PUBLISHED NOV 5, 2018

'Legacies,' CW's latest spin-off from the 'Vampire Diaries' universe, has fans elated to be reunited with some of their favorite characters. However, Caroline Forbes (Candice King), a major character both in 'Vampire Diaries' and its spin-off 'The Originals' seems to be missing in action in 'Legacies'.

In an interview with Hollywood Life, showrunner Julie Plec offered possible answers to Caroline's whereabouts and if she will be seen on the show in the future, “Caroline gets mentioned quite a lot, her absence gets mentioned a bit as well in that she’s been such a good mother so why isn’t she here? And there’s a little bit of a long-term mystery attached to that we will slowly unravel."
