The prequel to Outlander, titled Blood of My Blood, will introduce audiences to a younger Jocasta Cameron (portrayed by Sadhbh Malin), delving into her backstory, reports the Scottish Daily Express.

Jocasta’s life was marked by tragedy. She initially resided with her siblings at Castle Leoch, including Dougal MacKenzie (Graham McTavish), Colum MacKenzie (Gary Lewis) and Ellen MacKenzie.

Like her sister Ellen, Jocasta was a talented artist, but later in life, she lost her sight due to glaucoma.

Jocasta Cameron’s tragic marriages in Outlander

Jocasta’s life was marred by repeated heartbreak as she became a widow multiple times.

In Outlander, Jocasta had four marriages, with her first three husbands meeting untimely ends. She was wed to John Cameron of Erracht, Hugh Cameron of Aberfeldy and Hector Mor Cameron of Loch Eilean.

Her first marriage to John resulted in the birth of their daughter Clementina Cameron. However, their joy was short-lived as John succumbed to the flux.

Clementina later married and had two children, but her husband died before the Battle of Culloden. The rest of the family tragically perished after the Rising in 1746.

Jocasta’s second husband, Hugh, was the cousin of her first husband John, and together they had a daughter named Seonag.

Hugh met his end during a hunting trip, and Seonag, who later married and had a daughter, also tragically died in the brutal aftermath of the Battle of Culloden.

Seonag’s husband, Master of Garth, fell on the battlefield of Culloden.

Jocasta’s third marriage was to Hector, and they had a daughter named Morna. However, their escape from Scotland following the Battle of Culloden was intercepted by the English.

In the ensuing chaos, Hector accidentally killed their daughter Morna, an act Jocasta could never forgive.

Despite their tragedy, Hector and Jocasta managed to reach the New World, where Hector lived until the age of 73 before succumbing to a severe throat infection.

Jocasta’s fourth and final marriage was to Duncan Innes. The couple decided to leave her River Run estate in the New World and start anew in Canada.

Jocasta Cameron’s relationship with Ulysses

After the death of her third husband Hector, Jocasta found herself managing the River Run estate alone. She was assisted by her butler, Ulysses, with whom she shared a close bond.

There were even suspicions that Ulysses had committed murder for Jocasta, although this was never confirmed.

Rumours suggested that Jocasta and Ulysses were romantically involved even before Hector’s demise.

In a testament to their unique relationship, Jocasta provided Ulysses with papers that allowed him to leave whenever he wished, indicating that Ulysses chose to stay with her out of his own volition, not obligation.
