"Outlander" season 3 will delve into the family life of Claire. In an interview, Sophie Skelton, the actress who portrays Claire's daughter Brianna, hinted at a mother and daughter reunion.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Skelton shared that the next installment will be more about family rather than Claire's love life. Although she will be back in the arms of her true love, her reunion with her daughter will significantly be more important.
"It's been really lovely actually because last season, obviously, these two strong women kind of clashed heads a lot, which you still see some of in this season," Skelton told Entertainment Tonight. "But you do also see that element where it is that really strong mother daughter bond, which they kind of haven't had for the past 20 years, so it's nice to see them come together."
