Get ready for some more small-town charm and feel-good drama because Virgin River is officially in production for Season 7. Since its debut on Netflix in 2019, the romantic drama has consistently released a season each year, and it looks like the makers are committed to maintaining that schedule. All 10 episodes of Season 6 dropped on the streamer in December 2024, ending with a little cliffhanger that didn’t leave much to worry about for the fans, given that Season 7 had already been ordered months ahead of the Season 6 premiere. The latest update comes from the show’s star, Martin Henderson, who plays Jack Sheridan, one half of the show’s central couple.
“Hi guys, it’s a very auspicious moment. It is day one of season seven of Virgin River,” Henderson said in a video posted to his Instagram on March 12. “I’m here in my trailer, about to go to work and I saw this lovely little gift from my friends at Netflix,” he continued while unwrapping a black gift box. “A little box of treats and I thought I’d share it with you guys just to let you know just how much they care,” Henderson said as he reveals each of the gifts – rechargeable hand warmers, lip balm, face moisturizer and a little carry-on box for the items.
Henderson then proceeded to share his enthusiasm for the next season, adding, “I’m really excited. I want to make this the best season yet for you guys, because none of us would be here if it wasn’t for you people who love and support the show. I am so grateful, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you. I hope we’re going to make a ripper of a show for you this season. Stay tuned!” The actor wrapped up his fan appreciation for the beloved series in the caption, writing that he’s “stocked to be back.” Filming is expected to last into June 2025, meaning that Season 7 could likely arrive on Netflix by late 2025 or at the latest in early 2026.
What To Expect From ‘Virgin River’ Season 7
Season 7 will pick up exactly where Season 6 left off, with no time jump, ensuring fans won’t have to wait long for answers about Charmaine’s (Lauren Hammersley) whereabouts after her absence from the wedding. The finale leaves her fate uncertain as Jack visits her home to check on her, only to be left stunned by what he discovers upon entering her twins’ nursery. Fans have theorized that whatever’s going on with her is likely linked to her gangster baby daddy, Calvin (Josh Blacker).
Charmaine’s story will likely continue as an ongoing subplot in Season 7, while the main focus remains on Jack and Mel (Alexandra Breckenridge) as they settle into married life on the farm and face the new challenges that come their way, including making the big decision to adopt Marley’s (Rachel Drance) baby. The season will also continue the dramatic love triangle between Brie (Zibby Allen), Brady (Benjamin Hollingsworth), and Mike (Marco Grazzini) which became even more complex after Mike’s proposal to Brie at the wedding.
There is no release date for Virgin River Season 7, but with production now underway, more updates are expected in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.
