Gypsy receives the **“Child of the Year”** award, a symbol of the carefully crafted image Dee Dee has built around her daughter.

About the series – The Act
The Act is a true-crime miniseries starring Patricia Arquette and Joey King, based on the shocking real-life story of Dee Dee Blanchard and her daughter, Gypsy Rose. For years, Dee Dee convinced doctors, neighbors, and even Gypsy herself that her daughter suffered from a long list of severe illnesses — leukemia, muscular dystrophy, neurological disorders — keeping her in a wheelchair, feeding her through a tube, and isolating her from the outside world. The truth, however, was far more disturbing: Gypsy was never actually sick. The series peels back the layers of one of the most infamous cases of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy in U.S. history, showing how that extreme control ultimately led to a shocking and tragic outcome.
