Virgin River loses a regular player after season 6. At the end of the season six finale, it appeared that fans would be saying goodbye to Dr. Cameron Hayek, played by Mark Ghanimé (pictured).
He joined the show at the beginning of season four and tried to break up Mel and Jack before starting a romance with Muriel. At the end of season five, he reconnected with his ex-fiancée and returned to San Diego. He was only seen twice in season six.
According to Deadline, showrunner Patrick Sean Smith had this to say about his departure from Virgin River:
“Cameron will always be part of our world, and I would love to see his character come back again. He unfortunately won’t be a series regular in Season 7, but I love Mark, and I love the character, so when opportunity presents itself, I’d love to have him back.”
Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson, Tim Matheson, Annette O'Toole, Colin Lawrence, Benjamin Hollingsworth, Zibby Allen, Sarah Dugdale, Marco Grazzini, Kai Bradbury and Kandyse McClure star in the romantic drama based on the novels by Robyn Carr.
Set in the small town of Virgin River, the series follows the town's residents, focusing on midwife and nurse Melinda Monroe (Breckenridge), who moved to the town after the death of her husband.
