Currently, the actress is pregnant with her third child. Claire and Dancy already have two sons together, 10-year-old Cyrus “Michael Christopher” and 4-year-old “Rowan”. The couple wed in a quiet ceremony held in France in September 2009 after first meeting while filming the movie Evening in Newport, Rhode Island in 2006.
When Danes became pregnant with her second son in 2018, she was looking forward to experiencing motherhood again and said at a Homeland FYC event, “Pretty soon I get to retire for a little time and just be pregnant, which I look after too.” She also added, “It feels like a very luxury. When I was pregnant with my first son, I worked until I was in my eighth month, so this feels like a huge gift, to have a chance to kick my feet up a little bit.” In 2015, she also told People how much she was loving getting to raise her eldest son Cyrus on the set of the show, gushing, “Motherhood is amazing.” She added, “He says, ‘Action!’ He’s a real set baby. It’s really sweet. He loves the [show’s operations room] because of all the lights. It’s a great environment for a kid. It’s the circus!”
This happy news comes after a big professional year for Claire. One month before, she was nominated for a Golden Globe as the best supporting actress in a limited series category for her performance in Fleishman Is in Trouble.
