Freed Gypsy Rose Blanchard is on her way home to Louisiana with her dream of meeting Taylor Swift at a Kansas City Chiefs game in tatters.
And DailyMail.com understands it was her parole officer who put the kibosh on her attending Sunday's game at Arrowhead Stadium as she was firmly told she had to get home as quickly as she can.
'There was no way she was ever going to be allowed to go to that game,' one source told DailyMail.com.
Gypsy, 32, and her husband Ryan Anderson, 37, drove away from the Airbnb they had rented in Overland Park, Kansas, for her first full night of freedom after she was released from prison in Chillicothe, Missouri, in the early hours of Thursday morning.

DailyMail.com understands it was her parole officer who put the kibosh on her attending Sunday's NFL game as Gypsy was firmly told she had to get home as soon as possible
They drove south on Route 69 – stopping at a McDonalds for a meal for themselves and the film crew which is recording her every move for a Lifetime documentary.
But they took a wrong turn and appeared to be heading toward Springfield, Missouri – the town Gypsy had lived with her mother Dee Dee until she persuaded her boyfriend to kill her in 2015 – perhaps to film for her show.
That was a false alarm and then they continued on towards Lake Charles, Louisiana, where Gypsy and Ryan will live.
Gypsy had said she wanted to go to game against the Cincinnati Bengals – and even dreamed that she might see – or even meet – Swift, whose boyfriend Travis Kelce plays for the Chiefs.
But now she will have to content herself on watching the game on television.
Despite being released three days after Christmas, the ex-con managed to celebrate with family and friends the night after she walked free.
Her dad Rod and stepmother Kristy were both on hand at a secret safehouse outside Kansas City on Thursday evening, less than 24 hours after her release from a Missouri prison, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Munchausen by proxy victim Gypsy was freed from custody Thursday morning after serving seven years for the murder of her abusive mom Clauddine 'Dee Dee' Blanchard in 2015.

Gypsy had previously said she wanted to go to game against the Cincinnati Bengals – and even dreamed that she might see – or even meet – Swift, whose boyfriend Travis Kelce plays for the Chiefs
Swift has been seen supporting new beau Travis Kelce at his games since the season kicked off
Her post-incarceration life kicked off with a night in a budget hotel with husband Ryan Anderson, followed by a trip to Off Broadway Shoe Warehouse – where she posed for DailyMail.com in new sneakers and giggled: 'I love them.'
Gypsy is now ready to put her years of incarceration behind her and begin post-prison life as an unlikely reality star.
Her to-do list includes a book launch and the filming a docuseries.
Gypsy's family gathered for an emotional Christmas reunion Thursday night at an Airbnb in Overland Park, Kansas, she rented with teacher-husband Ryan
But before that she enjoyed an emotional Christmas reunion Thursday night with her dad and stepmom Rod and Kristy Blanchard at an Airbnb rental in Overland Park where she was staying with teacher Ryan.
A handful of close friends arrived bearing gifts for their newly released gal pal while a TV production crew filmed Gypsy's every move.
In an interview last week Kristy mentioned how much Gypsy was looking forward to Christmas surrounded by family – even if Santa would have to wait an additional three days to pay her a visit.
'We're going to do Christmas. I've got a Christmas tree, I've got her so many gifts. I went overboard, actually,' Kristy told NewsNation.
'Oh, we're also doing a spa day … we're going to go get her pedicure, manicure, facial, haircut, colored if she wants, you know, the works, bring her shopping. She can't wait.'

Driving off in their white Cadillac sedan, the couple stopped at a McDonald's drive-thru south of Kansas City where they ordered food for themselves and the production crew.
On Friday Gypsy celebrated her freedom by taking to Instagram to post her first post-prison selfie.
The 32-year-old shared a mirror picture of herself smiling in a blue and white faded sweater and jeans with the caption 'First selfie of freedom!'
In the first hour of the image being posted Blanchard gathered more than 160,000 likes and thousands of messages of support.

Gypsy was snapped in public for the first time since her release from prison after checking out of a Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott in Chillicothe where she spent her first night of freedom
She was spotted leaving a Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott in Chillicothe, Missouri, on Thursday – where she had crashed overnight shortly after walking free from prison almost 12 hours earlier.
Wearing a distressed sweatshirt, jeans, and only socks on her feet, the ex-con was helped by her husband as she carried her belongings – including two plastic grocery bags full of snacks – to their silver Cadillac sedan, DailyMail.com photos show.
They then drove to a local mall where she bought two pairs of sneakers.
The couple left the $150-a-night hotel around 11.15am Thursday in a convoy of cars including producers and a camera crew that have been following the abuse victim around for their Lifetime show.
They had rigged up GoPro cameras inside the car to capture her reaction.
Hours earlier on Thursday, Ryan Scott Anderson, the teacher she married behind bars last year, was seen pulling into the Chillicothe Correctional Center in northern Missouri, to pick his wife up at 3:20am.
His Cadillac sedan, with a Bret 'the Hitman' Hart wrestling decal across the front license plate cover, emerged minutes later to whisk Gypsy away for her first night of freedom at the budget hotel.
The 32-year-old felon spent her childhood as a wheelchair-bound invalid after Dee Dee shaved her head, pumped her full of drugs and convinced the world she was suffering from leukemia and muscular dystrophy.
Their 'inseparable' bond ended when Gypsy burst free of her warped mom's control in 2015 by letting her besotted internet boyfriend Nicholas Godejohn creep into their Springfield, Missouri, home to stab 48-year-old Dee Dee to death.
Claudine 'Dee Dee' Blanchard convinced her daughter Gypsy Rose and others that she was suffering a variety of illnesses including leukemia and muscular dystrophy. The abuse continued for years, until Gypsy Rose ordered her mother's murder to 'escape'
Gypsy Rose Blanchard's first stop on Thursday was at an Off Broadway Shoe Warehouse in Liberty, just outside Kansas City, to buy some new shoes after leaving her hotel in socks
Gypsy was jailed for 10 years for the matricide but was granted early parole in September after friends and family begged authorities to take account of the cruel abuse and needless medical procedures she endured while being cynically paraded at charity events and fundraisers.
The network's cameras have already been following her every move as Gypsy enjoys her first few days of freedom.
Fans can look forward to more snippets on social media profiles set up prior to her release including a TikTok page - already boasting 400,000-plus followers - which describes her as a 'public figure/Speaker' and links to her new eBook, Released: Conversations on the Eve of Freedom.
Gypsy's media credits and prison interviews already include Dr Phil, Good Morning America and 20/20, while Hulu, Netflix and Lifetime have all aired TV dramas based on her ordeal.
She took part in the 2017 HBO documentary Mommy Dead and Dearest, and has an upcoming three-part docuseries, The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard, airing January 5 through 7 on Lifetime.
