Virgin River has released a new photo from the upcoming fifth season and fans are slightly worried for one of its main characters.
The show's official Instagram page shared a snap showing Martin Henderson's Jack Sheridan wearing a concerned look on his face, writing in the caption: "What's Jack thinking about? ….and go!"
Viewers of the popular Netflix show were quick to comment on the post, with some pointing out Jack's sorrowful look. One person wrote: "He looks sad. That’s not good," while another added: "The twins not being his. He looks sad."
A third viewer commented: "Just no more crying Jack pretty please!!!!" while another simply penned: "He looks sad."
Throughout the first four seasons of the show, Charmaine Roberts claimed that her ex-boyfriend Jack was the father of her unborn twins. However, in a major cliffhanger at the end of series four, the hairstylist revealed that she had lied all along.

While waiting for the new season to arrive, fans have shared their own theories about who Charmaine's baby daddy is. Back in February, the show's Instagram account posted a snap of Charmaine, asking fans to share their thoughts.

One person wrote: "It's Mike because during their marine reunion, Jack admitted that Charmaine was pregnant and Mike's response was, 'Whoa Jesus I didn't know you were still seeing her'. And since that date, he decided to stay around in Virgin River."
A second viewer added: "Mike. His reaction when Jack told him about the pregnancy had him on the top of my list ever since. I never believed Jack was the father."
