The Act Star Joey King Speaks Out On Gypsy Rose’s Pregnancy
Joey King earned rave reviews for her portrayal of Gypsy Rose Blanchard in Hulu’s The Act. She played Gypsy from a young age up until her sentencing. Fans could not believe how she transformed herself from the voice to shaving her head:
- I think she did an excellent job playing gypsy. Also I loved the actress who played the mother. I love hearing her talk.
- as someone who cant stand joey king (for honestly no good reason) she did phenomenal as Gypsy. i cant imagine anyone else playing the role besides Gypsy herself
- I honestly can’t picture another actress portraying her.
- She really did look like Gypsy
Joey was even nominated for an Emmy and Golden Globe for her portrayal of Gypsy. Alongside Patricia Arquette, who played Dee Dee Blanchard, the two were an unstoppable team. Initially, Gypsy did not care to watch much of The Act but when she was released from prison, things changed. The limited series ended with her sentencing as it came out in 2019. She was supposed to spend a decade behind bars but ultimately only served 85% of her time so she was released in December 2023.

After she got out and was headed to Los Angeles for a press trip, Gypsy wanted to link up with Joey King. The two had chatted briefly via DM but that was it. Gypsy’s life has changed so much in the five years since The Act came out, she is even pregnant. So, what does Joey think about all of this? According to E! News, Joey is very happy:
“I love children and I’m very happy for her. I just think it’s amazing. It’s so special.”
A New Chapter
Joey King seemingly has not been offered a follow-up to The Act as Gypsy Rose Blanchard is all about reality. She did an interview while still in prison and it followed her after she was released. Gypsy then found herself in a marriage she was not happy with so she left and reconnected with her old fiance, Ken Urker. The two quickly fell back into the swing of things and before they knew it were expecting a baby. Their baby girl is due in January 2025.
