“She and I have privately talked a little bit, which has been really nice,” she told Variety.

Dispelling rumors of bad blood between them following Gypsy‘s assertion that she was never consulted nor compensated for The Act, Joey continued, “Having that private conversation with her was really lovely. We both know that there’s absolutely no ill will towards one another. I really appreciated that we got to say those things to each other that were just really sweet and supportive because people are stupid and people assume whatever they want, and people are just going to make up stuff because it’s funny to them.”
