Outlander star Sam Heughan, others share Caitriona Balfe birthday wishes
It’s in moments like these you get a true sense of how much someone is adored, and judging from the messages from Caitriona’s co-stars, it’s clear that she is very much. Take, for example, the wonderful tribute that Sam Heughan shared on Instagram — the two often have a humor-based relationship on social media, but this is a reminder that there is so much genuine appreciation underneath.
To go along with Sam, we’ve also got some messages from the likes of Lauren Lyle (Marsali), Cesar Domboy (Fergus), and Sophie Skelton (Brianna). These are performers who know Caitriona extremely well, as they’ve been on set with her, off and on, for the better part of the past several years. Skelton wished Caitriona well in New York today due to her and Sam’s journey across the pond — they will be helping to promote the fifth season at New York Comic-Con. This marks the second straight year that the Starz series has a presence there, and you can read more about that over at the link here.
Since joining Outlander, Caitriona has been able to receive countless acclaim for playing Claire Fraser, including a multitude of Golden Globe nominations. She’s also been able to leverage her success into some other roles, including the latest one in Ford v. Ferrari, which is premiering just in time for awards season. It’s been a rather busy year for her and, more than likely, there will be many busy ones to come. Take, for example, 2020, when she will likely be shooting much of Outlander season 6.
As someone with a different October birthday, here’s to hoping that Caitriona has a spectacular one! We’re sure there will be travel involved, but some great things may await her in the Big Apple.
Of course, be sure to share your own Caitriona Balfe birthday message below, and remember to stick around for more news.
