Rumors are swirling that Bjorn may find a new love in Vikings season 4.

'Vikings' Season 4 Spoilers: Aethelwulf Is Back [PHOTO], What Is The Prince Of Wessex Up To?

Denmark's prince is a father by Porunn (Gaia Weiss) and a lover of Torvi (Georgia Hirst), but there is an overwhelming amount of (unconfirmed) speculation that Ragnar's (Travis Fimmel) oldest son will have a new love interest next spring.

Once Upon a Time's Dianne Doan will join the cast in season 4, bringing the Norseman thier first taste of the Far East as a Chinese traveler named Yidu. The character's arrival is a major lynchpin for the plotline and her presence will undoubtedly activate Ragnar's insatiable wanderlust once more. However, the Kattegat newcomer could also pique Bjorn's (Alexander Ludwig) interests.

Unfortunately, these rumors are just that - rumors. Viewers shouldn't get their hopes up until series creator Michael Hirst or a member of the cast actually confirms a romantic link between the traveler and the warrior.

While the Vikings' births, deaths, and heartbreaks play out in the background, Ragnar will have his hands full with Paris, Wessex, and Scandinavia. The King of Denmark is on course for a head on collision with Rollo (Clive Standen) down on the Seine, but it seems the City of Lights won't be the only land in contention during the 16-episode run. Aethelwulf (David Murray) and Wessex will reenter the story while Scandinavia's King Finehair (Peter Franzen) and Halfdan the Black (Jasper Paakkonen) will stir up trouble as well.
