Muriel and Cameron: Will They Stay Together in Virgin River Season 6?

The Unlikely Pairing of Muriel and Cameron

Muriel and Cameron are one of the more unlikely pairings in Virgin River history, but will they stay together in Season 6? Romance is no stranger to Virgin River, with plenty of couple-ups going on to become fan-favorite storylines. However, one that took viewers by surprise is Muriel and Cameron, thanks to their distinct age gap and seemingly different wants in life.

While the pair have started their blossoming romance on the right foot, will Muriel and Cameron stay together in Season 6? Here’s what we know.

Challenges Ahead for Muriel and Cameron

Will Muriel and Cameron stay together in Virgin River Season 6? While nothing is confirmed just yet, sources suggest that Muriel and Cameron’s relationship may run into some trouble during Virgin River Season 6. A report by the EarlyBirdTimes suggests that showrunner Patrick Sean Smith has hinted that the pair’s relationship is likely 'to be tested.' Season 5 saw the introduction of the couple’s relationship, with Cameron joining the cast as the local doctor back in Season 4. Muriel originally offered to help Cameron and Doc at the clinic part-time while Mel wasn’t around, prompting the two to get better acquainted. From there, the pair grew closer, leading to harmless flirting that resulted in a surprising kiss.

However, there have been early concerns from fans surrounding whether the relationship would last, with both parties previously stating that they want completely different things out of life. Some fans have expressed doubts about the credibility of their love and the speed at which their relationship developed. Age gap, chemistry, and compatibility are some of the key points of contention among the fans.

The Future of Muriel and Cameron

For some, it’s a lack of chemistry that indicates Muriel and Cameron won’t last into Virgin River Season 6. There is definitely a significant age gap and though it is weird, that’s not what’s weird about it. They have 0 chemistry together. All of their interactions are super awkward, they don’t click at all and have little in common. Muriel had a fantastic love interest in the books (Walt a retired general who was around her age), unfortunately he’s not in the shows so it feels like those two are forced together since there’s not many singles left,

'In the books she is 56 and Cameron 35, if I’m correct… the actors are 61 and 46,' a third weighed in. 'The biggest problem for me: Muriel and Cameron are secondary characters, so we can’t expect a lot of scenes of them like Mel/Jack (the majority of fans already complained that Season 5 has few scenes of Mel/Jack, although for me they even have too many scenes… they not my favorites. I watch VR for other plots like Muriel/Cameron – my favorite at the moment). Because of this, their relationship seems to have developed too fast, but I saw chemistry since the beginning – like the scene on season 4 (they dance at Joey’s wedding).'

Time will tell, but with such big differences, the future is likely to be turbulent. While the fate of Muriel and Cameron’s relationship in Virgin River Season 6 remains uncertain, fans are eagerly anticipating the unfolding dynamics and challenges that lie ahead for this unlikely couple.
