Lindsay Clancy was on trial in Massachusetts after being accused of killing her and Patrick's children – Cora, Dawson, and Callan. One juror disagreed with the other 11 in her case, after several rounds of deliberation, forcing the judge to declare a mistrial. Ahead of this, Fox News had shared photos of Patrick and Rachel's outing.

Notably, this is the second time the two were pictured together amid the trial. The first time appeared to be a ‘tense exchange’ as captured by TMZ. However, this time, the duo appeared much more relaxed as smiles could be seen in the photos shared.
