Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Succession season 4, episode 4!There have been multiple theories that Kerry is pregnant with Logan Roy’s kid, and Succession season 4 causes that theory to make even more sense. Although rumors of this storyline started circling back in season 3, more and more evidence has piled up that points to this shocking conclusion. Although Logan Roy is now gone, Kerry being pregnant with his child still has the potential to completely change the conclusion of Succession season 4.
Succession season 4 is the final season of HBO’s beloved comedy-drama series, with the show following the Roy family as they try to decide who will take over Waystar Royco. Although CEO Logan Roy has been the main obstacle between the Roy siblings and their seat on top of the Waystar Royco empire, things are finally starting to shift due to the death of Logan Roy in Succession season 4, episode 3. However, while Logan may be gone, his legacy isn’t, as he may soon be having another child with Kerry.
Succession Season 4 Episode 4 Supports The Kerry Pregnancy Theory
Although Logan Roy’s former assistant Kerry isn’t in Succession season 4, episode 4 much, her one big scene heavily implies that she is pregnant with Logan’s child. Kerry shows up at Logan Roy’s apartment while the Roys and Waystar Royco higher-ups are discussing what to do in the midst of Logan’s death, with Kerry’s appearance not being welcomed by Marcia. Kerry explains that she came to get some things from Logan’s room, which have already been put into a bag by Marcia. The bag spills, revealing various medications, with Roman Roy helping the distraught Kerry pick them up.
This small scene supports the Kerry pregnancy theories in several significant ways. Firstly, the fact that Kerry has belongings in Logan’s room confirms that they have been sleeping together. The various medication bottles make it seem like it was more than just sex, with these medications possibly helping Logan get Kerry pregnant. After all, season 3 confirmed that Logan Roy has been eating maca root, and this scene doubles down on that. While cleaning up the spilled bag, Kerry also informs Roman of an arrangement that Logan had set up. Although the dialogue is muffled, it is implied that Kerry and Logan had been planning something.
How Kerry Being Pregnant Could Change Succession
Kerry being pregnant hasn’t been confirmed, but with all of this evidence piling up, it’s possible that this storyline could seriously change Succession. Logan having another child could be his final middle finger to Kendall, Shiv, and Roman, as another child would split their inheritance even further. While this is bad enough for the Roy siblings, there is one wilder implication.
Although Logan Roy initially wanted Kendall to be the next CEO of Waystar Royco, it looks like Logan crossed Kendall’s name out from his final wishes. Thus, the amended version of Logan’s final wishes simply reads that he wants the next CEO of Waystar Royco to be “my son.” If Kerry is pregnant with Logan’s child, Logan could be preparing Waystar Royco to give him the CEO role when he comes of age, further locking Kendall, Shiv, and Roman out of the company. Lots of theories are going around regarding Kerry’s pregnancy, but they all conclude that the storyline will severely impact the story of Succession.
