Recalling a special moment from their early days of romance, Danes told Porter Magazine, “When we first started sorta-kinda-dating for real (ish), I had an ornament-making party for Christmas, and he helped organize it.

Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy’s relationship explained
Primetime Emmy-winning actress Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy’s relationship is “goals” for their fans. The duo met on the set of Evening in 2006, where they were part of an on-screen love triangle.
The timing was perfect for Danes to fall in love, as she was single—and she hadn’t been single for a while. Danes explained in a Marie Claire interview, “I was very recently single, and I had never been single before, so we were just friends for a while.”
The duo’s meeting also had the perfect backdrop. She shared that they met in Rhode Island when it was at its most “audaciously beautiful” in the fall. The actress confessed, “And there was one day when we were bicycling by the water and it was sparkly and idyllic, and I just had this dumb epiphany, like, ‘I’m really just happy.'”
Danes and Dancy got married three years after their first meeting. The couple welcomed their first baby in 2012. They announced the birth of their second baby in 2018. Later, Danes and Dancy’s sources revealed that the couple is expecting their third baby in 2023.
