00:40I know it's still gonna be a long journey ahead,
00:44but I'm up for it.
00:46I know that there are gonna be people
00:50that feel like I'm not ready to be a mother,
00:54and I don't know if anyone's really ready
00:56to become a mother.
00:58What reservations, if any,
00:59do you have about having children someday
01:01after considering what you've experienced
01:04in your own childhood?
01:05I don't have any reservations.
01:07The mama-to-be getting emotional
01:09as she reflects on her own upbringing
01:11as she prepares to welcome her little one.
01:13Suddenly, it's not about you.
01:16It's not about anything
01:19other than the tiny little life that's inside you,
01:24and that you have to make sure that you protect,
01:27you love, you take care of,
01:29and all of the things that I wished I could've had
01:35when I was little.
01:38And I just wanna be a good mother for my child.
01:42I wanna be everything my mother wasn't.
01:45Gypsy and Ken might not have planned their new addition,
01:48but they're both ready to step up as parents.
01:51It doesn't matter what we go through, him and I.
01:54Whatever we face, we'll face it together.
02:00Because we have a baby now.
02:04We have something that's bigger than either one of us.
02:08So whatever comes our way, we're gonna stick together.
02:12We're not breaking because we are a family now.
02:16The news comes just over three months
02:18after Gypsy announced her split from husband, Ryan Anderson.
02:21Rekindling her romance with former fiance, Ken,
02:25I'm blindsided about how fast the process went.
02:28I am blindsided about how fast it was like,
02:32I'm gonna stay with my parents for the weekend,
02:33and then it's, I'm never coming back.
02:35So it's one of those where it was just shocking
02:38how fast it went from this to that,
02:41to now I'm with Ken and I'm in love with him.
02:45As for whether there'll be wedding bells
02:47in the couple's future.
02:48Are you having conversations
02:50about maybe taking that next step?
02:52Yeah, I think those conversations
02:53are fun to have, but nothing seriously laid out.
02:59It's just kind of like, oh, this would be cute.
03:00You know, X, Y, Z, when we X, Y, Z.
03:04Yeah, yeah, of course.
03:05We're having those fun conversations.
03:07Okay, so if you saw,
03:09is there like a timeline that you envision?
03:12No, I mean, I think that, you know,
03:14I am the kind of girl that don't tell me
03:17just because we're in love,
03:19I don't wanna know what your plans are
03:22if you're gonna propose, don't tell me, just do it.
03:25You just wanna be surprised.
03:27Yeah, I wanna be surprised.
03:28So those are, you know, those are,
03:30that's in his hands right now.
03:32Congrats to Gypsy and Ken on their growing family.
03:35All that matters is making sure that I'm healthy,
