Outlander stars Sam Heughan, Richard Rankin and Sophie Skelton were among the stars at the show’s season six premiere. The trio could be seen beaming as they posed at The Royal Festival Hall in London, but Claire Fraser star Caitriona Balfe had to miss the event.

Caitriona took to Twitter last night to open up about her decision not to attend.

Posting in view of her 532,000 followers, she asked for some “understanding” as a new mother.

She wrote: “To all those saying it’s shameful I’m not there in person, I understand you’re disappointed but I also ask for some understanding as a new mom.

“I’m trying to do the best I can and not being able to fly across the world like I used to is a change but we are adapting….

“I’ll be there virtually for red carpet and panel and it’s not @Outlander_STARZ ‘s fault …

“We’re all trying to give you all the best experience we can in new and challenging circumstances.”

Following her update, the star was inundated with support from her followers.

Sam, who plays Jamie Fraser, walked the red carpet tonight with other cast members.

Other stars of the new series at the event included Lauren Lyle, Steven Cree and Cesar Domboy

Alexander Vlahos was also there ahead of joining the cast in the news series as Allan.
