The convicted murderer reportedly applied for a marriage license to marry a woman named Lizzie Henderson, according to the Daily Mail. Henderson is a 39-year-old realtor from Ohio, but has moved to Wisconsin to be closer to Watts.
The nature of the murders was gruesome, yet Henderson reportedly visited Watts in prison 20 times last year. Not only that, she visited him on Christmas Day in 2024. Furthermore, she was seen making out with the alleged born-again Christian in prison.
“How things began is between me, him and God,” she said.
Chris Murdered His Wife And Children
Watts is currently serving five consecutive life sentences after pleading guilty to the murder of his pregnant wife, Shanann Watts , in 2018. In addition to murdering his pregnant wife and unborn child, Watts also murdered their daughters — 3-year-old Celeste and 4-year-old Bella. At first, the killer claimed that his wife and children were missing from their home in Frederick, Colorado, on August 13, 2018. In footage of him begging for their return, he claimed: “I just want them home so bad.”

Watts later admitted to strangling Shanann after she returned home from a work trip. However, he first claimed that Shanann had smothered Bella and Celeste (Cece) after he told her he was having an affair with a co-worker. He later confessed that he strangled his pregnant wife to death after she threatened to leave him and take their children. According to ABC News, Bella saw Watts dragging her mother down the stairs and cried, “What’s wrong with mommy?”

Afterward, he said he took Shanann’s body to an oil field — with his two daughters awake in the back seat of his truck. After Watts buried his wife, Watts smothered his two daughters before dumping their bodies in oil vats. He murdered Celeste first as Bella watched. Watts dumped his 3-year-old’s body into an oil tank and returned for his other child. Bella reportedly asked her father: “Is the same thing gonna happen to me as Cece? …. Daddy, no!”
