The character subsequently popped up on The Vampire Diaries Season 7 when Alaric managed to bring her back from the dead.
However, it was not the Jo he knew and loved. We did get a glimpse of Jo on The Vampire Diaries Season 8 Episode 16, and she was apparently at peace watching Alaric and their daughters moving on.
But now she’s back in the land of the living, and it’s going to cause a lot of problems.
Have a look at the photos below, and be sure to hit the comments with your theory on what brings Jo back.
