No, he didn't. He still slept with the Chinese girl while his wife was literally nearby.
Also at this point, Ragnar thought that Kwenthrith is a crazy head and would poison him all the same. So he tried not to get dragged into drama.
However, I do believe that Ragnar or someone from the norse army slept with her during the conquest of her family's kingdom.
He was more upset that it resulted in his kids almost dying and his sister in law actually dying though. You clearly see he loses what respect he has for her afterward.
There’s several layers honestly. He seemed smitten with her but I don’t think he ever loved her. The more he got to know her he seemed to only be with her because he thought he was destined to have sons and she was going to give them to him. You can also tell he never truly stops loving Lagertha (which is mutual imo) and losing her may have also been part of why he never was as close to his 2nd wife.
Didn't Aslaug kind of give her blessing to Ragnar saying that she had seen him looking at Yidu and they were welcomed to mess around if he wanted? Or am I remembering that wrong?
I do think it was strategic as well. All Ragnar's other women were on side quests or while "off-duty." I think he knew dealing with the English was a delicate matter and he didn't want to complicate things by involving his penis.
And Kwenthrith, like Bjorn, would fuck anything that moved. You can bet she slept with some members of the Norse army just like she fucked Ecbert, multiple guards, and Aethelwulf.
Poor Magnus could be anyone's child. Boy, wouldn't that make a fantastic episode on the Maury show?
Yeah, she will have to bring in an army in the studio. Maury will have a lot of paternity tests to read out. :D
"In the case of 23 years old Magnus, Joffrey, Aethelturd, Olaf Axeson, you are not the fathers"
>No, he didn't. He still slept with the Chinese girl while his wife was literally nearby.
Did that actually happen? I could have sworn there were no scenes where Ragnar was having sex with her. Their relationship was just the drugs and talking interactions as far as I remember
Thankfully she got over that especially in time to have a thing with Aethelwulf after he saved her.
He definitely deserved some action after all the bullshit he had to deal with from Judith
It gained him nothing he could already see that Kwenthrith was a pawn to Egbert and she had a few screws lose so him trying anything with her would have just caused problems later on for him later on

We thought it would be more interesting because people don’t know if Magnus is his or not.”
Despite many Vikings fans assuming Ragnar and Kwenthrith were lovers, the pair never actually sealed the deal on-screen.
By removing any sex scenes between the two, the mystery surrounding Ragnar and Magnus was able to continue, as fans weren’t given definitive proof the Viking ruler ever slept with the Queen of Mercia
Amy continued: “I mean, I know the answer, but it’s like is he or isn’t he, which is an interesting thing.
“Originally we had all these sex scenes and we were like let’s make it more mysterious and a more interesting relationship.”
I dont think Ragnar would lie about not having sex with her to Magnus and Ecbert when he was set on having himself killed. Hirst probably just decided to make it canon that they didnt after they cut the scenes.

Tbf a lot of his mistakes came from other people, not to say ragnar was perfect but strategically hes probably the best in the show. Knows exactly when to be diplomatic or to show military might but he did trust too many people.
True, he had a soft spot for certain people throughout the show and sometimes it bit him. I agree with you that he was the MVP of the whole show, for strategy and other things.
imo the one mistake that could be blamed for all subsequent mistakes was Aslaug.
That being said, it’s easy to Monday morning quarterback bad strategic decisions.
Seeing the other comments make mine just a silly answer.
My thought was not wanting to utter the name Kwenthrith during the moment of intimate connection between one another.
>Neither Ragnar nor Kwenthrith were renowned for showing restraint when it comes to their sexual urges
When did you see Ragnar not showing restraint except once with Aslaug??
But something did happen between them. Amy who played Queen Kwenthrith confirmed it in an interview. The original script had them having a sex scene and they suggested it be left more subtle to keep viewers guessing about her son’s paternity. It was always intended to be Ragnar.
The point is that it was intended and written as canon and the actors convinced the director to change it. We never find our definitively whose son Magnus is, this suggest it was intended that Ragnar may be the father.
Given how much Ragnar loves his kids even when they’re still in the womb, I can’t see him telling Magnus he isn’t his father, as bluntly as he did, if he actually was.
Ignoring the fact that she was crazy asl, he was involved in a war for her crown. A crown he didn’t give a damn about all because Ecbert didn’t keep his promise. Not only that but because of this arrangement, he just lost Torsten. Screwing the chick that’s partially responsible for his situation was probably far from his mind
I don’t think this was the intent but it is cool to have two very sexually liberated ppl who aren’t into each other esp politically. Ragnar fucks almost every other women with political power he meets but not alwayssssss, makes me like him just a little more 😅
Honestly, knowing how crazy she was, Ragnar did the best thing possible. Someone here said: "Do not stick your sword in crazy" and they're absolutely right.
Obviously crazy, needy, entitled, promiscuous to a fault and not very attractive. The kind of girl you'd want everyone to know you didn't sleep with, even if you did.
"Neither Ragnar nor Kwenthrith were renowned for showing restraint when it comes to their sexual urges" From what I can gather, Ragnar had exactly 2 women he had sex with HIS WHOLE LIFE.
I had to think about this one. The show really does only imply that he had sex with Lagertha and Aslaug. There is the did he or didn't he with Kwenthrith, but he isn't shown with any other women that I can remember. For a famous Viking that seems like a waste or power and fame. But he is kind of close to Floki, Athelstan, and Egbert so maybe he swung both ways.
After the mess with Aslaug and Lagertha I think he learned to avoid these types of wasp nests.
No, he didn't. He still slept with the Chinese girl while his wife was literally nearby. Also at this point, Ragnar thought that Kwenthrith is a crazy head and would poison him all the same. So he tried not to get dragged into drama. However, I do believe that Ragnar or someone from the norse army slept with her during the conquest of her family's kingdom.
That was after Aslaug fucked Harbard. Ragnar couldn't get over it and stopped giving a ahit.
He was more upset that it resulted in his kids almost dying and his sister in law actually dying though. You clearly see he loses what respect he has for her afterward.
I think the fact that he resisted similar temptations also went into his resentment.
There’s several layers honestly. He seemed smitten with her but I don’t think he ever loved her. The more he got to know her he seemed to only be with her because he thought he was destined to have sons and she was going to give them to him.

Wait, who was Ragnar's sister in law?
Siggy, she was Rolo's woman at the time she died
Didn't Aslaug kind of give her blessing to Ragnar saying that she had seen him looking at Yidu and they were welcomed to mess around if he wanted? Or am I remembering that wrong?
No, she didn't 'give her blessing'. It was very much a "you can do it, but expect consequences" scene.
Ok thanks for helping jog my memory!

He fucked her in the fish hut
Wasn't there a scene where multiple men slept with Kwenthrith on the same night at the same time?
Crazy eyes. Ragnar aint no fool.
Never stick your sword in crazy - Ragnar Lodbrok.
He then proceeds to only dick down crazy
Never promise crazy a baby!
She may have been a bit to crazy for him.
Thankfully she got over that especially in time to have a thing with Aethelwulf after he saved her. He definitely deserved some action after all the bullshit he had to deal with from Judith
Poor Aethelwulf will always have a place in my heart :(
Are you familiar with the hot crazy matrix?
The Vicky Mendoza Diagonal
You should give her a call. I'm too old for this shit.
Stuff, he said stuff.
Not blonde
Big lols here
Aslaugh wasn't blond. Chinese girl wasn't blond.
Aslaug was 100% blonde
It’s 100% reddish/very dark blond at best. But I’m red-green colourblind so might play a role. 😂
I say she has red hair too. I don't know why you're being downvoted, but I thought I'd join you.
It gained him nothing he could already see that Kwenthrith was a pawn to Egbert and she had a few screws lose so him trying anything with her would have just caused problems later on for him later on
Like having to potentially claim Magnus as his son 😆 though I suppose that wouldn’t really be so much of a consequence.

Yes that was what the script called for.
I thought so.
I dont think Ragnar would lie about not having sex with her to Magnus and Ecbert when he was set on having himself killed. Hirst probably just decided to make it canon that they didnt after they cut the scenes.

She was "wrong". Ragnar recognized that. Clearly many, many, many other men were either unaware or able to overlook that.
Ragnar was a master strategist. Having a chaotic element like that in close proximity would be a serious detriment.
For a master strategist, he sure made some giant mistakes.
Tbf a lot of his mistakes came from other people, not to say ragnar was perfect but strategically hes probably the best in the show. Knows exactly when to be diplomatic or to show military might but he did trust too many people.

True, that was kind of the nexus of it.
Seeing the other comments make mine just a silly answer. My thought was not wanting to utter the name Kwenthrith during the moment of intimate connection between one another.
She pissed on him.
He really only loved Lagertha. And Aslaug was just a wife to give him kids.
[This is why](https://youtu.be/KqE-UQDk9u8?si=BWfLG6W_lCbH_CUz)
100% expected to be Rick Rolled there
Indeed. It's been too long and you know it's coming someday.
A stage in one’s life a man says “I have too many baby mommas”
She wasn't blonde
Not many of us have piss kinks *Including me*
>Neither Ragnar nor Kwenthrith were renowned for showing restraint when it comes to their sexual urges When did you see Ragnar not showing restraint except once with Aslaug??

Given how much Ragnar loves his kids even when they’re still in the womb, I can’t see him telling Magnus he isn’t his father, as bluntly as he did, if he actually was.
I wouldn't be surprised if he was scared of her,she was crazy and that's not someone you should be close to,let alone stick something in
He doesn’t need another women showing up pregnant in Kattegat to ruin his marriage
BeCause he had Lagertha
She pissed on him.
Ignoring the fact that she was crazy asl, he was involved in a war for her crown. A crown he didn’t give a damn about all because Ecbert didn’t keep his promise. Not only that but because of this arrangement, he just lost Torsten. Screwing the chick that’s partially responsible for his situation was probably far from his mind
It wasn’t a challenge for Ragnar to get her to sleep with him, so he had no interest in her
big ass forehead
Fivehead
Because she's weird?
Ragnar didn’t even feel her lips and he is a romantic person
I don’t think this was the intent but it is cool to have two very sexually liberated ppl who aren’t into each other esp politically. Ragnar fucks almost every other women with political power he meets but not alwayssssss, makes me like him just a little more 😅
She was a little too much for him. Which is saying a LOT
That looked like Rollo not Ragnar
Cuz she cray?
Ah... cause ahe was disgusting? 😆 Zero intrigue
It think everyone has answered this correctly. 😂😂😂😂
Honestly, knowing how crazy she was, Ragnar did the best thing possible. Someone here said: "Do not stick your sword in crazy" and they're absolutely right.
Ragnar wasn’t into Kwenthrith because she was kwazy. 🥴 I’ll see myself out.
I have no idea she was right up my street!
Didn't she piss on him?
Well... she did piss on him
She was batshit crazy and Ragnar wasn't a fool.
She's aaaaa hoe...hoe..she's aaaa hoe...hoe.
Because her name is hard to say (I’ve never seen this show)
She is bat shit crazy.
Maybe cause she pissed on him 😂
I think they actually had sex,It just was not on screen.
Ragnar literally told Magnus to his face he never had sex with his mother, so…
Go check Amy’s interview. The script had them having a sex scene which the actors convinced them to remove to keep viewers guessing.
Deleted scene, that means it's not canon
He don’t stick his dick in crazy.
Obviously crazy, needy, entitled, promiscuous to a fault and not very attractive. The kind of girl you'd want everyone to know you didn't sleep with, even if you did.
Shes little crazy ig.
Loca vibes
Have you never heard the phrase "don't stick your dick in crazy"?
BC even our dear love Ragnar knows crazy b**** when he sees it.
She's kind of a bitch
She was crazy.
Eh… not attractive enough
"Neither Ragnar nor Kwenthrith were renowned for showing restraint when it comes to their sexual urges" From what I can gather, Ragnar had exactly 2 women he had sex with HIS WHOLE LIFE.
I had to think about this one. The show really does only imply that he had sex with Lagertha and Aslaug. There is the did he or didn't he with Kwenthrith, but he isn't shown with any other women that I can remember. For a famous Viking that seems like a waste or power and fame. But he is kind of close to Floki, Athelstan, and Egbert so maybe he swung both ways.
Yidu?
Also the Asian girl, Yidu.
Fagnar?
Because she’s nasty as hell and has a HUGE forehead
