Caitriona Balfe and Tony McGill tied the knot in August 2019. The notoriously private couple, however, kept the wedding details close to their heart.
While they didn't announce the big news, People magazine reported the story, stating that the duo married at St. Mary's Church in Bruton, Somerset, in the United Kingdom.
The news media even claimed that Rev. Louis Beasley-Suffolk had officiated the wedding and performed a Roman Catholic service.
Supporting the reports, Balfe's long-time Outlander co-star, Sam Heughan, posted a picture of himself on Instagram. "Remarkable weekend," he wrote in the caption of the photo that saw him clad in a grey suit and a black tie.
Despite the publicity, Balfe confirmed her marriage only three months later.
When a fan asked why she wasn't uploading her wedding pictures, the famed actress bluntly replied, "Cause that was for me, my husband and my family."
She also apologized and thanked the follower for love.
Some more months later, she finally opened up about her secret ceremony.

It is not that Balfe and McGill were quiet only about their wedding day. In fact, they have remained private throughout their relationship.

Then, in August 2021, Balfe shocked her fans and followers by revealing she gave birth to her first child, a son, with her husband.
