What does claire have in house of cards

The odds are Either way, it's clear that the president looks back on her life with regret. Ultimately, the baby's fatherhood is never clarified, and since Claire is still pregnant in the Episode 8 finale, it's anyone's guess as to what would have happened next. However, here's what audiences know: That Claire Hale successfully became the first female president, instituted a women-only cabinet, killed off anyone who stood in her way — in doing so arguably becoming just as ruthless as her late husband — and becoming pregnant during her tenure as Commander-in-Chief.

And while it's difficult to imagine Claire as a mother, her pregnancy allowed her to keep Frank's assets, which was perhaps the point all along. By Rebecca Patton. See All Health Relationships Self. Register Don't have an account? Claire Hale Underwood. History Talk 1. James K. Ulysses S.

Season 1. Season 2. Who helped Claire achieve her goal of becoming President, and who fell victim to her schemes along the way? Let's recap The first thing the Underwoods had to make sure of was that Will Conway didn't beat them in the election. With turnout looking worryingly low, they drummed up some fake terror threats in order to get the governors of a couple swing states to shut down the polls, resulting in a contested election.

With that, the election moved from the polls to the Capitol, with the House deciding the next President and the Senate deciding the next VP. Claire defeats General Brockhart to become Vice — but with neither Frank nor Conway able to muster enough votes to win the House, Claire becomes Acting President until the race is decided. When a truck carrying radioactive material goes missing, Acting President Claire is locked in an underground bunker, but Doug quickly uncovers that the entire thing was engineered by Brockhart as an attempted coup to remove the Underwoods from office.

The contested election puts Conway under severe strain, resulting in a breakdown when he screams at a pair of pilots for refusing to let him fly a plane. Even in a show known for its breakneck twists and turns, few saw that surprise coming.

But whose baby is it? Could Frank really be the father? How did that happen if he and Claire had been estranged for months before he died in the White House?
