He’s a singer, an actor, and proudly Scottish — and you’ve probably seen him before.
Netflix’s Virgin River rarely introduces new characters, but Season 6 took a step back in time, bringing fresh faces into the fold. Among them is Everett, Mel’s (Alexandra Breckenridge) birth father, portrayed by actor Callum Kerr in flashbacks.
A New Past Unfolds
This season delves into Mel’s family history, finally giving her answers about her parents, Everett and Sarah (played by Jessica Rothe in the past). As Mel prepares for her wedding to Jack (Martin Henderson), she seeks to better understand Everett (John Allen Nelson in the present), asking about his relationship with Sarah and how they came together.
Through flashbacks, viewers watch a young Everett and Sarah fall in love, bonding over hitchhiking adventures, camping trips, and even a heartfelt campfire performance. If Everett’s rugged charm has left you wondering where you’ve seen him before, you’re not alone.
Callum Kerr: The Actor Behind Everett
Callum Kerr, who plays young Everett, isn’t just a rising actor — he’s also a country singer and social media star. With nearly 700,000 followers on TikTok and 600,000 on Instagram, Kerr has built a devoted fan base, showcasing his talents and Scottish roots.
While Virgin River is undoubtedly Kerr’s most high-profile project to date, it’s not his first acting role. He previously appeared in the Fox series Monarch and is set to feature in the upcoming third season of Amazon Prime’s The Wheel of Time. However, his turn in the Netflix drama is poised to be a breakout moment in his career.
A Potential Spinoff
Kerr’s portrayal of Everett may not be a one-time appearance. A spinoff exploring Mel’s parents has reportedly been in the works, hinting at more opportunities to see Everett and Sarah’s love story unfold in greater depth.
