Lindsay Clancy Family Friend Says Patrick Interview Was ‘Missed Opportunity’
Brittany Romano says Patrick Clancy's "60 Minutes" interview missed key questions and overlooked postpartum psychosis.
A childhood friend of Lindsay Clancy expressed disappointment that Patrick Clancy's 60 Minutes interview was a "missed opportunity" to raise awareness about postpartum psychosis and mental health. Brittany Romano, who grew up on the same street as Clancy, said the interview did not address key questions and did not provide new information.
Patrick Clancy spoke about his grief, forgiveness, and the impact of losing his three children, reiterating that his ex-wife's actions were due to severe mental illness. He also revealed struggling with suicidal thoughts and a panic attack during the trial. Romano felt the interview missed opportunities to discuss the malpractice lawsuit, the timeline of the night, and why Clancy was speaking so soon before the retrial hearing.
She also expressed disappointment in Clancy's choice to bring his new wife, Rachel Danis, to the interview, which she felt was disjointed and not helpful in shining a spotlight on postpartum mental health. Romano emphasized that the focus should be on raising awareness of postnatal mental illness and supporting Clancy in his grieving process.
