As the court is aware, they’re divorced, he’s remarried, he has a family,” Lindsay’s defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, stated in court.
The couple got married in Central Park in April 2026.

Danis has openly discussed her own experiences with fertility. In September 2024, she appeared on the Fertility Forward podcast. “I remember when I first froze my eggs, I felt like, I mean, even sometimes still, I feel like this black sheep. I think for women, it’s just really hard,” she said. “We have so much pressure to balance career and personal growth, but like we’re riddled with this fertility stuff.”
Danis is currently engaged in various fundraising and charitable activities that Patrick has initiated following the tragic loss of his children, particularly The Heard Foundation, which he established alongside his sisters Erin and Laura in 2024.
“Born from profound loss and bound by love, the Heard Foundation was founded in memory of Cora, Dawson, and Callan Clancy,” states the charity’s website.
