Sharing a link to an earthquake emergency fundraiser in Morocco, Caitríona wrote: “Please help if you can.” The star is notoriously private and rarely posts on the platform, however, she has used Instagram in the past to advocate for charities close to her heart, as well as reveal Outlander updates.
Before her latest post, Caitríona was last active on Instagram in July, when she shared a heartbreaking tribute to the late singer Sinéad O’Connor following her death.

Caitríon’s absence from social media over the past two months could be related to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes continuing in Hollywood. Guild members are currently encouraged to refrain from promoting any of their film or television projects on social media, depending on whether they fall under certain contracts.

Maril also explained that they had always intended for the seventh series to have a mid-season break. “We certainly built it assuming it would.” [break] after episode eight,” she said. “I know it’s really hard for the fans. I don’t know all the reasons for these divisions. But all I can say is buckle up. The wait will be worth it.
“It gives us more time to think about things! Honestly, Outlander is about anticipation. Starting with season one, the seven episodes it took for Jamie and Claire to get married, and the anticipation this season is when Jamie sees his son William. In Outlander is all about anticipation, and so is Droughtlander!”
