Virgin River fans have been left fearing for one of the Netflix drama’s key romances after a shocking revelation was brought to light in the holiday specials
Devotees of the popular Netflix series Virgin River are speculating about the future of a significant romance in the upcoming season, with many expressing doubt.
Viewers of Virgin River are forecasting an end to the relationship between Dan Brady (played by Ben Hollingsworth) and Lark (Elise Gatien) by the conclusion of the sixth season.
The hit Netflix drama has introduced numerous new love stories in its recent seasons, including Preacher’s (Colin Lawrence) fiery romance with firefighter Kaia (Kandyse McClure), and budding young love between Lizzie (Sarah Dugdale) and Denny (Kai Bradbury).
However, the fifth season also brought heartache as Brie Sheridan (Zibby Allen) chose to end things with Brady after realising she couldn’t trust his ties with Calvin’s (David Cubitt) illicit drug business were entirely cut off.
Despite Brady’s efforts to lead a clean life, it seems his new love interest has different plans.
In the latest holiday episodes of Virgin River, Lark received a call from Jimmy (Ian Tracey), Calvin’s right-hand man who previously threatened Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson) and Mel Monroe (Alexandra Breckenridge) at gunpoint.
Will Lark lure Brady back into the criminal world?
Or will he realise he needs to end his new romance before it’s too late?
Fans have taken to online discussion boards to debate whether their relationship is on a collision course when the drama resumes shortly.
“Who is team Brady & Lark????” one viewer queried on Reddit, sparking a unanimous reaction from the majority of fans who chimed in.
“No way. She’s up to something,” another fan commented, eliciting a “Yes I just saw that episode [sad face]” from the original questioner.
Another fan chose to remain more elusive, writing: “I was until something about her relationship with someone else was revealed. I’m not sure if you’re all caught up. So I don’t wanna say too much.”
A different fan added their perspective: “Great question, but heck no! She’s on Jimmy’s side just trying to sabotage him.”
The revelation of the plot twist left many fans disheartened, yet some might still be cheering for Lark and Brady when the series makes its comeback.
Questions linger about whether Lark might realise her mistakes and opt for an honest life to preserve her romance with Brady.
One enthusiast confessed: “I was all for their relationship, til her connection with Jimmy was revealed.
“Lark seemed like a good fit for Brady. Too bad she’s a scammer.”
While another responded: “I mean… she’s kind of out for him… So I guess, yes. Yes, I am.”
Brady has consistently been a polarising figure throughout the five seasons of Virgin River, ensuring that whatever unfolds in season six will undoubtedly spark intense debate.
