Yet, Caroline still remained out of the picture.

Updated 6 months ago.

Most of the time, when former characters have appeared on Legacies, I've been unimpressed, but Caroline helped make the school what it is today, so she needs to arrive at some point. Did you watch The Vampire Diaries, or are you new to the franchise?

What if, God forbid, the twins are forced to merge all over again and one of them dies? "We don't want Caroline to be an irresponsible mother," showrunner Julie Plec explained in a 2018 interview (via For now, audiences will just have to be satiated with brief mentions of Caroline. - by Bianca Mastroianni 15 Jul 2019 The CW. Even if there was important stuff for Caroline to tend to, she would find the time to return to her old stomping grounds instead of viewers learning that the twins spent the summer with her in Europe or something. Caroline is the surrogate mother of Josie & Lizzie Saltzman, after the Gemini Coven transferred the babies into her womb after the death of the twins biological mother Josette Laughlin at the hands of the twins uncle Malachai Parker. Killing Caroline would open a lot of doors, story-wise, and it would make the set-up of the series a little bit more believable. If anyone understands the severity of recent events, it's Caroline, and with the merge completed, the show is going to face an uphill battle to give answers. Aside from the weekly demons they faced coming out of Malavore's pit, Josie had been experimenting with dark magics, which the essence was then contained in an hourglass (though, we don't know for how long), and Lizzie's vampire boyfriend Sebastian (Thomas Doherty) may or may not have the best intentions.So, where is Caroline while all of this danger is going on? The cast teases where she is an if she'll appear.

Caroline would move mountains for her children and even for Alaric. Now, I could be surprised, and King could agree to appear on Legacies Season 3, but at this stage, it seems unlikely. Bonnie Bennett (Kat Graham) was able to trap Kai in a magical prison, and now on the most recent episode of the CW series, the Saltzmans' are in the supernatural cage with their psychopath uncle.While we know the high school witches will be forced to confront their biological mom's killer, will fans get to see the possible return of their other "mom," Caroline?Seriously, the Saltzmans have been going through a lot of trials and tribulations this season. The Vampire Diaries spin-off series, Legacies, is bringing back a familiar face.
There's only so many times we'll stand for the half-baked tidbits of information about her whereabouts. While that's a decent justification, recent events in Mystic Falls make it seem like her daughters have been abandoned entirely. Even though she was self-centered when that beloved show began, she grew to be more mindful of the feelings of others. The franchise has already used a sleeping curse, so that won't fly unless the majority of the Legacies fanbase has not watched the two shows that came before, which, come to think of it, might very well be the case. A recast or a Dynasty-like catastrophe would not go down well with fans, not in the slightest. Hell, she played the character for eight years and became a household name as a result.
Legacies has a Caroline Forbes problem, and the only way to solve it is to kill off this Vampire Diaries favorite. That was fun, until Kai's demise. Caroline Elizabeth Forbes-Salvatore was a main character of The Vampire Diaries and a recurring character of The Originals. A theory I've seen a lot online is that King would look older than the role she's playing. Ever since Legacies debuted in 2018, the series has struggled to explain the lack of Caroline Forbes, also known as mother to Lizzie and Josie Saltzman. By Gabrielle Bernardini . If the actress never plans on appearing, then the character needs to be killed off.

Caroline Forbes has been conspicuously missing from Legacies. She's a loving woman, but the fault here lies with the creative forces behind Legacies. Anyway, I'm not sure I'm going to be satisfied with whatever direction they take this storyline, but I want to hear from you! Julie Plec has been open about wanting King to reprise her role, but it seems like the actress is over it.

That would give another silly reason to keep Caroline in Europe, but even if Legacies travels that direction, staying away from her kids as they inch closer to a potential demise is not good.

The headstrong blonde vampire is not someone who would just uproot her life and leave her family behind. What do you think of the excuses for the lack of Caroline Forbes? To recap, Kai crashed Alaric's (Matthew Davis) wedding to fiancée Jo Laughlin (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) and killed her while she was pregnant with Lizzie (Jenny Boyd) and Josie (Kaylee Bryant) in However, to save the Gemini twins, the girls were supernaturally transferred inside Caroline Forbes' (Candice King) womb. To explain the character's absence in This is magical process that would see her twin daughters merging into one person, while the other dies, at the age of 22.

FINALLY - Caroline Forbes will join 'Legacies' See the proof here! It's also possible that the merge that was completed was not legit, and the twins are in for a nasty shock. 'Legacies': Is Caroline Forbes Coming Back to Mystic Falls? And for those saying it would be the next best thing, it really wouldn't be.

There's a reason why Caroline is such a fan-favorite -- it's that Candice King delivers a flawless performance when she takes on the role.

At least not for this fan! But even before that, when Kai escaped from the prison world, her daughters and even her ex-lover were stuck there for a small period of time.
