"Love Beyond the Stones: Delving into Sam Heughan's Dating Scene - Who's His Leading Lady?"




 There’s no denying that when heartthrob Sam Heughan (a.k.a. Outlander’s Jamie Fraser) first graced our screens, the first question on everyone’s lips was, ‘Who is he?’, followed by, ‘Is he single?’.


Heughan has kept a relatively low profile about his love life, decidedly keeping any romantic interests out of the public spotlight. Yet, over time, a few paramours have been clear, from actress Amy Sheils to model Monika Clarke.


Despite his romances, in 2023, the Love Again star said that his life was not unlike that of his character in the movie (looking for love). Heughan is single once again and has never married, maintaining his space as one of Hollywood’s most eligible bachelors.


And yes, he is looking. In an interview with People, Heughan opened up about his search for love.“I’ve done all of the gift-giving and turning up when least expected, but, so far, I’m still looking,” he said.


He has also mentioned that he is often in Scotland (up to 10 months a year) and travelling for work, which can get in the way of finding the ‘One’.


Here, we count down this hunky Scottish man’s relationship history, in the hope that he will eventually find his ‘Claire’.


Is Sam Heughan Dating Caitriona Balfe?


Sam Heughan has worked with Irish actress and model Caitriona Balfe on Outlander for nearly a decade now, so it’s only fair that fans have often theorised about their relationship online.


Given the two play wildly in love pairing Claire and Jamie Fraser in the series, and their chemistry on screen is so palpable, many wondered if there wasn’t something going on behind closed doors.


However, the two co-stars have always maintained that they are just friends, and almost best friends at that. The pair attended the 2023 Austin Television Festival together, with Balfe explaining that when the show started they decided to always have “each other’s backs” and it’s been like that ever since.


“We like to be very prepared and focused but then we like to have a lot of fun. We like to not take ourselves too seriously even though we take the work seriously,” she said. Adding, “As our lives have gotten more complicated and busy, we may not see each other as much as we used to, but that core and that friendship and that base that we have has never changed.”
