Season 5b of 'Vikings' premiered yesterday and shed light on a long-standing fan theory. For years, fans speculated Ragnar wasn't actually the father of Bjorn. Ragnar's brother, Rollo, in fact, may have fathered the child with Lagertha. Wednesday night's (November 28) episode of 'Vikings' alluded to this in an emotional Lothbrok family showdown.
