In an interview with Parade in October 2018, Balfe addressed the rumors,
There’s a small vocal group that really wanted it, which is just a testament to the characters that we portray, that the love story is so inspiring and so aspirational that people just really wanted to believe in it. And that’s a nice thing. But I think things are pretty clear now that I’m engaged to someone else. Everyone gets it now.
While Balfe is leading a happy married life with her hubby, Heughan still remains single at present. But, it doesn’t mean that the actor didn’t have any romantic affairs in the past. Sam previously dated actress MacKenzie Mauzy. He was also rumored to be dating Cody Kennedy and a budding actress Amy Shiels.
