Joey Fatone Opens Up About His Daughter With Autism says the HuffPo

For the first time, singer and actor Joey Fatone has opened up about what it’s like to have a child with autism.

Fatone and his 7-year-old daughter, Kloey, appeared on USA Network’s “Big Star Little Star,” a game show where celebrities and their kids compete against other famous families.
