New to the fandom, and stumbled across your site. I see the Twitter comments on his posts of him being married or gay or whatever. Is there any point of making a simple comment that it isn't true, or does that just feed into it?
Hi, Anon, welcome! Sam HAS ALREADY addressed the he's secretly with Cait rumors and the gay rumors. On the positive side--it put the TRUTH in writing for posterity. On the negative side--it did nothing to stop Extreme Shippers or assorted Haters and Trolls from continuing to spite ship, hate, or troll. A case of dammed if you do, dammed if you don't.
Extreme Shippers, (who refused to believe when I told them my sources confirmed Sam and Cait were not a real life couple, when Diana Gabaldon told them, when EVERYONE associated with Sam and Cait told them), said that they would ONLY believe Sam and Cait weren't together in real life IF Sam and Cait said so THEMSELVES on VIDEO. Weeelllll, that's exactly what Sam and Cait did YEARS ago.

Aaaand, of course Extreme Shippers cried and wailed, and gnashed their teeth BUT, as they always do, they managed to discredit the video, reset the SamCait ship's course, and off they sailed to ship another day and month, and year, and YEARS.
Even after the infamous video, it STILL wasn't enough when Sam FINALLY posted a PUBLIC pic of him with his then serious girlfriend, Mackenzie Mauzy (2016-2018) right on his own Instagram account. Or that Cait herself and everyone who knows Sam "liked" the relationship-confirming, "Instagram official" pic...
NOPE, those who didn't want to believe it, didn't.
And even after Cait literally MARRIED her long time beau, Tony McGill (who I FIRST told the fandom about in 2014), the last of the Extreme Shippers still held on and hold on like barnacles stuck at the bottom of the long ago sunken SamCait ship.
As for the gay rumors, tons has been written about this and I've already DEBUNKED that many times (including posting source info of people who know Sam personally) BUT Sam himself has also ALREADY set the record straight (pun very much intended) ;-).
PS. There's nothing wrong with being gay, Sam simply isn't, so it's wrong to spread lies about him. That's all.
Here is an interview he did where he addressed it directly. Click link for full interview, but here's an excerpt

"Boring and homosexual never go together."
And most recently, when Sam put out a statement about the harassment he has been receiving for so long and false allegations about him, including the gay rumors.
So there you have it. Sam has addressed BOTH himself, directly and publicly. There's nothing more he can do. Sane, rational people said "Thanks for clearing that up, Sam, we believe you." And went on with their lives. People who are out of touch with reality and/or don't want the truth and/or are trolls and/or are fandom assholes, said Sam must be lying, it's a conspiracy by the powers that be, and all sorts of convoluted mumbo jumbo that only tinhatters, haters, and trolls still spread. Simple as that.
ALL of the info is out there at this point, including on my blog. Irrefutable evidence that Sam is not married to Cait, has never been romantically involved with Cait, and that Sam is not gay.
So, anyone in the Outlander fandom in 2021 has a choice to either be in the sane part of the fandom or the um, opposite of sane part of the fandom. Choose wisely, Anon.
None so blind as those who will not see...
"I see," said the blind man, but he never did.
