Devotees of Virgin River are buzzing with theories that Mel Monroe (portrayed by Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson) might be heading towards a bustling household before the show wraps up. The Netflix smash-hit trails the journey of Mel, a nurse practitioner who arrives in a quaint Northern California town to heal from a poignant loss but ends up finding unexpected romance. After falling head over heels for ex-Marine turned bar proprietor Jack, the duo eventually get hitched in season six's finale, which dropped on the streamer earlier this month.
Yet amid the joyous union, the series cliffhanger left fans agog with bombshell twists, particularly the mystifying vanishing act of Charmaine (Lauren Hammersley), a new mother to twins. In a jaw-dropping moment, Jack uncovers something astounding at her abode as the final moments of the last episode unfold, while Mel is taken aback when Marley (Rachel Drance) voices her wish for her child to be under Mel and Jack's wing, reports the Mirror US . All fingers point to Virgin River's most cherished pair soon having three little ones in their nest, but some eagle-eyed viewers reckon the brood could swell even more.
A fan-fuelled forecast session on Reddit saw one enthusiast postulate: "It will be 3-4 babies in one day adoption." Eliciting a response from another fan reminiscing about Mel's aspirations shared with Jack in the initial season: "Living in a farm with a lot of babies. That was Mel's dream when she told Jack in season one I think!" Moreover, another viewer presented an elaborate hypothesis speculating on the ultimate fate of the series, bolstered by tantalising clues.
An observant Virgin River enthusiast has shared a theory on the show's future, noting: "My prediction is that they're basically setting them up to get all the babies they thought they were going to get two seasons ago," and goes on to say, "I think Charmaine is toast and those boys are going to Jack and Mel as they thought was going to happen before he found out he wasn't the father." The speculation doesn't end there, with the fan adding: "Then I'm guessing the woman who wants to give Mel and Jack her baby is pregnant with a girl..
. Which will be a stand in for the one Mel lost. Like I literally think her baby will be born on Mel's original due date.
" A curveball further fuels speculation: "The only thing I'm not sure sure about is if Mel will also become pregnant again and they end up with four kids." Sabrina Carpenter fans can stream 'A Nonsense Christmas' with Sky's new £15 TV and Netflix bundle . The Essential TV plan includes more than 100 Sky channels including Sky Atlantic, plus subscriptions to Netflix and Discovery+.
Echoing this sentiment, another viewer ventured: "They will have Marley's baby, Charmaine's two babies and Mel will get surprised with her own pregnancy . Side note: Jack's sister [Brie (Zibby Allen)] will be pregnant with Brady's (Benjamin Hollingsworth) baby." A third fan also anticipates a quartet of children for Mel and Jack, but through a different scenario, guessing: "Here I am thinking she's getting Lizzie's (Sarah Dugdale) baby.
" Amidst these forecasts, another comment suggested alternatives involving other characters: "I think Hope (Annette O'Toole) and Doc (Tim Matheson) will help out there, even with their other drama." As Mel and Jack's story continues into at least another season, viewers ponder over the potential for family expansion in the coming series. Virgin River is available to stream on Netflix.
