‘Vikings’ Season 4: New Image Reveals A Character With A Dramatic New Haircut
Will Ragnar Lothbrok have more romance woes in season 4 of Vikings? It seems the latest image released by History Channel could indicate as such by showing Ragnar standing with his current wife on one side and the new character of Yidu on the other.
SPOILER ALERT: This article contains information and speculation about the upcoming season 4 of Vikings as well as information about season 3. Please proceed with caution if you have not yet viewed season 3 in its entirety or wish to avoid spoilers.
Recently A&E released a batch of new images for the upcoming season 4 of Vikings which will premiere on February 18. Among the images was one of new character, Yidu. Dianne Doan will play the role of Yidu, an oriental slave that captures the attention of Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel). It is predicted Yidu will play a love interest to Ragnar — even though is still married to his second wife, Aslaug (Alyssa Sutherland).
Season 3 of Vikings saw Ragnar’s wife, Aslaug, have an affair with Harbard, a character that is set to return to Vikings according to a Zap2It interview with the actor who played him, Kevin Durand. Could the tables be turned on Aslaug in season 4 of Vikings? Could Ragnar grow tired with Aslaug once he sets sight on the woman of an ethnicity he has never seen before? Although, for Ragnar, this would not be the first time he has strayed from one of his wives, having met Aslaug during his marriage to his first wife, Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick). This meeting resulted in Aslaug becoming pregnant and her arriving on Ragnar and Lagertha’s doorstep, a move that led to Lagertha leaving her husband. So, if Ragnar is to have an affair with Yidu in season 4 of Vikings, just how will Aslaug react to it considering how she first met him?

It will be interesting to see just why Yidu cuts her hair in Vikings — does it have something to do with Aslaug, does she have an accident or does Yidu just decide to cut her hair on a whim? Only tuning into season 4 of Vikings in February will reveal all.
