Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe have been fighting off romance rumors for quite awhile now. Although fans' gesture of shipping the "Outlander" Season 3 co-stars was initially sweet and harmless, it did get to the point of cyber-bullying. The unfortunate victim of these mean comments and accusations was the "First Light" actor's rumored real-life girlfriend Mackenzie Mauzy.

It's no secret that fans are one of the many reason to make and break a love team. What makes the Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe tandem work is that the fans are supporting their on-screen romance in the historical time travel television drama series, to the point that they want the "Outlander" Season 3 co-stars to be together off-screen as well.

Although their romantic relationship was never confirmed, fans are still aggressively shipping Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe and will not allow anyone to ruin their dream pair. Unfortunately for the shippers, it seems like a certian Mackenzie Maunzy has caught Sam Heughan's eyes and their hopes for a real-life romance for the "First Light" actor and Caitriona Balfe are fading slowly.

Clearly, the fans were not happy about it and have expressed their anger towards the 28-year-old "Into The Woods" actress in social media. Mackenzie Maunzy has been a subject of online bullying after being linked to Sam Heughan. While the "Brother's Keeper" actress remained mum about the mean comments, the "Outlander" Season 3 actor has had enough and tried to put an end to it.

"Shameful behaviour by many on social media recently. It's disgusting and needs to stop. Spineless bullying. Stop. Now," Sam Heughan posted on Twitter. The "Outlander" Season 3 actor and Caitriona Balfe have multiple times denied the claims that they are dating, but obviously the fans are still refusing to acknowledge that they are nothing more than just friends.
