In an interview with TMZ, Blanchard explained how she handled fan mail while in prison.

“It was nice to have the support and I met a few friends that way. I met Ken that way,” she said about her partner and the father of her child, Ken Urker.

She was then asked if she could provide any cautionary tales for Mangione.

“There’s a lot of weirdos out there. A lot of people were like, ‘I’m gonna marry you someday,’” she said. “Ignore them.”

She explained Urker was different because he was “genuine” and “wasn’t trying to initiate a relationship.”

Mangione is currently incarcerated for the alleged murder of Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, whom Mangione is accused of fatally shooting in New York City on Dec. 4, 2024.

Mangione has been hit with a total of 20 federal and state charges in Pennsylvania and New York. In late December, supporters showed up outside a New York courthouse to chant "Free Luigi."

Blanchard spent eight years in prison after she was convicted of second-degree murder for the death of her mother.

During that time, she met and became engaged to marry Urker, though the engagement was called off. She and Urker later rekindled their romance and welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Aurora, in December.
