When Calls The Heart’s Erin Krakow Shared A Sweet Tribute After Lori Loughlin’s Season 14 Return Was Announced

Filming for Season 13 of When Calls the Heart just finished in October, but Hallmark announced some exciting news before the new season premieres in January 2026: the show has been renewed for Season 14! Plus, Lori Loughlin will be returning to her role as Abigail Stanton, much to the delight of fans. Erin Krakow quickly shared her excitement and appreciation for her returning co-star.

Lori Loughlin was a main cast member on When Calls the Heart for its first six seasons, but she was removed from the show after becoming involved in the 2019 college admissions scandal. The storyline explained her character, Abigail, had to care for a sick mother. Later, Loughlin joined the spinoff series When Hope Calls as Abigail. Fans weren’t sure if she’d ever return to When Calls the Heart, so the announcement that she’ll appear in multiple episodes of the upcoming fourteenth season was a pleasant surprise. Actress Andrea Krakow shared her excitement on Instagram.

Erin Krakow recently posted a collection of photos with Lori Loughlin, including both on-set shots and behind-the-scenes moments. While it’s unknown how Loughlin’s character will return to Hope Valley, it seems fitting that many scenes will feature interactions with Krakow’s Elizabeth. For now, I’m happy to see Krakow and Loughlin working together again on the show.

Krakow shared a heartwarming message, clarifying that her happiness and tears were due to excitement, not pregnancy hormones. She’s expecting her first child with her husband and co-star, Ben Rosenbaum, and has had a lot to celebrate recently.

Fans have been eagerly awaiting Abigail’s return to Hope Valley, and a recent moment in the Season 10 finale hinted it might happen. Henry, played by Martin Cummins, was shown looking at and going to Abigail’s Café, clearly still having feelings for her. While actress Lori Loughlin wasn’t scheduled for Season 11, she expressed a desire to return to the show, giving fans – and the show’s creators – hope.

Fans will be thrilled to see Candace Cameron Bure back on When Calls the Heart, and it’s wonderful to see her acting again after a break. She’s been gradually returning to the screen, most recently in the short-lived series On Call. Although she’s only scheduled for six episodes of When Calls the Heart – which won’t air until Season 14 in 2027 – just knowing she’s coming back is exciting news for fans.

Fans are eagerly awaiting Season 14 of When Calls the Heart, but the good news is Season 13 starts on Sunday, January 4th at 8 p.m. Eastern on Hallmark. Expect plenty of drama, including the ongoing story of Elizabeth and Nathan, and a significant event that will shake up life in Hope Valley. It’s sure to be an exciting season!
