Sam Heughan, Caitriona Balfe Dating: ‘Outlander’ Stars Spotted Holding Hands Behind The Scenes?

Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe have been plagued by countless relationship rumors because of their undeniable chemistry on the Starz time traveler series, "Outlander." While both stars have previously denied to having any special relationship with each other, a new report claims that the rumored couple has been spotted holding hands.

"Outlander" stars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan are currently in South Africa to film scenes for the third season of the Starz drama. While the stars have countlessly slammed rumors about their relationship in real life, a new report from Radar Online suggests that the couple may be simply hiding their relationship from the public.

Heughan cryptically said in an earlier interview that if he and Balfe were dating, then the public would not know about it. This led to speculations that there is much more between them, especially since their recent social media post sparked, even more, dating rumors between the "Outlander" stars.

"I think if me and Caitriona were together, we wouldn't say," said Heughan.

An insider also told the publication that Heughan and Balfe were spotted holding hands behind the set of "Outlander" Season 3. The source added that while they may refer to each other as best friends, their actions show otherwise.

Indeed, Balfe and Heughan's chemistry intensifies as the seasons of "Outlander" go by. Their chemistry was once again exemplified as Starz released the teaser trailer for Season 3, reports Radio Times.

The "Outlander" Season 3 trailer shows Claire and Jamie separated by time and reflects how they are living their lives away from each other. Their daughter, Brianna, has already grown by that time under the guidance of Claire's husband, Frank.

"Outlander" Season 3 premieres this September on Starz.
