The Story of 'The Act' And Woodmansee's Role
As the real story goes, Dee Dee Blanchard had victimized her daughter Gypsy Rose for several decades, making false claims about her chronic illness. She had confined Gypsy to a wheelchair telling everyone around her that her daughter could not walk.
Moreover, Dee Dee made her daughter take numerous medical tests and surgeries under the pretense of serious illnesses. But in fact, Gypsy did not need any medical treatment or a wheelchair as she was perfectly healthy and capable of using her legs to walk. Dee Dee continued to pretend and spread false facts about her daughter to be eligible for stipend from the state, donations, and other resources provided for welfare.
Dee Dee's lies continued to live until one day when Gypsy conspired to get rid of her mother by taking the help of her then online partner, Godejohn. According to their plane, he fatally stabbed Dee Dee with a sharp object leading to her death.
Although Woodmansee was not part of the murder, she gained everyone's attention as she was a friend to Gypsy. Moreover, she lived in Gypsy's neighborhood. After the incident was disclosed in the media, she told ABC News that Gypsy was not in the condition her mother portrayed.
"She would show interest in like different boys and try to ask me advice on like, you know, 'How do you approach them? How do you like kiss a boy?Gypsy just wanted to be a regular teen," she professed.
