Kaitlin has been waiting for this one since the beginning! The tragic story of Gypsy Rose and Dee Dee Blanchard (you decide who it's tragic for) is a wild ride, to say the least. Gypsy grew up having every ailment under the sun and her loving mother Dee Dee took care of her every need... or did she? With so many twists and turns, it's no wonder this story was adapted into the Hulu series "The Act".
