Dee Dee Blanchard had a chilling interaction with daughter Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, right before she was murdered by him in 2015.

“I heard screaming,” Gypsy Rose recalled on Paul C Brunson’s podcast, “We Need to Talk,” on Tuesday. “It was a horrible sound. It was screaming. It was shock.”

She added, “I almost think I heard ‘Who are you?’ was asked.”

The 34-year-old said transcripts of Godejohn’s testimony and his conversations with other inmates in jail confirmed Dee Dee asked him who he was.

“And he responded, ‘I am death,'” Gypsy Rose shared. “So I do know that was probably what I heard.”

Dee Dee was stabbed to death on June 10, 2015, by Gypsy Rose’s then-boyfriend in a plan concocted by the two.

Dee Dee suffered from Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a psychological disorder in which parents make up sicknesses or cause real symptoms to make their child appear ill.

Gypsy Rose served eight years in prison before she was released in December 2023, while Godejohn, 37, is serving a life sentence.

On the podcast, Gypsy Rose, who was hiding in the bathroom while Godejohn murdered Dee, revealed her mom called out her name during the stabbing.

“I felt like I wanted to go and help her, but I was terrified at the same time,” she explained. “Like my body was paralyzed. I couldn’t move. And I was so focused and trying to breathe and block it out.”

“I felt like I wanted to go and help her, but I was terrified at the same time,” Gypsy Rose said.

Gypsy Rose said she heard Dee Dee yell out “one sharp scream” before there was silence, at which point she knew her mother was dead.

Godejohn then knocked on the bathroom door for Gypsy Rose to come out.

“I don’t think he said anything. He had cut his finger. And so he wanted me to bandage him up,” Gypsy Rose recalled.

The internet star noted she was “completely naked” in the moment because that’s what Godejohn wanted.

“And he wanted me to hug him,” she continued. “So there was this sort of embrace where I was in a state of shock. But I couldn’t believe what happened.”

When Gypsy Rose completed her parole in June 2025, she described Godejohn as a “deeply disturbed man” in a since-deleted Instagram post.

“But he also knew the difference between right and wrong,” she said at the time. “Regardless of my role of unintentional manipulation… Nicholas made the decision to move forward with that night.”

“That was a choice,” she added, “and he is not exempt from the consequences of that choice.”

Gypsy Rose — who welcomed daughter Aurora with boyfriend Ken Urker in December 2024 — also swore in her post that she had “taken accountability” for her role in her mother’s murder.

 “And now, I take back my life,” she wrote. “When I accepted my sentence, I accepted the weight of my choices. I served my time. I don’t owe the past anything more.”
