Outlanders Marsali Fraser has become a fan favourite since she was introduced to the series and fans are curious to know more about her including her age.
Marsali Fraser played by Lauren Lyle was first introduced to Outlander back in season three as one of Jamie Frasers Sam Heughan step daughters from his marriage to Laoghaire MacKenzie Nell Hudson. She fell in love with Fergus Fraser César Domboy with the pair eventually getting married despite the age gap between the two of them. Heres everything you need to know about Marsali and her age in the Starz drama series. Marsali was born in 1751 and in the third novel Voyager she is 15 years old with Jamie and her mother Laoghaire tying the knot the year before in 1765.
In comparison her husband Fergus is double her age at 30 years old with Jamie unsure about the union between them.In season six is set in 1773 which means Marsali is now 22 and Fergus is 37 in comparison. However their marriage continues to go strong despite the obstacles they face including having many children and his alcoholism .Scottish actress Lyle is much older than her onscreen counter-part with the actress born in 1993 and currently 29.Season three was made in 2016 when Lyle would have been 22 and still quite a bit older than the teenage Marsali.
Interestingly Lyles onscreen mother Hudson is only three years older than her but portrayed a much older character who was born in 1726 and in season three was 47 years old. Lyle and Domboy recently addressed the transition for Marsali and Fergus from teen lovers to their adult relationship in season six. Domboy said I think its well written in the show if you think about it. It was pretty much all there at the end of the season five. You have the abduction of Marsali and all this. Their life changes at this point.
Theres also a scene that sadly we do not see. I wish we saw in the TV show which is the fire at Fergus mill Their life is always changing. I think it was there they the writers are putting little clues here and there that it was fragile.Lyle went on to say I think we were craving it as well the cool young couple that do not fight was great and so fun to do. We had great chemistry from when we met we became good friends quickly and so that was really fun. But there comes a point as actors where you really really want to be challenged and feel like and go somewhere different.
