Outlander season 7 premieres in a few hours! To wrap up this week before the premiere, we sat down with David Berry, John Bell, and Charles Vandervaart about their characters’ bond with Jamie and Claire, what the end of the show means to them, and how Charles managed to be the perfect William. Ready?
Here we go!
Unexpected Family Ties Are Key in Outlander Season 7

We don’t know how it happens, maybe it’s fate, but Lord John and William always end up entangled with the Fraser family, especially Jamie, and Claire. Outlander season 7 is no exception. David Berry and Charles Vandervaart discuss with us their two characters’ relationship with Jamie and Claire this season…
At the same time, John Bell shares what Young Ian’s relationship with Lord John and William will be like, and there are a few surprises! You definitely can’t miss their answers but don’t worry, they all earned an A+++ for managing to keep the suspense going and just giving us a few jaw-dropping treats, but no spoilers.
Charles Vandervaart has a huge challenge in Outlander season 7 to put himself in the shoes of William, but he exceeds it by far and Charles confesses to us what his secret is. A clue? He studied Sam Heughan’s mannerisms to emphasize his bond with Jamie. But Sam’s are not the only gestures he studied. You will find out more by watching the video!
To wrap up our interview, David Berry, John Bell, and Charles Vandervaart took a moment to reflect on what Outlander means to them and what it will be like when they stop playing their characters. Also, they send all their love to the fans for making this life-changing madness possible. And we couldn’t love them more.
