 Sam Heughan reveals heartbreaking family loss while filming Outlander



Well  it is two things  the book. It is a love letter to Scotland  you know the West Highland way it is the walk that I did and the other half of the book is a memoir he said.  Sam then reflected on one of the more personal and poignant experiences of his life. 


Sam Heughan sends heartfelt message to Outlander co star Caitriona Balfe for special reason The loss of my father actually during the beginning of season one of shooting Outlander  was a big moment in my life  he explained. 


I did not know him, he left when I was eighteen months old but going to see him in his last moments and vsit him and learn a bit more about it definitely had an effect on me, and I think just writing about that has been quite cathartic. During the podcast, Sam also spoke about his childhood which in many ways mirrors his role as Jamie Fraser. 

I was born and brought up in southwest Scotland on the grounds of an ancient castle. I used to play in there and imagine myself in this castle and I certainly was obsessed with the Arthurian legends and Robert the Bruce and here I am essentially playing a Scottish highland warrior a king of men. Speaking about how important it is for children to explore the outdoors and experience historic sights he added.
