It was bad enough that he got another woman pregnant and wanted to marry her. Then he goes and brings up the miscarriage which made it 100 times worse.

I think Ragnar was a very intelligent man, but unfortunately he made the biggest mistake of his life. What for, fame. He was't satisfied with all the blessings his God's had given him. He had a loving wife that would do anything for him and two beautiful children. I don't care what the morals we're in those days he was too egotistical to be happy with that. He later realized the big mistake he made but it was too late. There was no going back for Lagertha, he had broken her heart and she was never the same after that. Bjorn made the right choice going with his mother. Don't get me wrong, I love Ragnar. He has many good qualities but in this case he was wrong.

I feel so bad for women in ancient times whom were forced into a polygamous marriage. The man says sweet things to one lady then he turns around and says the same thing to the other wife while both are in the same room! It’s so disrespectful and humiliating!
Many women in ancient times also threw themselves into the arms of powerful men. Completely knowing that they had a previous relationship. Not all were victims.
only rich folk can afford more then one woman at those time .. not talking about few women who loved the rich men.. but most married the rich because of money.. so I guess they can live with polygamous
Still you condemn ragnar for cheating on her while she f&&&& several men . She was an evil bi%%%. For you women cheating and betraying on their husband is fine and loving but when a man cheats it infuriates you?
I understand Ragnar wanting to be there for his child and not wanting to abandon it, and wanting to be there for Aslaug in her time of need, but he shouldn’t have tried to take a second partner or wife. The cheating incident was already bad enough. Him talking about marrying another woman obviously hurt Lagertha very much, even more so than the pregnancy. It humiliated her and made her feel like less of a woman, like she wasn’t enough to satisfy him. Especially because Aslaug could give him something she couldn’t, which he knew she was sensitive about.
Keep in mind their culture. Their stance on monogamy during a marriage wasn't the same as in the 21st century in the west. Remember when Lagertha told him back in the beginning "don't sleep with many women in Kattegat" ? She knew he could have sex with someone else, she just didn't like it. Case in point here. Also, Ragnar is his usual self, he's not trying to embarass her. He tries to make the best out of an uncomfortable situation. He didn't tell Lagertha that he wanted Aslaug to stay because he loved her (yes, he liked her, but he wasn't in love with her). He just wanted Aslaug to stay because she was carrying his child and he wanted to take care of that child. He didn't want his child to die, or to grow up fatherless and unprotected and without a good family. Ragnar didn't lie to either woman about how things were. Aslaug and Ragnar thought of what was best for the child, a compromise, but Lagertha only thought of her PRIDE, how she was "humiliated". She wasn't humiliated, because other earls or kings could take a second wife, for whatever reason. And it's not like the people there didn't like her or respect her, she could have stayed. But no, she only wanted Ragnar for herself, she couldn't bare the thought that someone else could have him right in front of her eyes. If she really loved him as much as she claimed, she would have STAYED, not break their family. But in the end, she loved her PRIDE more than she loved RAGNAR.
@@marinitsag I disagree with you. If you love someone you don't cheat. That's all. Ragnar could have tried to have others children with Lagertha but he chooset not to. Besides he could ask Aslaug to give him the kid so he could raise him. It wasn't necessary to him to marry her or ask his wife to accept another women, that's selfish. Not to mention that Lagertha was the one who helped him to create that kingdom, and fought with him.
@@Nomymu That wasn't cheating. As I said, in their culture it's normal to sleep with other people if you want to.

As for asking Aslaug for the baby, why on earth would he take a child from its mother? Are you serious? Ragnar wasn't that kind of man. Exactly because customs allowed a second wife, he proposed that they all live together for the sake of all the children. It wasn't selfish at all, it was actually very responsible for a man at that time. And for your final argument, Lagertha helped in the beginning, as did Floki, Torstein, Rollo.

I think Lagertha did well to leave Ragnar. Not only because he cheated on her, but because she would have become more a slave to both Ragnar and Aslaug who would continuously weaken her. I just feel so sorry for Ragnar to fall under the spell of Aslaug.
I think he didn’t fall under the spell of Aslaug, if that was real he would have fallen in love at once with her and brouhgt her home at once. Actually she had to go to kattegat looking for him. In my opinion he just wanted a son (or many) for his personal glory, sons that his wife couldn’t give him any more. He acted selfishly, he should habe been loyal to lagertha who stood up for him when he was chased and almost murdered by the earl haraldson. He is the only one to blame here even though I don’t like aslaug at all.
excuse me? aslaug never bewitched Ragnar. lagertha just accused her of that because she became bitter and jealous. Ragnar chose to cheat to get kids. also legertha cheated first with rollo and got Bjorn from rollo as well in secret and never told Ragnar about that
Can´t blame Lagertha for leaving. Having children was really important thing to her, even more after Ragnar became Earl. But she couldn´t have more sons, while Aslaug could. Even if she stayed it would be like humiliation to her.
The reason why Ragnar wants both to stay is because he loves Lagertha but he also knows that he’s been promised great sons and he knew Aslaug was the key to that, he was doing what he thought the gods wanted him to do but he tried to cheat them by attempting to keep the love of his life, but she had her own destiny to fulfil
Im sorry but I laughed so hard during this scene. He's trying so hard to have his cake and eat it too. The actor did such a good job. It reminds me of child who knows what they're doing is stupid, but they try to make it work anyway 😂.
this was ragnars biggest mistake... he should not have let aslaugh there... lagerta was the one that fought with him... if he had stayed with lagerta perhaps they could have another son! lagerta did got pregnant again! she just had to take care of herself... aslaugh neglected her children, cheated on him, never fought...

@@dug5940 I'm not talking about the real ragnar, apparently all his sons were with aslaugh, I'm talking about the show, and sidgurd in the show didn't do shit and ivar ruin everything
It’s very sad but Ragnar could of done that better first by say sorry to his wife and put the mistress to the side but he did not so his wife did the right thing
I get having multiple wives was a thing but hard to imagine a strong character like Lagertha would be okey with such a decision. She stayed true to her character by making that decision.
He's talking about when they lost their unborn child he was heart broken but what about her?! She carried the child and he didn't think about her or her feelings just go in knocked up another woman and stepped out of their marriage
If he thought through a bit better and acted out more patiently, respected Lagertha's position and pride, he could've done right by Aslaug (he did impregnate her, after all) and he could've kept the love of his life by his side. Instead, he acted impulsively (stupidly), didn't choose his words wisely and lost the love of his life. It all played out how Aslaug initially imagined, she was always after the position of the Queen and Ragnar was able to provide her with that, and in return, she gave him sons, but they never truly loved each other, and that's sad. Because Ragnar needed long years (decades) to comprehend that having more sons with the person who didn't get him and with whom he didn't share that true bond was not worth it. He always pinned after Lagertha, until the very end, they are what we like to call today 'soulmates', they were meant to be together and they were in the end, in death. Ragnar was foolish in this regard, he could've played it out differently, alas wisdom comes with experience (and age) and he didn't have it at that time :( Lagertha remained loyal to him in her heart until the very end.
lagertha did that she bought bjorn to her 2nd husband to take care for. Went to ragnar despite being married with other man? Even cheated him with rollo. Isnt she a horny bi!ch woman? Stop defending woman cheating then. Psycho.
Ragnar just being selfish and greedy. Doesn't even take Lagertha and Bjorn's feelings into account. But of course got no blame, Aslaug being the other woman got all the blame and hate from other characters and fans. Can't believe Bjorn did the same when he was king.
I mean. Their relationship was kinda rubbish to begin with, first Lagertha Cheated with rollo, then Ragnar cheated and got himself Aslaug, but then Aslaug cheated with the wanderer. Though the entire cheating cycle did infact begin with Lagertha and rollo before Bjorn was born. So i think we can all agree that the real Homewrecker here is Rollo, he was the one Who started This cycle in an already morally Questionable home to begin with. Merely making it worse, but then again, Blame EVERYBODY! cause thats the fair way to go :)
@@Kvitravn. The decision to reveal Lagertha and Rollo had an affair didn't happen till the later seasons and by that time the show had lost it's quality. It was a bad decision and did Lagertha no favours
@@Kvitravn. She didn’t cheat on Ragnar. Ragnar stole Lagertha from Rollo. Rollo told the seer that. Ragnar also told Bjorn that he had to fight a bear to get Lagertha. He was talking about Rollo. Ragnar cuffin Lagertha from Rollovwas one of the main reasons he hated Ragnar.
Ragner may have regretted this the moment it happened,but still doesn't change anything,he regretted it way to late,when he should have regretted it the moment it happened
I'm a guy but damn he just told her " you must accept her." This is what it looks like when someone asks for an open relationship/marriage. Ridiculous. If you're not into that just get up and leave. Live your best life somewhere else with someone else that respects you.
Aslaug has no dignity, and I lost a lot of respect for Ragnar. He knew he was on hot water, yet he still humiliated Lagertha. So proud of her for being the strongest and better person.
Aslaug had more dignity than lagretha . Lagretha was super ambitious and hungry for power. She only really cared for Bjorn and herself and ragnars dream. But mostly, being the most famous shieldmaiden . While auslag only had eyes for her husband's rule and here sons ❤ The fact that lagretha killed auslag from the back while she wasn't defending herself says enough . She is also single handly responsible for the constant tension and arguing between the brothers. This all could have been avoided if she had just put aside here lust for power and recognition.
I couldn’t stand how no matter what Latherga always showed up for him but when she needed his help when her earldon was usurped he only went to ask for his ships and warriors to go to Paris with him, but she was able to get back her earldom and justice/revenge!! ❤Latherga!!❤❤
@@mariam-ci5hhI'm sorry but no. Even if by some chance she can overpower and kill him which is VERY unlikely because ragnar is one of the all time greatest vikings it's in his kingdom, his very loyal men like floki ect wouldn't even give her the chance to attempt
I would’ve left to. I would’ve also felt insulted & humiliated! The love would always be there however if a man makes me unsure of myself let alone my feelings towards him, I’d have to say I’d leave with at the very least my dignity in tact. And I know without hesitation my son would also come with me too!
this was ragnars biggest mistake... he should not have let aslaugh there... lagerta was the one that fought with him... if he had stayed with lagerta perhaps they could have another son! lagerta did got pregnant again! she just had to take care of herself... aslaugh neglected her children, cheated on him, never fought... I could never really like ragnar after this...
@@desisarod it was fated for him to have children & lagertha couldn’t bear anymore. It was his fault he couldn’t make the arrangements he wanted to happen but it was lagertha’s fault when she felt entitled to be queen & killed Aslaug
@@kane3j336 Lagerta had more right than aslaugh! Lagerta did got pregnant again, and ragnar didn't pay much attention to his other kids, so he did made a mistake
I started watching this show today, was on the final episode of Season 1 and as soon Aslaug entered the story, I did a quick Google search and learned Ragnar betrays his wife. I was done and closed the season. I don't like the thought of a man betraying his wife like this. Men are so stupid. See a pair of boobs and an attractive face and that's it. That's how weak and stupid some men are. Others who are faithful are stupid in other ways.
He apparently never considered that she would leave and Bjorn would go with her. In a way, he ended up trading one family for another. Then he wondered if his sons would ‘enjoy more’ fame than he… his reaction to Bjorn’s future fame was telling. Almost like he realized that he could have stayed in that happy marriage with Lagertha. Still would have had Bjorn and Bjorn would have still been the king of all Norway. And Lagertha might have had a second healthy son given that she got pregnant again years later. He spent the rest of his life questioning the Gods. No regrets and every regret.
Yeah the other one doesn't even do it for me. I wouldn't say no if she offered to buy me a beer at the bar, but I'm with Lagertha all day every day. Ragnar was stupid. Sometimes you have to know when Good Enough is Good Enough and that is PLENTY GOOD ENOUGH bro.
It's funny how, because of his embarrassed body language, Ragnar looks smaller than both of them. I'm sure that's kinda how he felt 😅 too much on his plate
It's bad enough that men cheat and knock them up but to ask the wife to be the bigger person or anybody to be a bigger person and take the high road. They already are the bigger person for not being a coward and a liar in the first place. What their asking is for freedom from their own guilt. That wouldn't happen in my life. Ragnar would have been kicked to the mud.
Aslaug was a total instigating hypocrite. Happy to make advances on Ragnar, sleep with him, bare his child and move in with him at what would inevitably be the expense of his wife, love of his life and mother of his children, Lagertha, but then kicks off at him for speaking with an attractive slave girl? I actually get that, as Athelstan pointed out, it might have even been as much because it was a slave girl but still, the absolute hypocrisy of moving in on Lagertha's turf in every single way then complaining and whinging to Ragnar when he wasn't even close to doing what she stated.
And this is how you speak to your Queen!!?? Right after shes just lost your son, buried your daughter!!! U force this on her at a dinner table for everyone to see and hear. Lagatha was right in leaving. U lost a QUEEN Ragnar, because Aslaug was nothing but a spoiled child
Also, for the people saying he wasn't wrong and that's just how things were back then. Well, in the context of this scene clearly it wasn't common for someone to take two wives as he said he's heard of this and it's not that unusual trying to convince her. If it was common practice among their people he wouldn't need to convince her in this way.
@@Aesirnordic and I was saying that regardless of it being common historically. Clearly in the show it's not the total norm or else she wouldn't even have expectations of monogamy to begin with
Read the comments if anyone saw it all the way through uou would know Bjorn ironside is not ragners actual son (she cheated on him in SECRET with ragners brother rollo)so if he did not cheat he would have no BIOLOGICAL sons and she never told ragner bjorn is not his son
good for her for not going for it. dude was out of his mind proposing that to a woman who actually loved him the way she did BUT you gotta respect a brother for trying lmao
Im Muslim. My ex husband (deceased now) he waited 5yrs into our marriage & started Talkn this Sec wife shit I tried to endure it but I could not We both were pregnant at the same time Irony….My baby died after birth & she gave birth 2 months later I came to the hospital to visit her & he was there holding their daughter I walked in & walked out then collapsed in the elevator It took me 18months to get over the entire marriage Shortly After I left…He had to put up with her shit alone. His family sided with me They divorced a month after she had their daughter…he married 4 more times after that to various women. Only to end up with a Evil psychopath literally He developed a rigorous form of cancer that killed him in a yr On his death bed he told his mother the only regret the had was leaving me He wish he was more patient
And when she wanted to have thresome with Athelstan, then it was ok.But when Ragnar wanted,then its not ok....Lagertha is one to blame for not being together until the end !!!
Because it's so much easier to fool himself with all that bullshit than turning the fuck down in the first place. That other girl is gorgeous and all, but I guess it's a matter of being loyal or not in the end.
for surviving, in that age... woman didnt have other choice that accept share her husband with other womans like bjorn wifes did, but... lagertha is not a common woman, she's not a woman, in fact, ragnar stupidty benefits her so hard, she could scape, kill a jarl and claim the throne, and being a great woman who doesnt depend on a man, if u see the whole show, lagertha is the only woman who doesnt depend on a man, the other woman has no other choice because they're slave or something like that... but... ragnar lost the best warrior for thinking with the Dick. Sorry, im learning english, forgive me if im doing wrong.
Don't worry bro your English is far better than many others. You're right that Lagertha is not a common woman as she's a chieftain shield maiden but Auslag is a princess therefore she has a higher status.
@@markiec8914 i feel like she needed that, every woman in this show is STRONG, but sadly they depends on his jarl, but lagertha, wow, lagertha did everything by herself, she made a name for herself, not for ragnar, i mean ragnar is god, but lagertha, wow... for me that woman is beyond my thoughts, i think she needed to be hurt like that to become what she's now, beautiful show, ragnar begun the show as the most religious man and he end atheist, most people thinks this is war and blood but its more...

I think he didn’t fall under the spell of Aslaug, if that was real he would have fallen in love at once with her and brouhgt her home at once. Actually she had to go to kattegat looking for him. In my opinion he just wanted a son (or many) for his personal glory, sons that his wife couldn’t give him any more. He acted selfishly, he should habe been loyal to lagertha who stood up for him when he was chased and almost murdered by the earl haraldson. He is the only one to blame here even though I don’t like aslaug at all.
@@jaymaxwell5256 ikr, lagertha cheated first and Ragnar only did it to get kids. aslaug never bewitched Ragnar
excuse me? aslaug never bewitched Ragnar. lagertha just accused her of that because she became bitter and jealous. Ragnar chose to cheat to get kids. also legertha cheated first with rollo and got Bjorn from rollo as well in secret and never told Ragnar about that
@@scarlettlamadani727 Bjorn is rollo's son?🗿

He Nat 1'ed his persuasion check.
I agree
Many years later Bjorn makes the same mistake. I feel sorry for Gunnhild and Lagertha.
well especially knowing that Bjorn is Rollo's son, lol, Lagertha got what she deserved.
Omg Gunnhild was my other favorite. Real bad ass female.

Can´t blame Lagertha for leaving. Having children was really important thing to her, even more after Ragnar became Earl. But she couldn´t have more sons, while Aslaug could. Even if she stayed it would be like humiliation to her.
She cheat first
@@phuphovlog she was dating Rollo before Ragnar. She didn't cheat
The reason why Ragnar wants both to stay is because he loves Lagertha but he also knows that he’s been promised great sons and he knew Aslaug was the key to that, he was doing what he thought the gods wanted him to do but he tried to cheat them by attempting to keep the love of his life, but she had her own destiny to fulfil
Yea becoming a lesbian eventually like why? Go to such extreme very strange but hey ho I guess
@mrcosmo670 that was much later on, but true lol😂😂
I was like “Ragnar do you have any idea what your doing right now!”
Im sorry but I laughed so hard during this scene. He's trying so hard to have his cake and eat it too. The actor did such a good job. It reminds me of child who knows what they're doing is stupid, but they try to make it work anyway 😂.
Ragnar never thought Lagertha was gonna leave his ass😂😂. He said “you must accept her” She said …..✌🏽🏃🏼♀️💨
‘Im my dreams we are always together’
this was ragnars biggest mistake... he should not have let aslaugh there... lagerta was the one that fought with him... if he had stayed with lagerta perhaps they could have another son! lagerta did got pregnant again! she just had to take care of herself... aslaugh neglected her children, cheated on him, never fought... I could never really like ragnar after this...
If he hadn't his Children wouldn't have conquered England and his name would have been forgotten.
@@dug5940 wrong!!! Ragnar didn't conquer anything! He travel, he discovered... But he didn't conquer.. anything he accomplish in his life was with lagerta and bjorn by his side.. NOT aslaugh
@@desisarod reread my Statement I said his sons conquered.
@@desisarod No Aslaug.. no Ubba, Sigurd or Ivar and they conquered the almost the entirety of Britainia. Alongside Hvitserk and Beorn and Harald Ragnarsson of course. Beorns primary feat was his exploration of the Mediterranean.
@@dug5940 I'm not talking about the real ragnar, apparently all his sons were with aslaugh, I'm talking about the show, and sidgurd in the show didn't do shit and ivar ruin everything
I loved Lagretha's decision.. I wished her to do this since if I were in her place then I'd do the same..
SAME
It’s very sad but Ragnar could of done that better first by say sorry to his wife and put the mistress to the side but he did not so his wife did the right thing
I can’t believe Ragnar actually asked Her to do that
Uh uh... I think Ragnar knew that he was fighting a losing battle and that Lagatha would leave him.
I get having multiple wives was a thing but hard to imagine a strong character like Lagertha would be okey with such a decision. She stayed true to her character by making that decision.
Man Ragnar fumbled the bag big time 😂😂😂
He's talking about when they lost their unborn child he was heart broken but what about her?! She carried the child and he didn't think about her or her feelings just go in knocked up another woman and stepped out of their marriage
Floki was looking like, "This is gonna be good"
If he thought through a bit better and acted out more patiently, respected Lagertha's position and pride, he could've done right by Aslaug (he did impregnate her, after all) and he could've kept the love of his life by his side.
Instead, he acted impulsively (stupidly), didn't choose his words wisely and lost the love of his life. It all played out how Aslaug initially imagined, she was always after the position of the Queen and Ragnar was able to provide her with that, and in return, she gave him sons, but they never truly loved each other, and that's sad. Because Ragnar needed long years (decades) to comprehend that having more sons with the person who didn't get him and with whom he didn't share that true bond was not worth it.
He always pinned after Lagertha, until the very end, they are what we like to call today 'soulmates', they were meant to be together and they were in the end, in death.
Ragnar was foolish in this regard, he could've played it out differently, alas wisdom comes with experience (and age) and he didn't have it at that time :(
Lagertha remained loyal to him in her heart until the very end.
lagertha did that she bought bjorn to her 2nd husband to take care for. Went to ragnar despite being married with other man? Even cheated him with rollo. Isnt she a horny bi!ch woman? Stop defending woman cheating then. Psycho.
Ragnar just being selfish and greedy. Doesn't even take Lagertha and Bjorn's feelings into account. But of course got no blame, Aslaug being the other woman got all the blame and hate from other characters and fans. Can't believe Bjorn did the same when he was king.
I mean. Their relationship was kinda rubbish to begin with, first Lagertha Cheated with rollo, then Ragnar cheated and got himself Aslaug, but then Aslaug cheated with the wanderer.
Though the entire cheating cycle did infact begin with Lagertha and rollo before Bjorn was born. So i think we can all agree that the real Homewrecker here is Rollo, he was the one Who started This cycle in an already morally Questionable home to begin with. Merely making it worse, but then again, Blame EVERYBODY! cause thats the fair way to go :)
@@Kvitravn. The decision to reveal Lagertha and Rollo had an affair didn't happen till the later seasons and by that time the show had lost it's quality. It was a bad decision and did Lagertha no favours
@@Shane-Flanagan the show isn't about doing people "favours" it's storytelling that you may or may not like
@@hush7359 Didn't say it was about doing people favours
@@Kvitravn. She didn’t cheat on Ragnar. Ragnar stole Lagertha from Rollo. Rollo told the seer that. Ragnar also told Bjorn that he had to fight a bear to get Lagertha. He was talking about Rollo. Ragnar cuffin Lagertha from Rollovwas one of the main reasons he hated Ragnar.
he knew he regretted this he even says it in later seasons before he dies too
Ragner may have regretted this the moment it happened,but still doesn't change anything,he regretted it way to late,when he should have regretted it the moment it happened
If Ragnar loved Lagertha,he wouldn't of cheated on her.
@RAa Nna YESSS İM SAYİNG THAT why all those people at comment blames on ragnar so much lagertha cheated ragnar with rollo RAGNARSS BROTHER
@@baki7869 miss girl chose ragnar everytime tho
I'm a guy but damn he just told her " you must accept her." This is what it looks like when someone asks for an open relationship/marriage. Ridiculous.
If you're not into that just get up and leave. Live your best life somewhere else with someone else that respects you.
He was into his wants and did not care about her feelings at all. I was glad when she walked out on him.
Far too many fail to see the Queen they already have by their side until it is too late.
Aslaug has no dignity, and I lost a lot of respect for Ragnar. He knew he was on hot water, yet he still humiliated Lagertha. So proud of her for being the strongest and better person.
Aslaug had more dignity than lagretha .
Lagretha was super ambitious and hungry for power. She only really cared for Bjorn and herself and ragnars dream. But mostly, being the most famous shieldmaiden .
While auslag only had eyes for her husband's rule and here sons ❤
The fact that lagretha killed auslag from the back while she wasn't defending herself says enough .
She is also single handly responsible for the constant tension and arguing between the brothers.
This all could have been avoided if she had just put aside here lust for power and recognition.
It was not so much the infidelity that broke Lagertha, it was the sharing, being upgraded (a new wife to give him sons) and shaming her in public.
Lathegar took all these emotions, hurt and humiliation!! She stood on business and left his azz and found her own destiny
I don’t blame Lagertha.... you made the decision, you live with it. But I won’t
I couldn’t stand how no matter what Latherga always showed up for him but when she needed his help when her earldon was usurped he only went to ask for his ships and warriors to go to Paris with him, but she was able to get back her earldom and justice/revenge!! ❤Latherga!!❤❤
Ragnar's pimpin' game was weak.😅😂
Floki looking for something to pop off!😂😂
Ragnar's mistake was to even dare to think he could tell Lagertha what she "must" do
Im surprised lagathar didnt kill ragnar there and then for what he said
can she tho ?

@@mariam-ci5hhI'm sorry but no.

YEAH IT WORKED REALLY WELL RAGNARNOW LOOK AT YOUR KIDSTEARING THE LAND APARTKILLING HUNDREDS OF LIFE OVER BICKERING OVER NOTHING!
Your mistress cannot cook.
I would’ve left to. I would’ve also felt insulted & humiliated! The love would always be there however if a man makes me unsure of myself let alone my feelings towards him, I’d have to say I’d leave with at the very least my dignity in tact. And I know without hesitation my son would also come with me too!
Aslaug always reminded me of the dragon in Shrek🤣🤣🤣
Ragner should be embarrassed at himself,he only not humiliated lagertha but also himself
You tried Ragnar, you tried. I hate to say I can’t blame you for wanting them both. Both of their actors are very attractive.
this was ragnars biggest mistake... he should not have let aslaugh there... lagerta was the one that fought with him... if he had stayed with lagerta perhaps they could have another son! lagerta did got pregnant again! she just had to take care of herself... aslaugh neglected her children, cheated on him, never fought...

@@kane3j336 ?? Aslaugh and ragnar had nothing compare to what ragnar and lagerta had!
What man in his right mind would pick Aslaug over Lagertha 😛
I started watching this show today, was on the final episode of Season 1 and as soon Aslaug entered the story, I did a quick Google search and learned Ragnar betrays his wife. I was done and closed the season. I don't like the thought of a man betraying his wife like this. Men are so stupid. See a pair of boobs and an attractive face and that's it. That's how weak and stupid some men are. Others who are faithful are stupid in other ways.
All I was thinking was Ragnar shut up, shut up man shut up
Would’ve done exactly what lagertha did
He apparently never considered that she would leave and Bjorn would go with her. In a way, he ended up trading one family for another. Then he wondered if his sons would ‘enjoy more’ fame than he… his reaction to Bjorn’s future fame was telling. Almost like he realized that he could have stayed in that happy marriage with Lagertha. Still would have had Bjorn and Bjorn would have still been the king of all Norway. And Lagertha might have had a second healthy son given that she got pregnant again years later.
He spent the rest of his life questioning the Gods.
No regrets and every regret.
Yeah the other one doesn't even do it for me. I wouldn't say no if she offered to buy me a beer at the bar, but I'm with Lagertha all day every day. Ragnar was stupid. Sometimes you have to know when Good Enough is Good Enough and that is PLENTY GOOD ENOUGH bro.
What a Chad! Look at Ragnar's expression hahaha!
Hes such an idoit here i felt embarrassed for him😂
It's funny how, because of his embarrassed body language, Ragnar looks smaller than both of them. I'm sure that's kinda how he felt 😅 too much on his plate
Ragnar is embarrassed? I didn't realize men felt that emotion. Ragnar blew it!
Shut up idiot
He already knows aslaug will stick around no matter what so he’s trying to make lagertha stay
It's bad enough that men cheat and knock them up but to ask the wife to be the bigger person or anybody to be a bigger person and take the high road. They already are the bigger person for not being a coward and a liar in the first place. What their asking is for freedom from their own guilt. That wouldn't happen in my life. Ragnar would have been kicked to the mud.
I fucking hated Ragnar and Aslaug during this episode. I really felt sympathy for Lagertha and Bjorn.
Ragnar is best❤
Lagetha is like “this b*tch has got me f*cked up”
He was a jerk. And mentioning her miscarriage to manipulate her was despicable.
Aslaug was a total instigating hypocrite. Happy to make advances on Ragnar, sleep with him, bare his child and move in with him at what would inevitably be the expense of his wife, love of his life and mother of his children, Lagertha, but then kicks off at him for speaking with an attractive slave girl? I actually get that, as Athelstan pointed out, it might have even been as much because it was a slave girl but still, the absolute hypocrisy of moving in on Lagertha's turf in every single way then complaining and whinging to Ragnar when he wasn't even close to doing what she stated.
And this is how you speak to your Queen!!?? Right after shes just lost your son, buried your daughter!!! U force this on her at a dinner table for everyone to see and hear. Lagatha was right in leaving. U lost a QUEEN Ragnar, because Aslaug was nothing but a spoiled child
Thank God Lagertha left him, for once the woman wasn't a doormat. if she had stayed, she would've been a slave for everyone in that house.
ragnar: "ok now kiss"
This was one of his biggest mistakes. Lagertha deserves better.

Also, for the people saying he wasn't wrong and that's just how things were back then. Well, in the context of this scene clearly it wasn't common for someone to take two wives as he said he's heard of this and it's not that unusual trying to convince her. If it was common practice among their people he wouldn't need to convince her in this way.

Im Muslim. My ex husband (deceased now) he waited 5yrs into our marriage & started Talkn this Sec wife shit
I tried to endure it but I could not
We both were pregnant at the same time
Irony….My baby died after birth & she gave birth 2 months later
I came to the hospital to visit her & he was there holding their daughter
I walked in & walked out then collapsed in the elevator
It took me 18months to get over the entire marriage
Shortly After I left…He had to put up with her shit alone. His family sided with me
They divorced a month after she had their daughter…he married 4 more times after that to various women. Only to end up with a Evil psychopath literally
He developed a rigorous form of cancer that killed him in a yr

He did a great choice ..... he made season 6 possible
Option 3 Ragnar couldn't think of: Take care of the baby but don't stay in a romantic or sexual relationship with Aslaug
How he smile without any guilty
how she acts betrayed when she herself cheated ( with rollo ) without any guilt
Ragnar didn't leave his wife but tried to take care of everyone.
Because it's so much easier to fool himself with all that bullshit than turning the fuck down in the first place. That other girl is gorgeous and all, but I guess it's a matter of being loyal or not in the end.
He tried 😂
No wonder he is smiling. That is not the village hag.
for surviving, in that age... woman didnt have other choice that accept share her husband with other womans like bjorn wifes did, but... lagertha is not a common woman, she's not a woman, in fact, ragnar stupidty benefits her so hard, she could scape, kill a jarl and claim the throne, and being a great woman who doesnt depend on a man, if u see the whole show, lagertha is the only woman who doesnt depend on a man, the other woman has no other choice because they're slave or something like that... but... ragnar lost the best warrior for thinking with the Dick.
