It’s hard to believe that Outlander will soon reach the finish line. Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) have been on our screens since 2014, when the time-traveling romance introduced the World War II nurse and the 18th-century Highlander. Jamie and Claire met when they were in their twenties, and they’re still going strong over 30 years later in the show’s timeline. Needless to say, Jamie and Claire have grown quite a bit together between Seasons 1 and 8, as have the actors.

So, Swooon is taking a look back at Jamie and Claire and all of the other show’s beloved couples, comparing them then and now. Unless you prepped for Season 8 by doing a full rewatch — we commend you if you did — it’s probably been a while since you watched the beginning of every couple’s journey.
