Virgin River viewers are eagerly speculating about the upcoming dramatic season of the small-town drama, with a theory that sparked strong reactions.
Season six of the popular Netflix The series ended with Mel Monroe (played by Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson) exchanging vows in a picturesque ceremony, amid a backdrop of explosive revelations.
Meanwhile, Dan Brady (Benjamin Hollingsworth) and Brie Sheridan’s (Zibby Allen) complicated storylines continued to captivate audiences, as Brady discovered that his new flame Lark (Elise Gatien) was running a scam. This led to a secret meeting with Brie, and when Lark overheard Brady professing his love for Brie at the wedding, she fled with his savings, despite earlier claims of genuine feelings.
Also, Brie’s new partner Mike (Marco Grazzini) surprised everyone with a romantic proposal, despite seemingly being aware of Brie’s recent infidelity with her ex.
As millions of fans eagerly await Brie’s answers and the truth about Mike’s knowledge, Reddit users have suggested a surprisingly simple explanation for Mike’s suggestion.
“I have a clue about Mike’s proposal and why he said he knew about Brie and Brady…,” their post reports. Mirror USA.
The avid Virgin River viewer speculated: “I know no one will agree and I’m probably wrong, but VR is known for hyping something up for a cliffhanger only to let us down when the next season comes out.
“I think there’s going to be a twist where he says ‘I know, I know you slept with Brady before we got together. I don’t hold it against you, he and I are on better terms now”. I know you have a stupid bologna like that.”
The question arises – could Mike actually be referring to Brie and Brady’s past fling?
Some fans are convinced that this theory holds water, although they are far from happy about such a turn of events.
Reacting to the speculation, one commenter added his two cents: “Oh my god. I could totally see this, it’s not even real yet and I’m already annoyed by it lol. Good theory.”
I echoed similar sentiments and another chimed in: “I thought/think so too!! But then I go back to how he knew her parents were sleeping together before he actually caught them so I’m like ehhh we’ll see!”
A third person expressed their certainty: “No waaaaaayyy. I’m sure they’ll do this now.
“Whatever, as long as they break up and she gets with Brady, but I’m also sure they’ll drag this engagement out for a long time, just to leave Mike at the altar or sth.”
But there are those Virgin River enthusiasts who aren’t sold on the theory, with one user countering: “They’ve seen him in a few episodes though, especially when he called out her parents before they got caught.
“I think it’s going to be a ‘I know but give me a chance, I won’t let you down like Brady blah blah blah’ and then she chooses to be alone and ‘find herself.’
Speculations abound as to whether Mike is bravely navigating the waves of his girlfriend’s romantic history or trying to anchor Brie amid revelations about her recent infidelity.
Unfortunately, eager fans will have to bite their nails in anticipation until season seven finally reveals the longed-for truths.
Virgin River is available to stream on Netflix.
