The seventh season of Outlander concluded with a shocking revelation that suggests Faith Fraser, the stillborn daughter of Claire and Jamie Fraser, may have survived. The series will now venture into uncharted territory with an alternate timeline proposed by author Diana Gabaldon.
Outlander concluded its seventh season with a stunning revelation hinting at the possibility that Faith Fraser, the Frasers' stillborn daughter, might have survived. The show's creators have confirmed that the series will now explore uncharted territory with an alternate timeline conceived by author Diana Gabaldon.
Gabaldon had previously hinted that she hadn't had the opportunity to delve into this particular storyline herself, but it revolves around Master Raymond (Dominique Pinon) transporting Claire Fraser's (Caitriona Balfe) stillborn child to another era and saving her. The mystery surrounding Faith Fraser is poised to become a central plot point in the eighth and final season, according to reports from the Scottish Daily Express.Interestingly, fans might be surprised to learn that actress and producer Balfe advocated for a subtle reference to Faith in a pivotal reunion scene between Claire and Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) in the third season, after they were separated for 20 years. During the reunion at the print shop, where Jamie was using the alias Alexander Malcolm, Claire showed her husband pictures of their second daughter Brianna Fraser (Sophie Skelton) from the future. The Highlander then remarked on how Brianna had red hair 'like her sister, Faith', a poignant tribute to their late baby. Balfe previously explained how she persuaded the writers to include this subtle reference to Jamie and Claire's firstborn child. 'I just thought that no parents would ever forget a child, even if the child didn't make it to term,' Balfe told Elle. The Irish actress further added in the 2017 interview: 'She's still very much part of the family unit.'This moment, although not present in the original novels, was deemed essential by the show's writers. The character of Faith is integral to Outlander, with showrunner Matthew B. Roberts emphasizing its significance, particularly in the second season, where the infant's death serves as a crucial turning point in the narrative. For the third season's reunion, Roberts acknowledged the complexities involved in deciding which elements from the source material to retain or omit for the television adaptation, sharing, 'I wanted to stay as close to that median point of the source material as possible and not stray too far to either side of that.' Discussing with The Hollywood Reporter, he added: 'I wanted to keep as faithful to the source material as I could, from beginning to end, because of what has already come before this.' Debates arose within the writers' room regarding content decisions, as Roberts noted: 'We had debates in the writers room about what to keep and what to add and what adding something might do to the scene.'
