Outlander fans love Caitriona Balfe as one of the two romantic leads in the time-travelling drama. However, some viewers are curious about her outside of the popular show – here’s everything the star has revealed about her own romantic life.
Is Outlander star Caitriona Balfe married?
Fans love the romantic storyline between Claire Fraser (played by Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) in the time-travelling drama.
Following their story from when Claire first travelled back in time to spending decades apart, the series focuses around the duo.
Part of its success also means viewers are interested in the personal lives of the stars behind the roles as well.
Balfe is often quite private about her romantic life, but in the past few years she has opened up about her husband.

She is married to music producer Tony McGill, who she reportedly met through her work on Outlander.
According to People, the pair tied the knot back in August 2019 after first getting engaged back in 2018.
Speaking to the Inquirer back in February 2020, Balfe also opened up about her husband and her wedding.
When asked if the show has made her more romantic, she explained: “It definitely has to rub off, you know.
“I feel very lucky that, through this show, I managed to meet the love of my life. So the show probably made me more of a romantic.”
She also opened up about the pair getting married in 2019 during the filming of season five of Outlander.
Balfe explained: “The only thing I would say about my wedding is, I managed to squeeze it in on a weekend during production.
“What was most beautiful about it is that I had my very close family and friends there.
