Martin Henderson’s Health Scare Delays Plans — But Not Virgin River’s Future md14
Martin Henderson’s recent health scare briefly disrupted his schedule, but it hasn’t slowed the momentum of Virgin River. The actor revealed during an Instagram Q&A that a medical issue forced him to postpone work commitments, including a live fan event scheduled for October.
Calling the situation “scary,” Henderson expressed gratitude for the medical team that helped him through the ordeal. While details remain private, he confirmed that doctors and surgeons handled the situation successfully and that he’s currently doing well.
Co-star Alexandra Breckenridge offered reassurance during the discussion, emphasizing that the delay was unavoidable and that Henderson’s recovery was the priority. Henderson admitted he’s still coming to terms with the experience and may speak more openly about it in the future.
Despite the setback, Henderson is expected to return as Jack Sheridan when Virgin River begins filming season six in 2024. The upcoming season will reportedly include another time jump, continuing the show’s evolving narrative — with its leading man back where fans want him to be.
