Catholics here in Europe we wear our wedding ring on the right hand. Plus it goes deeper for Catholics. Remember Jamie is a "Papist" catholic.
Claire's wedding rings consist of one gold ring, given to her by her first husband, Frank Randall, and one silver ring, given to her by her second husband, Jamie Fraser. From the time that she marries Jamie in 1743, Claire wears the silver ring on her right hand and continues to wear the gold on her left.
Throughout Outlander, Claire was seen wearing two wedding rings – both when she married her second husband Jamie and when she returned to the future and reconciled with Frank Randall (Tobias Menzies). Claire steadfastly refused to take off the gold wedding band from Frank after travelling back through time.
Usually wedding rings are worn on the right hand. In some countries, however, they are worn on the left hand, like in France, Italy, Sweden, Scotland and Belgium.

At first, Claire is focused on getting back to her own time. A mistake leads to her being arrested by Black Jack Randall, and she has no choice but to marry Jamie to protect her life. That's the point things start to change for her. It's the point where she fully allows herself to follow her heart.
Frank had affairs. There's a moment where she calls him out on the affairs and he comments that he thought he'd been most discreet. This is confirmation for many that he's had affairs, but what if making Claire believe he had affairs was just his way of covering up what he was really doing.
Rings that are worn on the right ring finger are often associated with ideas of love and relationships, creativity, beauty, and romance. Sometimes men give their wives rings like eternity rings as a way to commence a certain milestone in the marriage, and wives often will wear it on the right ring finger as well.
If a husband gives his wife a right-hand ring, it symbolizes a renewal of wedding vows or anniversaries. They may also serve as promise rings for dedicated partners or those taking a vow of chastity.
This is because it is believed that the right hand represents virtue and honor, just as the Bible mentions Jesus sitting at the right hand of God. In Jewish tradition, during the wedding ceremony, the wedding ring is placed on the index finger of the right hand.
