As Ian grieved, he was told to leave the Mohawk tribe. They believed the man's spirit must battle with the woman's and overcome it, but sadly, the Mohawk tribe felt Ian's spirit was not strong enough for a child to take root in the womb and therefore, he and Emily were no longer compatible.
But you can't deny that he did spend three, four years with the Mohawk. He will never lose that part of his history and he will always carry that with him. He's fierce because of it. He proved to himself, I think, that he could survive without Jamie, without any of his family.
Sadly, Emily loses the baby and the experience guts Ian. But that doesn't stop him from showering Emily with even more devotion. When Emily loses a second child, things change. Since he isn't full-blood Mohawk, Ian is told that his spirit is "doing battle" with Emily's spirit.
As part of the negotiations for Roger's release, Ian chose to become a Mohawk to replace a man that was killed, and married Emily. They experienced a number of miscarriages, including a stillborn daughter whom he privately named Iseabaìl.

Roger is a descendant of Geillis and Dougal's son. Roger has Geillis's green eyes and inherited her ability to pass through the stones. He meets her in 1739, having traveled through time in search of his son, Jem.
The killer is in fact Malva's brother, Allan Christie (Alexander Vlahos). He is also the father of her baby, having raped and abused Malva since she was a child. Malva had decided to tell the truth, which is why Allan killed her.
Shortly thereafter, Emily got pregnant but lost the child—a tragic pattern that then repeated. As a result, the Mohawk claimed that Ian and Emily's spirits were ill-matched and exiled Ian, remarrying Emily to another tribe member (Ian's best friend, Sun Elk) in an effort to continue the Mohawk generations.
Ian has been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder; he currently refuses to visit the doctor and does not believe he needs to take medication. For these reasons his behavior has been erratic and out of control, worrying his family.
"Ian is also a really good person who feels responsible because he's the one who sold Roger to the Mohawk, even though he didn't know at the time who Roger was," Graphia says.
After several miscarriages, Young Ian left his wife and the tribe on the advice of Emily's grandmother. In the source material, he later went back to find Emily had re-married and had children with her new husband.
Mary Hawkins' baby was that of Alex Randall, with her and Jack only marrying to ensure Mary was provided for after Alex's death. But that didn't make Mary and Black Jack Randall's wedding valid. If you remember back to “The Wedding,” Jamie made it clear that he and Claire had to consummate the relationship.
When Ian returned to Fraser's Ridge in Outlander season 5, it was as a changed man. The once loquacious adolescent (played by John Bell) had transformed into a fierce Mohawk warrior, with demons clearing haunting him and a refusal to speak about what had sent him back to his Fraser family.
The phrase "Bury the hatchet", as discussed in this episode, refers to the literal burying of a hatchet to symbolize making peace and cement it among Native American tribes in the eastern United States as seen by Young Ian.
Geillis is born Gillian in the 20th century. It's not clear when she's born, but it has to be around the same time or a little earlier than Brianna and Roger. She's in her 20s or maybe early 30s in 1968. This is when Brianna, Claire, and Roger see her.
He is Ian's "son of his spirit", which could mean anything. Ian gave the boy the new name. He was called Digger first.
The actor was written out toward the end of the first half of season nine, when Ian was sentenced to time in prison. What's more, producers found a way to positively wrap Ian's story: his cellmate was former flame Mickey (fan favorite Noel Fisher).
Shameless, Season 7, Episode 9: Cameron Monaghan discusses the preparation methods he uses to accurately portray Ian's bipolar disorder in Season 7 of Shameless.
Most of Ian's storyline through season 4 is developing his bipolar disorder and the rekindling of his relationship with Mickey who is more willing to give Ian more of what he wants.
However, Young Ian turned to Claire with a confession. The baby could be his. It turns out Ian and Malva did sleep together.
Harding, who just turned 36, announced to his social media followers that he and his wife Sophie Hart have welcomed a baby.
In the novels, Marsali and Fergus apparently know. They haven't been told on-page, but Diana Gabaldon confirms that the two know that Claire, Bree, and Roger are time travelers.
Jamie denies having slept with her, but the damage to his and to Claire's reputation is done—and the bond between the Frasers and Malva is severed, until just a few weeks later, when Claire finds Malva murdered in the garden.
The haircutting was part of the process. Malva wanted to make Claire undesirable. She wanted to make Jamie turn to her instead of to his wife. We can get a sense of that from the way Claire worried about Jamie seeing her with the short, jagged hair.
Malva Christie might have only been introduced in Outlander Season 6, but she has a central role in the drama. The daughter of Tom Christie, she is both naive and sinister, and many Outlander fans have struggled to work out her true intentions.
