Sarah is Jack Shephard's ex-wife. She is a teacher. ("The Hunting Party").
Accident and meeting Jack
Sarah was driving the other car in an accident that killed Shannon Rutherford's father, Adam Rutherford, a little over 3 years before Oceanic Flight 815 crashed. She was engaged to Kevin at the time of her car accident.
She was miraculously cured after Jack returned from running and talked to Desmond. This led to them getting married. It is unknown whether she used Jack's last name, but it is assumed she did. ("Man of Science, Man of Faith")
Sarah has a pregnancy scare; the scare was that the child was not Jack's. She later left Jack because he was overworking, and she was seeing another man. ("The Hunting Party")
Divorce
Sarah, pregnant, visits Jack in the emergency room.
Sarah and Jack ultimately got divorced; Jack bitterly contested the divorce and eventually began stalking her trying to discover the identity of her lover. Jack eventually accused his own father and assaulted him in public, after finding his father' telephone number in Sarah's cell phone call records. Juliet told Jack that Sarah is now happy. ("A Tale of Two Cities")
After the rescue of the Oceanic Six
Sarah arrived at the emergency room where Jack was being treated, stating that Jack still had Sarah listed as his emergency contact person. At this point Sarah was visibly pregnant.
She was aware of his recently-developed drinking habit and was highly disturbed by it, as she asked if he was "drinking again". ("Through the Looking Glass, Part 1")
Trivia
- "Sarah" is also the alias given to Ana Lucia by Christian in "Two for the Road". She calls Christian "Tom".

- In Lost: Via Domus, her maiden name is given as Wagner. While the game itself is considered non-canon, this could possibly be canonical information, due to the fact that it deals with a currently existing character. At the moment, it is still unconfirmed.
