"Outlander" stars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan have been plagued with dating rumors because of their onscreen and behind-the-scenes chemistry. It is no wonder that fans and viewers are hoping that these two will get together in real life, especially because of their undeniable chemistry when they do intimate scenes for the show.

In a recent interview on "Wake Up with Taylor," Caitirona Balfe admitted that she is not likely to fall in love with her co-star, Sam Heughan, reports People. Despite their steamy sex scenes in "Outlander," Balfe said that she and Heughan are only acting.

"You know, I feel very lucky, Sam and I have an amazing bond, we're really great friends - but, you know, it's acting," said Balfe.

Balfe also shared that developing feelings for Heughan while filming intimate scenes is unlikely to happen given that they film those kinds of scenes in front of a lot of people. Heughan also said that his relationship with Balfe is nothing more than friends and while it saddens him to hear such kinds of rumors about them, he feels that they have done a good job acting for "Outlander."

In "Outlander" Season 2, Jamie and Claire recently made love after Jamie found out that his nemesis, Black Jack, was still alive. Heughan told The Hollywood Reporter that Jamie was happy to learn that Black Jack was still alive because he can take control of his life again.

"It's like finally he's been released from Randall's nightmare. His cure comes from a very strange place, from Randall himself," Heughan said.

"Outlander" Season 2 airs Saturdays on Starz.
