Part of the reason Jenny urged
Laoghaire's husband and the girls' father had died. So he saw a chance to be a husband and a father — to have a family basically — that he thought he'd never get the chance to have since Claire went away. Basically, he married Laoghaire because he liked her kids and was feeling alone.
After Jamie returns from prison and indentured servitude, Jamie's sister, Jenny, arranges a marriage between Laoghaire and her grieving brother. The marriage, however, is a failure, and Jamie leaves Laoghaire.
Outlander star Sam Heughan previews season five
In the third outing, Jamie Fraser (played by Sam Heughan) tied the knot with Laoghaire MacKenzie (Nell Hudson) during the 20 years while Claire (Caitriona Balfe) was in the future.
Jamie has a son named William Ransom with Geneva Dunsany, who died during William's birth. Jamie also has two stepdaughters, Marsali MacKimmie Fraser and Joan MacKimmie, from his marriage to his second wife, Laoghaire MacKenzie.
“He's about 25,” Gabaldon said. It's an interesting response. If you're up to date on the series, then you know that Jamie is not dead at the age of 25.
Jamie did remain faithful to Claire. It didn't stop him from being aroused. However, it just made him miss and want Claire more. Even in their 50s, the two are ready to be with each other sexually.
Jamie's got two wives on 'Outlander' but we can't stay mad at him.
To recap: By Gabaldon's timeline, Jamie and Claire's age difference is 5.5 years, while on the show, that age gap shrinks to 4.5 years.
During his time apart from Claire, Jamie slept with several women, including Mary McNab (Emma Campbell-Jones) and Geneva Dunsany (Hannah James). And of course, there was Laoghaire MacKenzie (Nell Hudson) as well who had her sights on Jamie since season one.
Because yes, Claire and Lord John end up married in book seven, and yes, they drunkenly (and full of grief for the loss of Jamie, whom they both love with all of their heart) consummate that marriage. And then Jamie shows up alive and well!
During An Echo in the Bone/Written in My Own Heart's Blood, Claire marries for the third time. This time it's to Lord John Grey.
With the impending arrival of the Duke of Sandringham, Dougal returns to Leoch with Jamie and Claire. Not long after they arrive, Dougal gets word that his wife Maura has passed away of a fever at their estate of Beannachd.
So, technically, Claire has three husbands in the Outlander books. However, there is only one man for her: Jamie.
Convinced she was hiding something, he put a warrant out for her arrest, which left her stuck with very few options. As a result, Dougal made the decision Claire had to be married off to Jamie to allow her to be free in a political loophole.
Season(s) Geneva Dunsany was the daughter of Lord and Lady Dunsany, who reside at the Helwater estate. She blackmailed Jamie Fraser into a one-night stand, which resulted in their illegitimate child, William Ransom.
The simple answer is no. Claire and Jamie don't have any more children after Brianna. Claire heads through the stones while pregnant with Brianna at the end of the second season/book. She spends 20 years in the 20th century, and she and Frank don't have any children together.
1701-1800. Jamie and Claire have been separated for 20 years. He is hiding near Lallybroch after surviving the Battle of Culloden. Jamie is blackmailed into sleeping with Ellesmere's young fiancée Geneva and impregnates her.
It's possible that Amelie's sister is the one who gives birth to the line that leads to Claire. Fergus will still be an ancestor but not a direct ancestor and that would mean Laoghaire isn't one of Claire's ancestor.
Claire realises that she had fled because she was afraid that Jamie wouldn't choose her, but she now knows that her future is with Jamie and she will stay.
The scene also happened in the novel Voyager where Mary told Jamie she wasn't trying to make him forget about Claire but allow them both a moment of solace. Jamie acquiesced through tears, deeply missing Claire. He was so emotional, he had to close his eyes as he slept with Mary.
Jamie's Secret is a story about a nine-year-old who loves soccer, playing with her best friend Sadie, and collecting crystals. She loves hugging and climbing trees, watching butterflies, and soaring on her swing. Jamie loves life and everything that points to it.
As ambitious and enormous as the world of Outlander is, it's the characters and their relationships that make the story so compelling. At its heart is the love shared between Claire and Jamie, two people who ultimately would not let time or distance—even hundreds of years—keep them apart.
Jamie: "Claire, it was you. It's always been you, and it always will be. Get into bed and put the candle out.
