Starz's Outlander brims with steamy and poignant romances. While watching love dramas unfold on-screen is fascinating, following the personal lives of the actors who portray the characters can be equally enthralling.

The actress behind Claire Fraser has been in a long-term relationship with Tony McGill, a Scottish music producer. The two were first spotted together in 2015 in a mutual friend's photo on social media. In 2019, Balfe and McGill got married. And in 2021, the couple welcomed their first son.

The on-screen husband and wife, César Domboy and Lauren Lyle, have long been linked together in reality. But even though the two actors share a profound friendship, they have never confirmed being romantically involved with each other. As for their personal lives, both Domboy and Lyle are very private people and keep low profiles.

Donnelly has been in a relationship with celebrated English playwright Jeremy Butterworth. The couple resides in London, where they're raising their two daughters.

They eventually got married in 2016 and had a daughter together a year later. Kahleen has worked on almost eighty projects, but he admits she's never cast her husband.

Simon Callow (Clarence Marylebone) & Sebastian Fox

This legendary British actor was one of the first public figures in the UK to openly reveal his homosexuality – he did so in 1988 via his book.
