While Season 6 has yet to arrive, a new report has claimed that Virgin River Season 7 is happening â
though fans arenât buying it. Itâs safe to say that fans are restless ahead of the eventual
Virgin River Season 6 release date, though we still donât know when it will come to Netflix.
Thereâs been a constant search for leaks and spoilers, with upcoming plot points like weddings, surrogacies, and new relatives all foiled. Now, fans have been left suspicious over a report alleging that the show has been officially green-lit for a seventh season.
According to the Instagram fan account virginriverclub, the news was confirmed via the personal chef of Alexandra Breckenridge and Martin Henderson, who play Mel and Jack on the show. Season 6 began filming in February, with shoots still ongoing.
The chefâs original Instagram post caption reads: âWhat a dream itâs been getting to spend time in beautiful Vancouver nourishing the awesome Virgin River actors â Itâs a wrap until next season and I really canât wait!â
âNo confirmation as yet, but this is now showing on several fan accounts. So, I guess we will seeâŠâ one Reddit response mused, with a second agreeing, âThe source of the information has been published on this accountâs story. I believe itâs true otherwise this lady whoâs been in direct contact with Martin, Alex, and Zibby, wouldnât say it unless she got the wrong end of the stick.
âJust hope she wonât get in trouble for putting it out there before itâs been officially announced. She also said in her Instagram post that sheâs planning to go back to Vancouver for the next season.â
While the news hasnât been confirmed, Virgin River Season 7 certainly isnât out of the question.
Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith told Deadline, âThere are no plans of wrapping anything up. I think, as long as these characters are living, there are always going to be stories to tell, and thatâs an incredible opportunity for any showrunner.â
The Virgin River books also account for a hefty amount of plots that havenât even been touched, let alone expanded on. There are currently 22 books in the series.
Before anyone gets carried away, the next season still has existing questions to answer. New episodes arenât likely to arrive until 2025, but itâs expected that there will be a Season 6 time jump â though just what kind of time jump that will be remains to be seen.
