Hope Valley is calling us home. When Calls the Heart wrapped up Season 13 back in March, and Hearties immediately looked ahead to Season 14. Hallmark Channel renewed the beloved series for a 4th season in December 2025. With so many off-screen milestones happening during the hiatus, fans have been wondering whether or not the show would have a longer break than usual.
On July 8, When Calls the Heart star Pascale Hutton shared an update on the status of Season 14. From what we know about the premiere to who’s returning, we’ve rounded up all the latest news about the upcoming season.
When is When Calls the Heart Season 14 coming out?
Hallmark hasn’t set a specific premiere date for When Calls the Heart Season 14, but we do know the show will return in 2027. When the network renewed the show, it was confirmed that When Calls the Heart would go into production in 2026 and return to our screens in 2027. For the past two seasons, the show has premiered in January.
Hutton revealed she was back on the When Calls the Heart set on July 8. She posted a video of her in a costume fitting. “We’re back at it! #season14 #wcth #hearties,” she captioned the Instagram video.
Which cast members are coming back for When Calls the Heart Season 14?
You can expect all of your favorite Hope Valley characters to return in Season 14. Cast members expected to come back include Erin Krakow as Elizabeth, Kevin McGarry as Nathan, Jack Wagner as Bill, Pascale Hutton as Rosemary, Kavan Smith as Lee, Viv Leacock as Joseph, Natasha Burnett as Minnie, Ben Rosenbaum as Mike, Angela Wong as Mei, Andrea Brooks as Faith, Martin Cummins as Henry, Jaeda Lily Miller as Allie, Hyland Goodrich as Little Jack, Loretta Walsh as Florence, Johannah Newmarch as Molly, and Hrothgar Mathews as Ned.
The Season 13 finale left Lucas and Edie’s future a bit open-ended. Edie (Miranda MacDougall) told Lucas (Chris McNally) she was heading to New York to do legal aid for a couple of months, and he wanted to join her. While they could come back to Hope Valley after their New York adventure, they could end up staying for longer than intended. Only time will tell!
During the hiatus, several WCTH stars have welcomed little ones. McGarry and Kayla Wallace, who plays Fiona, welcomed their first child. A few weeks later, Krakow and Rosenbaum announced the birth of their daughter. McNally and his wife, Julie Gonzalo, have also had their second child.
Will Lori Loughlin return for When Calls the Heart Season 14?
When Calls the Heart Season 14 will feature the return of a fan favorite character: Lori Loughlin‘s Abigail Stanton. When Hallmark renewed the show, the network also announced that Loughlin would be reprising her role. She also made a surprise cameo in the Season 13 finale.
“Since the series’ debut in 2014, the character of Abigail Stanton was a fan favorite and beloved by the Hearties,” Michelle Vicary, Head of Programming, Hallmark Media, said in a statement. “At its core, the Hallmark brand is about hope, positivity, and connection, which is also the central theme of When Calls the Heart. We felt that Season 14 was the right time to continue Abigail’s story with her return to this beloved series.”
Abigail was one of the original characters when the show premiered in 2014. The character was written off in Season 6 amid Loughlin’s involvement in the Operation Varsity Blues college admissions scandal.
In December 2025, Loughlin made a special appearance at the Hallmark Christmas Experience during a When Calls the Heart cast panel. “I just want to thank everyone at Hallmark for being so loving and so welcoming… And this just feels incredible. And I think — I mean, you guys all know it — we have such a special cast and such a special bond, and it’s just so nice to be back with my family,” she said.
On March 18, Loughlin attended a When Calls the Heart and Hope Valley: 1874 celebration event in Los Angeles. She joined Krakow, Wagner, Rosenbaum, and other members of her When Calls the Heart family.
What happened at the end of When Calls the Heart Season 13?
The Season 13 finale featured the moment we’ve all been waiting for — Nathan and Elizabeth’s engagement! The Coulters also had to say goodbye to Gwendolyn (Alex MacIsaac), the young girl they took in while her father recovered from the injuries he sustained in the fire.
In the final moments of the episode, Abigail could be seen arriving back in Hope Valley. When she stepped out of her car, she looked around and said, “It’s good to be home.”
