Patrick Clancy’s new wife recalled her loved ones’ “worried” reactions when she began dating the grieving ex-husband of a woman who was infamous for killing their three young children.
Rachel Danis, an infertility specialist who tied the knot with Patrick Clancy in April, opened up about their love story while sitting beside her husband during his first interview with “60 Minutes” after Lindsay Clancy’s triple murder trial ended with a hung jury earlier this month.
When asked by CBS correspondent Ross Douthat how Danis’ inner circle initially responded to the news of their relationship, she hesitated while responding: “Everyone paused – um, understandably so.”
“I say everyone, I had told like a couple of close friends, and I think family members were picking up on it because they would ask what I’m doing that weekend or that evening and I would mention Pat. So people were catching on and I think people were worried,” Danis explained.
However, when asked how she quashed family members’ concerns, she told them of her happiness in the relationship.
“I would say and still say, for the first time, Sundays felt like Saturdays. So I didn’t have a reason to stop,” Danis recalled about the early days spent with Patrick Clancy after the pair first met while running in Central Park in January 2024.
“Life just got a lot calmer for me. And while I did have hesitations, you know, Pat was saying he wants the same things that I do,” she added.
Patrick Clancy moved to New York City seeking “anonymity” just months after returning to his home in Duxbury, Massachusetts, on Jan. 24, 2023, to find that his then-wife, Lindsay Clancy, had fatally strangled their three young children – Cora, 5; Dawson, 3; and 8-month-old Callan – and thrown herself out of a window in a botched suicide bid.
During the exclusive sit-down, which aired on Sunday, Danis and the dad revealed they’re starting a family and are excited to tell their future child about their slain siblings.
