Does Brie end up with Brady or Mike in Virgin River season 7?
If you’re one of the many Brie and Brady shippers, then you will be excited to learn that Brie ultimately chooses to get back together with Brady in Virgin River season 7! However, the choice doesn’t happen until the end of the season, and she spends a significant amount of time working with Mike and getting closure on the dissolution of their relationship.
Obviously, Brie doesn’t accept Mike’s proposal. When he continues to fight for her, she blurts out that she doesn’t think that she can love him with her whole heart, he basically gets the answer he had been searching for regarding the future of their relationship. It’s not the kind of breakup that she had been expecting, and it hurts even though she was also in love with Brady.
As Charmaine’s lawyer, Brie works alongside Mike on the investigation into her whereabouts, and that’s rather healing for them. Well, it’s healing until their closeness blurs the lines and Mike kisses her. He realizes that he shouldn’t have done that, and they remain friendly in spite of the awkwardness. Brie continues to be drawn to Brady, but it’s still the matter of trust.
She’s willing to take the risk and be with him again, even though she still has reservations about whether he can fully commit to an adult relationship. Before getting back together, Brady contemplates giving up on his hopes of being with Brie and pursuing a future working for Cal Fire. Ultimately, he puts roots down in Virgin River and gets back together with Brie.
The newly minted couple are excited to be back together and have a future, but the season 7 cliffhanger throws a wrench in that plan. On his way to Brie’s house on his motorcycle, Brady loses control as he approaches a parked garbage truck and crashes in the street. We’re left with his fate hanging in the balance, though it’s unlikely that he’s dead and just seriously injured.
