Gypsy Rose Blanchard is keeping up with Kim Kardashian.
In fact, she had nothing but wonderful things to say about her recent meeting with the Kardashians star, explaining the duo actually had quite a lot to talk about, especially when it came to one of Kim's passion projects: prison and criminal justice reform.
"First of all, meeting Kim was a huge honor," Gypsy exclusively told E! News co-host Keltie Knight. "She's a really sweet woman and I really appreciate her taking the time to talk with me."
"We had a lot to talk about as far as prison reform goes," she continued. "I know that she's done some really amazing things with prison reform. And that's really close to my heart because I've been on that side of the fence." (For more from Gypsy, tune into to E! News tonight, May 30 at 11 p.m.)
After serving seven years for the 2015 murder of her mom Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard, Gypsy said she had a lot to discuss, adding it "went over really well."
And the 32-year-old—who will be sharing more about her life in the upcoming Lifetime docuseries Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up out June 3—was surprised to witness Kim's kindness firsthand.
"It was really eye-opening for me," she told E! News, "because you read the headlines, you think that you get a sense of who someone is."
She added, "But meeting her I'm like, ‘Wow, she's so down to earth.' And I didn't expect that."
And Kim's meeting with Gypsy—who was released from prison in December—is all part of the SKIMS founder's passion for criminal justice reform.
Kim explained to E! News in 2020 she feels she found her calling, noting, "I don't see how I could just say no to someone that really needs help if I know that I can help them."
As for Gypsy, she has been keeping busy since her release from prison. Keep reading for a look into her life now.
