One person, however, was convinced they might know who it could be. They wrote on Twitter, now known as X: "Can Doc just be Mel's Dad?" Another said: "I think Jack and Mel are going to adopt Chloe. Also…is Doc Mel’s biological father?! #VirginRiver."
A third added: "Guessing Doc is Mel's father…" as a fourth agreed: "Who else is prophesizing that Doc is Mel’s father in #VirginRiver?" A fifth even joked: "'Is Doc Mel's father' is the new 'Who shot JR'... #VirginRiver."
Meanwhile, the beloved show has prompted other responses from fans about the ups and downs the characters faced in season five. Everyone was, unsurprisingly, heartbroken to learn Mel and Jack (Martin Henderson) lost their baby, and some were divided on what they thought about Jack's reaction.
One person wrote on Reddit: "I don't like how Jack immediately wanted to start trying again after Mel just went through what she went through and, in my opinion, guilt-tripped her into possibly wanting to try again even after she said she was sure her body was telling her not too."
However, one defended the character, commenting: "I think Jack was the most supportive, loving and kind partner for Mel during their loss. Communication is so important and I think they handled it beautifully. I just love how they suffered through this together. It was a testament to their love story. I am still hurt and disappointed but am hopeful for them."
Virgin River season five part two lands on Netflix on November 30.
