The news was shared on Instagram

Virgin River enthusiasts are over the moon as they’ve received thrilling updates about the beloved Netflix series’ continuation, even before the latest instalment hits screens.

Deadline has revealed that the heartwarming drama has been greenlit for a seventh season, a full two months prior to the release of the sixth season to its eager audience.

The upcoming romantic adventures featuring Mel Monroe (played by Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson) are set to grace our screens this coming December.

An additional 10 episodes have now been commissioned, setting Virgin River on course to become the longest-running English-language drama series in Netflix’s history.

The show’s stars, including Sarah Dugdale, Tim Matheson, Kandyse McClure, Zibby Allen, and Colin Lawrence, took to Instagram to share the exciting update, sparking a frenzy among devoted fans

“Good news, Virgin River is confirmed to come back for Season 7!” announced the official show account in an Instagram post.

“More love, drama, and small-town charm coming your way. You’re very welcome.”

Adapted from Robyn Carr’s bestselling novels, the series has evidently struck a chord with Netflix viewers, prompting scores of them to express their joy in the comments section.

A particularly ecstatic fan commented: “Congratulations @virginriverseries on your season 7 renewal!!!

“We are so so happy and excited for the cast, crew, writers, and everyone who works so hard to bring us this show! You totally deserve all the success!! Also can’t wait to see what is in store for season 6!!”

One enthusiast proclaimed: “Sooo pumped! Whooooo! Can’t wait for December 19th!

“As for season 7 can’t wait for that either, hopefully we won’t have to wait long to see that one! Virgin river is the best show keep the new seasons rolling!!”

Another chimed in with a jubilant: “HOORAY!!!!!! Thank you for this exciting announcement!!!!! I cannot wait for A LOT more VIRGIN RIVER!!!!!!”

With its seventh outing, Virgin River has outpaced formidable competitors such as The Crown and House of Cards, thereby becoming Netflix’s longest-running English-language drama series.

Yet, it needs a couple more seasons under its belt to topple the record set by the Spanish hit Elite, which culminated gracefully after its eighth season this year.
