‘Outlander’ Cast Then and Now: See How Jamie and Claire Have Changed Since Season 1 

<p id=”par-1_21″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/outlander”><em>Outlander</em></a><em> </em>just marked a major milestone. On August 9, the <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/love-outlander-10-steamy-dramas-droughtlander-2022.html/”>steamy period drama</a> celebrated the 10th anniversary of its series premiere. </p>

<p id=”par-2_79″>The Starz show follows the epic romance between Claire (Caitriona Balfe), a time-traveling doctor from the mid-20th century, and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/outlander-sam-heughan-almost-didnt-play-jamie-fraser-because-color-hair.html/”>Jamie (Sam Heughan)</a> a dashing Highlander from the 18th century. Over the past decades, fans have followed Jamie, Claire, and their family and friends as they crisscrossed the globe and hopped through time, from Scotland to France to the American Colonies and beyond. Over time, plenty has changed for the couple. But their love hasn’t diminished. Instead, it’s grown stronger. </p>

<p id=”par-3_79″>“The passion hasn’t changed. It’s deeper and it’s developed,” Heughan told <a href=”https://www.tvinsider.com/1147116/outlander-season-7b-jamie-claire-sam-heughan-caitriona-balfe-photo/”>TV Insider</a> earlier this year. “It’s not that Fraser fire that we had in season 1 because they’ve got older, they’re grandparents now. But Jamie says multiple times that he couldn’t live without her. And we’ve seen that. He’s the most codependent person we’ve ever met. They love each other, and their love has grown to such an extent that it’s grown a family and spans across continents.” </p>

<p id=”par-5_71″>Things have also changed in a major way for Jamie and Claire’s daughter, Brianna (Sophie Skelton), who was first seen on the show at the end of season 2. In season 7A, she and her husband Roger (Richard Rankin) returned to the 20th century so that their daughter could get medical treatment. But their family was ripped apart when their son Jemmy was kidnapped by Brianna’s coworker Rob Cameron (Chris Fulton). </p>

<p id=”par-6_97″>When we first met Roger in season 2, he’s an academic who falls hard for Bree when she visits Scotland with her mother. After Bree travels through the stones to warn Claire of her impending death at Fraser’s Ridge, Roger follows her. They eventually marry and start a family in 18th century America before returning to 1980s Scotland. But at the end of season 7A, Roger leaves Bree and goes back through the stones in an attempt to find his son. In a photo from one of <em>Outlander</em>’s upcoming episodes, we see him back in the 1700s.</p>

That includes his brother-in-law Ian Murray (Steven Cree). In this photo, Ian is looking a little grayer than in the past, but there’s no doubt his bond with Jamie is still strong. </p>

<p id=”par-8_46″>Jamie will also reconnect with his older sister Jenny, but Starz hasn’t released any photos of the older version of that character.
