Caitríona Balfe addresses the end of Outlander in amazing tribute
Outlander's Caitríona Balfe paid tribute to the show Outlander star Caitríona Balfe has expressed her deep appreciation for the Starz historical drama during a recent virtual gathering, reports the Scottish Daily Express. The Irish actress, who portrays Claire Fraser, reflected on the show's achievements and extended her gratitude towards the team behind it. Balfe remarked: "I think we've been so spoiled to have so many years of the show doing so well and being promoted so well. "Every single year, Starz have been so amazing and they've put these massive billboards up and it's almost like you start to get used to it, until you realise this may never happen again and it's a really amazing thing that we've been a part of." She also shared her best wishes with the cast of the upcoming prequel series Outlander: Blood of My Blood: "And I hope you guys get to have the same experiences for a very long time because it's really very special and it's not to be taken for granted." Balfe was speaking at The Gathering, an online event hosted by Starz in celebration of Outlander Day on June 1, which marks the publication date of the first book in Diana Gabaldon's acclaimed series. The event was organised by Starz to offer a sneak peek at the anticipated prequel series Outlander: Blood of My Blood, bringing together actors from both the original and upcoming series to discuss what fans can expect. Actress Harriet Slater, who portrays Ellen MacKenzie in Blood of My Blood, expressed her admiration following Balfe's tribute: "I just want to say congratulations because you've made such an incredible show, and like you said, it's so rare for a show to go on that long these days. "I feel like things are cancelled left, right and centre, so it's amazing that you've made this and it's so loved and I feel very proud to be joining, and we've got some big boots to fill." Sam Heughan, famed for his role as Jamie Fraser, also offered his commendations to the cast of Blood of My Blood: "We're actually going to be the biggest fans of your show. "Honestly, I can't wait to see all the younger versions of ourselves or the characters we love." He continued: "A big thank you to our showrunners and writers, Diana Gabaldon who... she was the beginning of all this stuff. Good luck and we're rooting for you." Outlander: Blood of My Blood is set to captivate audiences with a 10-episode run, delving into the romantic histories of Claire and Jamie's parents. Echoing its predecessor Outlander, the spin-off will span various time periods, showcasing Claire's parents' love story during World War One and the fervent relationship of Jamie's parents in 17th century Scotland. While Blood of My Blood isn't directly adapted from any of Gabaldon's novels, it draws upon the Outlander canon through anecdotes Jamie and Claire have recounted about their forebears. The absence of original material has allowed the scriptwriters greater creative freedom to experiment with the narrative and fill in some blanks, especially concerning Claire's parents Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine) and Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield). Claire was only aware that her parents perished in a car accident, but it appears that Blood of My Blood will provide a definitive resolution to their destiny.

Miss World beauty contest is embroiled in 'exploitation' row after Miss England competitor accuses organisers of using her to lure in wealthy investors
A Miss World beauty contestant has become embroiled in an exploitation row after accusing the organisers of using her as entertainment for wealthy investors. Milla Magee, the reigning Miss England, said she decided to take part in the Miss World 2025 pageant to promote her campaign to have CPR added to the school curriculum. However, she left before the grand final in India on Saturday, reportedly claiming she felt exploited and as though she and the other women were being used as entertainment for investors as a 'thank you', the Guardian first reported. In response to the claims, Miss World referred to 'false and defamatory statements' that it said were 'completely unfounded and inconsistent with the reality of her time with us'. Julia Morley, the organisation's chief executive, reportedly claimed in an interview with the Hindu newspaper that Magee left because she 'believed she didn't stand a chance in the competition'. Magee, 24, said on Saturday: 'What Julia said was vindictive and very bitter. And it was a ridiculous statement. I did not leave because I thought I was not going to win. I left because I wanted to stand for what I believe in and it didn't align with my values. 'And I would hate for another young girl to go into this system after watching me this past year and have to experience the same.' She added: 'I felt like I've been fed a false narrative of this system that promotes ''beauty with a purpose'', that's supposed to be about advocacy and what you champion for.' Instead, Magee claimed she found she and the other women were there based on looks and to entertain guests, with limited opportunity provided to promote their chosen causes. In one claim, the contestant alleged that a man approached her and said: 'Next time I'm in London or England, hook me up' - leaving Magee feeling uncomfortable. She added that she has received many messages from women who have also taken part in pageants, 'saying how they felt the exact same'.
