Is Lagertha the Backbone of Vikings Season 5

Since the start, if the fourth season there was a rumor that the character of Lagartha will be dead till its end. But as the plot proceeded we realized, she is far from being the obsolete part of Vikings. At the end of the series, the fans of the show got the biggest surprise of their lives as the lead character Ragner was killed. Now there is more speculation of what will happen to the show and how Lagartha will keep the connection with the plot.  As per her personal statement, she is going nowhere in the coming season and will possess a very important role.

The fans of Lagertha may see the ending for the Queen of Kattegat in this coming season. But the plot of Lagartha’s death is not out of the context in the coming season too. Though it is not mentioned who among the five will hold responsibility for Lagertha’s possible death, but the spoilers claimed Katheryn Winnick’s character would likely meet her unfortunate fate because of Ivar the Boneless, who is Ragnar’s fourth son with Aslaug. The storyline will be interesting as her fate was formerly got known as, when Lagertha asked The Seer to predict her death, it was confirmed that, it would be by one of Ragnar’s son as the culprit.
