Rachel Danis backs Patrick Clancy, defends their love story
In a clip, which was teased on the network Friday morning, Rachel Danis said, “I don’t understand how the story’s been so twisted. But I would hope people know that Pat is, as I said before, the most selfless father and supportive partner.”
She additionally defended herself against those people who have criticized their love story.

Lindsay Clancy trial
Upon his return to his Massachusetts residence in 2023, Patrick discovered that Lindsay had suffocated their three children—Cora, five; Dawson, three; and Callan, eight months old.
Lindsay’s seven-week homicide trial concluded in a mistrial on September 4th following the jury’s inability to achieve consensus after seven days of deliberative proceedings.
Her legal counsel contended that she warranted acquittal on the grounds of insanity. Ten of the eleven jurors concurred that she was experiencing acute postpartum psychosis — however, one dissenting juror prevented the panel from attaining unanimity.
During the initial proceedings, Patrick Clancy informed the jury that his former spouse had persistently sought professional assistance for her deteriorating mental health condition preceding the tragic events, and he recounted the distressing discovery of finding her in a state of partial paralysis in the yard of their Duxbury residence following her jump from a second-floor window during an unsuccessful suicide attempt.
During the courtroom proceedings, a 911 recording was presented, documenting the father’s screams upon discovering his children in an unresponsive state with exercise bands around their necks in the basement.
