats to hear what prison was like for Gypsy in her own words, and the new Lifetime docuseries sets out to do just this.

“The six-hour special features unprecedented access to Gypsy Rose Blanchard, a victim of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy who suffered horrific abuse and made national headlines for her role in her mother’s violent murder… [Gypsy] is finally ready to tell her truth before she becomes a free woman for the first time in her life,” the docuseries description states.
