The mother of a Hollywood star is over the moon over her recent engagement.

Monaghan native and ‘Outlander’ star Catriona Balfe had a busy festive season, as she was not only nominated for a Golden Globe, but also got engaged to boyfriend Tony McGill.  Balfe paid a brief visit to Ireland before spending Christmas with Tony in Australia, where he popped the question.

At the Golden Globes last night, where she was nominated for Best Actress in a TV Drama for her role in Outlander, she was spotted wearing a diamond and sapphire engagement ring.  Her mother Ann says she can’t wait to start planning the big day.

Mummy Balfe’s excitement on Caitriona’s engagement is so adorable!

Such preciousness in a minute and a half! ❤️❤️❤️

Had this in my draft for ages because I didn’t want to post lest I read less than civilized comments against CB’s mum. Posting now because I heard the original site is no longer available and I received a request for the audio (that I couldn’t find in my files). So, here it is.

Reposted from @vanityfair Caitríona Balfe may have had a late start in Hollywood (at the not-exactly-old age of 29), but she credits her conviction and integrity for her eventual success. “I knew that I had a passion for acting,” Balfe tells V.F. “I knew it was something that, if I got the chance to do it, I would attack it with everything I had.” Read the full cover story now at the link in our bio.

“I knew that I had a passion for acting,” she says. “I knew it was something that, if I got the chance to do it, I would attack it with everything I had.” Balfe was aware she was at a disadvantage as a late starter, even at the not-exactly-old age of 29. Still, she began to build a career, commencing with the smallest of roles in J.J. Abrams’s Super 8. “I didn’t speak and I was the dead mom,” she says with a laugh, “but at least I spent a day with J.J. You kind of feel like, Well, if that person who’s really incredible and successful gives you a sort of seal of approval, then maybe that means something.”

The smaller jobs kept coming for a while, but then things dried up. One day, Balfe was standing in a dog park with a friend when her manager called her and dumped her. At that point, she hadn’t worked in five or six months. At first, “He kept telling me, ‘You have to wear the dress and put the makeup on and do the hot-girl thing.’ And it was so not me,” she says. “I’m glad I knew that I wanted to do it with integrity, if that makes any sense.”

CONGRATULATIONS, CAITRIONA BALFE!!
