With the heartwarming series now back at the forefront of subscribers’ minds, many are interested to learn more about the cast, including some have another series in common.
Which Virgin River stars were also in Grey’s Anatomy?

He was behind Dr Nathan Riggs, a charming love interest for Dr Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) until he was reunited with his old love Megan Hunt (Abigail Spencer).

The real reason behind his departure was that Henderson’s contract with Grey’s Anatomy had run out and it wasn’t renewed.
But perhaps without his exit from the medical drama, he wouldn’t have gone on to do Virgin River which came out two years later.
Zibby Allen
Virgin River fans best know actress Zibby Allen as Jack’s sister Brie Sheridan but she did appear in a handful of episodes of Grey’s Anatomy as well.
She was behind Nurse Zibby in five episodes of season two, brought in as a temporary replacement during the nurses’ strike.

Annette O’Toole
In Virgin River, actress Annette O’Toole is behind the mayor and town gossip Hope McCrea but she did also feature in season nine, episode 18 of Grey’s Anatomy, Idle Hands.
She played Madeleine Skurski who was admitted into hospital after it was thought she had stomach flu.
It didn’t take too long though before Meredith realised she actually had terminal cancer.
Jenny Cooper
While she is behind Joey Barnes in Virgin River, actress Jenny Cooper is the horrible mother of patient Jessica Tanner in season 12, Bethany Tanner.
She kept getting in the way of doctors doing their work and refused to accept her daughter’s sexual orientation which led to the staff calling Child Protection Services as a result.
Virgin River is available to watch on Netflix and Grey’s Anatomy can be watched on ABC.
