Virgin River could cross paths with another small-town drama as star drops bombshell
Virgin River might potentially merge with another beloved small-town romance series, according to claims from this prominent star.
Drawing inspiration from Robyn Carr's cherished bestselling novels, the Netflix sensation chronicles Mel Monroe (portrayed by Alexandra Breckenridge), a nurse practitioner who relocates to a remote community after experiencing personal tragedy.
Upon arrival, she encounters bar proprietor and ex-Marine Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson), with instant chemistry developing between them.
The captivating romance has recently concluded filming for its seventh series, anticipated to arrive on Netflix towards the end of this year or potentially in early 2026.
Meanwhile, American audiences have been engrossed in the newest series of Sullivan's Crossing, which follows comparable themes and draws from another Carr book collection, reports the Mirror US.
Given this link, viewers have speculated whether these programmes might intersect, and it seems we now have our response.
Starring Morgan Kohan and Chad Michael Murray, this heartwarming romance unfolds in Nova Scotia, centring on Kohan's character Maggie, a neurosurgeon who chooses to reconnect with her father Harry, known as Sully (Scott Patterson), whilst developing feelings for former solicitor California 'Cal' Jones (Murray).
In conversation with TechRadar, Kohan revealed she'd enthusiastically welcome the opportunity to interact with Mel, Jack and the entire Virgin River ensemble should circumstances permit.
"That would be so fun, why not!" she declared when presented with the concept. Despite the considerable geographical distance between the two towns, there's no reason why Virgin River and Timberlake can't exist in the same universe.
Interestingly, Sullivan's Crossing, which airs on CTV in Canada and The CW in the US, has also found significant success on Netflix, much like Virgin River, becoming its streaming home in the States.
The two shows even share a producer, Roma Roth, who is an executive producer for Virgin River and the creator and showrunner of Sullivan's Crossing.

Product Description
With the Canadian drama gaining momentum and Mel and Jack's love story captivating millions, could a crossover episode be on the horizon?
Regardless, Kohan has teased plenty of unexpected twists in the newly renewed fourth season of Sullivan's Crossing, especially with the shocking revelation that Maggie is still wedded to her ex-lover, Liam (Marcus Rosner).
"I hope they can [stay together]," she commented about her relationship with Cal.
"They've built such a beautiful foundation, and clearly this is a bit of a bombshell.
"I think it will take some trust to build them back up, and maybe a lot of explaining... but they are so good together."
As the fanbase for both shows continues to expand, could Netflix surprise viewers by linking the Robyn Carr universe on screen?
Virgin River is available to stream on Netflix. Sullivan's Crossing airs on CTW and is on Netflix in the US.

Love Island fans slam producers for giving villa girl ‘winners edit' as they predict finale outcome
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island fans are brutally slamming producers for giving a villa girl the 'winners edit'. Many fans are already predicting the outcome of the Love Island finale, which is slated to take place in a couple of weeks. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Fans think one of the girls is getting a 'winners edit' Credit: Eroteme 3 Toni entered the villa as a bombshell earlier in the series Credit: Eroteme Toni Laites, 20, has had a rough time since entering the Love Island villa as a bombshell earlier on in the season. Her main connection was with Harrison, but the pair were on-and-off and had a tumultuous time before Casa Amor. During Casa Amor Toni then formed a connection with hunky boy Cach while Harrison brought back Lauren. Toni and Harrison then made their way back for each other before splitting for a final time. Harrison later left the villa after Lauren was dumped from the show, with the pair having been seen out and about with each other packing on the PDA. But fans think that Toni might be getting the "winners edit" by show bosses. After Tuesday night's episode, one fan on Reddit asked: "Is Toni getting a winners edit?" They added: "Is it just me that thinks she has been getting blessed despite her actions and behaviour being the complete opposite? "I'm actually gobsmacked they've left out the clip of her and Harrison on the terrace. "This is very confusing because the clip of her and Harrison on the terrace will show the truth and how she strung him along for 4 days but it's Shakira they want to focus on." Awkward moment Toni is PIED by Cach after trying to kiss him - as new Love Island triangle forms Someone agreed with the original poster, writing: "Yes…she was protected from being dumped at the megan dumping, her movie clip was a cringe best moments comp. "She has the most egregiously omitted grafties clip… i am onto these producers…" A second then agreed: "I'm starting to realise more things like how they brought an American citizen when she was on the verge of being dumped." While a third penned: "Toni was probably cast for love island us but the producers from both ends agreed she would better suit the uk version based on the storylines both production teams had in mind for their shows." But a fourth noted: "I think it's an attempt to draw in more American viewers for future seasons." Last night, Irish stunner Megan and Spanish lad Blu appeared in a teaser for tonight's episode, with them poised to return imminently. Iain Stirling revealed the incredible comeback and The Sun understands the pair entered the villa last night. The public previously turned on Megan after she dumped Tommy for Conor in her final few days. Megan was voted least favourite girl after dumping Tommy for Conor, before being axed. Meanwhile, Blu was dumped after being left single - and had to fight for his place opposite bombshell Shea.

Rylan Clark says 'I actually got pretty worried' as he shares intimate confession
Rylan Clark has opened up about his sex life and relationships, admitting he has a 'worry' when it comes to being intimate with someone after the breakdown of his marriage Rylan Clark has opened up about a personal "worry" following the end of his marriage, revealing how it's affected his approach to new relationships. The BBC Radio 2 presenter parted ways with his ex-husband, Dan Neal, in 2021. This revelation comes after Rylan admitted to being unfaithful earlier in their relationship. Despite acknowledging that the split was "the right thing to happen," he admits to experiencing a "full-on breakdown" post-separation. Now, the one-time X Factor contestant is dipping his toes back into the dating pool—yet he's noticed a significant shift in his feelings toward intimacy with other men. On his podcast How to Be in Love, Rylan, 36, shared: "I have found that, since the breakdown of my marriage, if I've gone on any dates or started seeing people, when I've had sex with them, I lose interest pretty quickly." He continued, expressing his concerns: "I actually got pretty worried about a year or two ago because I thought, hang on a minute, I don't remember this from BM—I call it, before marriage. I don't remember having sex with someone, or orgasming with someone, climaxing, and then after that thinking, 'Oh, I'm just not bothered now'." Neuroscientist Dr Tara Swart weighed in on Rylan's situation, suggesting that the emotional trauma from his marriage could be influencing his current feelings post-intimacy. She responded: "So now that you've put it like that—with the BM—that probably, because you were so hurt, something has changed for you." The former Celebrity Big Brother champ shared his fears about commitment, saying: "I did worry for a long time that, almost like I was frightened to commit or open myself fully to someone, because going through a break-up is quite hard." Rylan has been open about feeling like a "failure" following his divorce. In a heart-to-heart with ex-Love Island star Tasha Ghouri, he confessed: "When I went through my divorce, I had a full-on breakdown because it wasn't just us." He continued, revealing the weight of public perception: "It felt like it wasn't just us, even though it was just me and my ex. I felt that everyone's going to think this of me. Everyone's going to think, 'Oh look, his life isn't perfect. Oh look, he's failed like that.' I just felt like a failure." In a candid chat with Stephen Fry, Rylan expressed how he grappled with the public scrutiny during his split, admitting: "There was part of me that just felt like a complete and utter failure. I felt like I'd failed personally, but I felt like I'd failed publicly on behalf of—the gays! You know, I'm not, I'm not 'head gay', it's not that." Looking ahead to future romance, Rylan opened up in his autobiography, TEN: The Decade That Changed My Future, where he reflects: "I got in a relationship quite young and just went with it. Now I know I'm my own person. I'm not going to settle for something that's not right. In a way, it's been a bit of a gift. "I'm happy to have sex with someone and that's that, that's not a problem. But do I want more? Of course I want more. Am I going to enjoy myself on the way? Abso-f***ing-lutely."

Watch mortifying moment Lady Gaga falls to the ground just inches away from fans in awkward live concert blunder
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LADY Gaga fell to the ground just inches away from fans during an awkward slip-up at her Las Vegas concert over the weekend. Pop superstar Gaga, 39, was performing Vanish Into You during Saturday night's Mayhem Ball show at the T-Mobile Arena when the mishap unfolded. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Lady Gaga fell to the ground just inches away from fans during an awkward slip-up at her Las Vegas concert Credit: Tiktok/@jimmypsll 5 She was performing Vanish Into You when the mishap unfolded Credit: Tiktok/@jimmypsll It began when one of her cameramen lost his balance after departing the stage and had to be steadied by a nearby security guard. Gaga calmly adjusted the crew member's equipment and continued walking - only to trip herself moments later. She managed to catch her footing and carried on singing, but stumbled again just before the word 'fly' and fell sideways near the edge of the stage. The moment, caught on fan cameras, showed the singer landing close to the front row, where audience members were watching from just feet away. One shared the clip to TikTok, writing: "MY POOR MOTHER MONSTER FALLING DURING VANISH INTO YOU [crying emoji] AND THE CAMERAMAN JUST BEFORE." Despite the tumble, Gaga was helped up and immediately resumed the song without missing a beat. The incident took place during the first week of Gaga's global tour, which launched on 16 July and will continue through to January with a final run of shows in Japan. It follows a series of stage mishaps involving other major stars. Beyoncé was recently left suspended mid-air during a Texas show when a red car she was performing in got stuck. During her performance of 16 Carriages, the superstar hopped into a red car which was then lifted high into the air using cables. Katy Perry desperately clings on as prop malfunctions mid-air during gig leaving audience terrified She pulled on a silver cowboy hat and waved an American flag for her in-air adventures, yet was forced to halt the song as the vehicle leaned dangerously to one side. The crowd paused when she stopped singing and signaled for help, before erupting into cheers as the vehicle was lowered to solid ground. Like a pro, Beyonce continued the song then told her adoring fans: "I wanna thank y'all, for loving me. "If ever I fall, I know y'all will catch me." Katy Perry, meanwhile, nearly fell from a giant sphere on her Lifetimes tour in Australia and later appeared to slip on a butterfly-shaped prop during Roar. She had climbed into the huge metal structure when it began tilting dramatically at a strange angle. An army of quick-thinking backstage crew members raced onto the set in Australia to steady the massive prop so Katy - who was clinging on to the sides - could climb down safely. With the backing music stopped, the crowd could be heard applauding the star and shouting "go, Katy!" as she made her way out and onto the floor. 5 The incident took place during the first week of Gaga's Mayhem Ball tour Credit: Getty 5 Beyoncé was recently left suspended mid-air during a Texas show Credit: X/boyoncegarden
