'Longmire' season 5 spoilers, plot news: Walt leaves Donna for Vic?

Although "Longmire" season 4 ended with Sheriff Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) and Dr. Donna Sue Monaghan (Ally Walker) in each other's arms, rumors suggest it won't be this way in "Longmire" season 5.

According to reports, Vic Moretti (Katee Sackhoff) and Walt will eventually realize that there's more to it than their work relationship as sheriff and deputy.

Fans believe that the pair's chemistry on the show is unmistakeable and that their relationship can easily evolve into a romantic one in "Longmire" season 5.

In the novels by author Craig Johnson that inspired the "Longmire" series, it is actually Vic and Walt that end up together. If the show decides to follow the source material, "Longmire" season 5 might set up this storyline.

However, some fans may not agree to Vic and Walt engaging in a romantic relationship. According to various sites, fans believe that the age gap is just too wide between the two.

For now, there are no details regarding this development. Walt will have to deal with a new foe in "Longmire" season 5 set up in the previous season.

Amid an intimate moment between Walt and Donna, an intruder broke into the house the two were in. The face of the trespasser wasn't showed, but there are rumors it is actually Donna's son.

The intruder is expected to shed some light on Donna's true self, which is something Walt may not like. If it all goes downhill from there, "Longmire" season 5 might actually give the Vic-Walt romance a shot.

"Longmire" season 5 is currently in production. Sackhoff plans to do a set tour today, June 17 via Periscope. She teased that her co-star Taylor might pop up during the tour.

"Longmire" season 5 has no release date yet, but with the production set to wrap up soon, the rumored September premiere is highly likely to push through.
