Caitriona Balfe, best known for portraying Claire Fraser on Outlander, recently became a mother to a baby boy. The Irish actress is known to be private about her personal life, and thus the news of her giving birth came as a surprise to fans who had no idea that she was pregnant.

The 41-year old star shared the news of her newborn on Instagram on August 18. Caitriona Balfe expressed her gratitude in a lengthy caption. She mentioned:

"I've been off socials for a while as I was taking some time to enjoy cooking up this little human …. We are so grateful for this little soul ….that he chose us as his parents. I'm in awe of him already and can't help stare and wonder at all the possibilities of who he will become…"

Other Irish actresses congratulated her on her post, including Ruth Bradley (of 2019's The Informer fame) and Aisling Franciosi (of Game of Thrones fame).
