Claire Littleton is a
Fictional Character on the
ABC television series ''
Lost '' played by
Emilie De Ravin .
Claire, a young
Australia n woman, has a job at "Fish 'n' Fry". She becomes
Pregnant , and she intends to give the child up for
Adoption after the baby's father, Thomas, walks out on her. Her plans to give the baby up are altered by her own guilt and the involvement of a psychic, Mr. Richard Malkin, who hounds Claire for several months, telling her she must raise the child herself or else great danger will come to the baby. When she refuses to listen to his insistent demands, the psychic appears to recant and tells her he has found a couple in
Los Angeles for the baby, and arranges the flight for her. After the crash, Claire believes that the psychic may have known of the airplane's impending disaster.
At the airport she is at a coffee shop, sitting at a table handling her cup shakingly. The pilot walks over to her to comfort her. He tells her that he sees pregnant women all the time on long flights. He said that he will make the ride extra smooth for her. She later tells him about the psychic she met. The pilot tells Claire about his mother. He says that his mother went to a psychic too. The psychic told her to marry a guy with a name that started with "R". She went for "Roger". She dumped her husband Bernard and she never found a man named Roger. Bernard then made millions of dollars in later years after the separation.
Claire is ignored and avoided by the other survivors after the crash. Claire claims it's because she's a ticking timebomb of responsibility. With the exception of Jack, who checks her physical condition, only
Charlie approaches Claire frequently, and they become friends. She and Charlie are kidnapped by
Ethan Rom . Charlie is found first, soon after the abduction, and Claire wanders back to the castaways two weeks later, still pregnant but with no memory of anything after the crash.
In
Maternity Leave , we see in flashbacks what happens to Claire after she was kidnapped by
Ethan . Claire is taken to a medical Dharma station, where she is given medication for the baby. She is often in a drugged state of mind. Ethan tells her that they are going to take the baby and return Claire to camp. She begins to trust Ethan with the decision to keep the baby. Ethan shows her the room where the baby will sleep once born, which contains various baby furniture. Among the furniture is the same Oceanic Airlines carousel she saw in her dream in
Raised By Another that plays "Catch A Falling Star", which is the same song she requested the adoptive parents in Sydney play for the child. Then, when Claire is sleeping, she awakes to see a young girl, who tells her that they are going to cut the baby out of her and kill her. Claire panics and the girl uses chloroform on her. She wakes up in the jungle and sees Rousseau. Rousseau knocks her unconscious so the "Others" cannot find her, and then takes her back to camp.
She gives birth to a boy,
Aaron . Kate has to deliver the baby because Jack is in the midst of trying to save
Boone 's life. Following the birth Claire has trouble trusting others with Aaron. Nonetheless, Charlie continues to remain ever-present, helping Claire with Aaron when she needs it. Claire wears a necklace with the
Chinese Character 愛 ("ai"), which means "
Love ".
When Mr. Eko, a tail-section survivor, learns of her son's name, he notes that the Biblical Aaron was the brother of
Moses . He asks her why she named her son Aaron and she replies that she simply liked the name. When Eko sees some Virgin Mary statues that Charlie had been keeping, he reveals to Claire that it contains heroin. Soon after, Claire confronts Charlie about the drugs, saying that she remembers something about him being a drug addict. Claire asks Charlie to stay away from her and Aaron. Charlie believes that Aaron must be baptized and steals the baby. This causes Claire to trust him even less, but she asks Eko to baptize her and Aaron. She does not interact with Charlie much anymore, but is often seen with Locke who helps her with the baby.
When Aaron falls suddenly ill, Claire asks
Libby (a
Clinical Psychologist ) to help her remember what happened to her when she was taken by Ethan. Claire begins to have frightening flashbacks of what happened to her. She sets off with Kate and finds the place she was taken to, a medical Dharma station. Afterward, she learns that the girl that saved her might have been Alexandra, Rousseau's daughter, who was abducted by the others at a young age.
