Get ready for a tell-all to rival all tell-alls! Chelsea and writer Danielle Henderson dive into the 1987 autobiography of Oscar-winning actress Patty Duke, who you might know from Valley of the Dolls, The Patty Duke Show, “The Miracle Worker,” or as Sean Astin's mom! From a horrifying mom-ager who wasn't her actual mom, to her romances with Hollywood nepo babies Desi Arnaz Jr. and Frank Sinatra Jr., this book is a wild, wild ride!
