Actor from ‘Virgin River’ Shares Throwback Snap, Adding a Touch of Drama with a Completely Different Look

With fans eagerly anticipating the release of Netflix’s Virgin River season four, the star of the show is keeping fans entertained. As well as sharing funny behind the scene videos from the set on Instagram, this time Alexandra Breckenridge who played Mel Monrow shared a throwback snap from her teenage years.

Breckenridge burst into the spotlight in 2019 when she landed the role of Mel Monroe in the romantic series, Virgin River.

Viewers have been on quite the journey with the character throughout the series and she has easily become a fan-favourite.

While the Netflix streamers continue to wait out delays, the actress remains interactive with her fans and posted a throwback snap for her teenage years.

Breckenridge looked completely different as she sported a tie-dye t-shirt with patterned jeans in a go-cart.

Although the actress’ teenage self looked unimpressed, she captioned the photo: “Sundays. Am I right?”

While Breckenridge didn’t reveal how old she was in the photo, clues from the fashion and the Wildcat go-kart hint the snap was likely to have been taken during the ’90s.

As the 39-year-old actress played a beloved character in Virgin River, throughout her career Breckenridge has made an appearance in a number of shows with a household name.

She first appeared on screens in 2002 and has since starred in the likes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, CSI, Dawson’s Creek and American Horror Story.

Breckenridge also ventured into films and movies, where she landed roles in She’s the Man, Jack Rabbit and Rings.

However, more recently, it’s her role as Mel Monroe which has propelled her into becoming a household name, alongside her love interest Jack Sheridan (Martin Henderson).

While the couple will be back on screen in the summer, Breckenridge did share a disappointing update about season five of Virgin River.

She revealed fans may have to wait a while longer for an update as production was halted for reasons unknown.
