Gypsy-Rose Blanchard is open to sharing her story with her daughter.

The mom-to-be, 33, joined Nick Viall, 44, on his podcast The Viall Files earlier this week, sharing that when she welcomes her baby girl, she plans on eventually sharing her entire story.

Gypsy-Rose, who spent eight years in prison for her role in the murder of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, says that telling her daughter about her journey has been on the "forefront" of her mind ever since she found out she is expecting her first baby with boyfriend Ken Urker.

"That conversation is going to come up someday and how do I want to address that, how do I want to handle that?" she says on the podcast. "And I feel like when she is of the right age to understand, we are going to sit her down together."

Adding that she'll have her dad and stepmom's support as well, Gypsy-Rose explains she wants to share her story with her daughter so she'll understand more about the choices she's made

"So with that being said, with love and care and consideration, I mean we have a long time to prepare for that, to know what words need to be said," adds Gypsy-Rose.

The former inmate and victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy says that sharing her story with her future daughter is one of the reasons why she wanted to write her book, My Time to Stand: A Memoir.

"Because she could read it for herself and see that I’m not this monster, I’m not the person that they say on social media. I’m not any of those things," Gypsy-Rose says. "My memoir is a true form of my soul and everything that I had been through. So I am taking all of these steps to make sure that she has every source of information she needs from the right places."

In addition to her memoir, Gypsy-Rose says she'd like her daughter to watch the documentary made about her if she wants.

"I mean I fully encourage looking at someone’s life in the most truest form, so I’m in support of the documentary. So if she wants to watch my documentary, I’ll let her when she’s old enough," Gypsy-Rose says.

"And reading my book. And talking to us. I’m an open book, he’s an open book. Any questions that she has, we want her to feel comfortable to ask us."
