Phone Tree Alert — Virgin River Season 6 Welcomes Two Very Important

New Residents. Jessica Rothe and Callum Kerr will join the series in flashbacks

as Sarah and Everett, aka Mel’s (Alexandra Breckenridge) parents,

when they met and fell in love in the 1970s.

What else is happening this season? Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith may give us a hint about what’s next for Mel, Jack (Martin Henderson), and the rest of the small-town crew.

Check out a new photo of Breckenridge and Henderson back on set below, and read on for more on Sarah, Everett, and the other new cast members in Season 6. What’s in store for Virgin River Season 6?

If there’s one thing Smith can promise, it’s that “babies and wedding bells will never be off the table in Virgin River.”

“Mel and Jack will move forward in their parenting journey while also turning Lilly’s farm into their ultimate dream home,” he told Tudum. As fans who watched the Season 5 finale know, Mel and Jack have decided to purchase the property.

Season 6 will take place a few months after the Christmas-themed episodes of Season 5. When we return to our favorite town, it will be “deeper into spring,” Smith said. Since spring is known for being a time of growth and change, there will be plenty of surprises in store for our favorite characters.

Appearing in flashbacks set mostly around 1972, Sarah is a witty, free-spirited girl from the big city with a strong passion for activism, who is trying to avoid the conventional and traditional life of a young woman in the 70s. Always up for an adventure, she can’t help but pursue a chance spark with a handsome musician who may be her ill-fated soul mate.
