Erin Krakow Predicts How Elizabeth & Nathan’s Love Story Will Land With Hearties in Season 13

Hallmark fans are ready to head to Hope Valley for season 13 of “When Calls the Heart.” Ahead of the January 4 premiere, Erin Krakow revealed some teasers that set the bar quite high for the storylines on the way.

“There’s no shortage of love and romance” in season 13 of “When Calls the Heart,” Krakow promised.

Hearties Can Expect Great Developments for Nathan & Elizabeth

Krakow talked to Us Weekly about where her character, Elizabeth Thornton, is headed in season 13. The last that “When Calls the Heart” viewers saw, Elizabeth and Nathan Grant (Kevin McGarry), were leaving Hope Valley.

They weren’t saying farewell to Hope Valley forever, though. Rather, they were heading to Cape Fullerton to get medical attention for Little Jack after his diabetes diagnosis.

Krakow promised that while Elizabeth and Nathan head to Cape Fullerton full of concerns and worries for Little Jack, their time there will have its positives, too.

“They get romantic together. They get silly together. There are some beautiful, beautiful moments between them,” she hinted.

As a result of the highs and lows of the couple’s time away from Hope Valley, Krakow shared that “Nathan and Elizabeth take steps forward.”

Perhaps most importantly, Krakow teased, she wholeheartedly believes that “When Calls the Heart” fans will be “more than satisfied” with what’s ahead.

“Hearties,” as “When Calls the Heart” fans often call themselves, have been eager to see Elizabeth and Nathan’s romantic progress forward in a serious way. At last, it seems that they will soon get what they want.

Krakow also suggested that the group’s time in Cape Fullerton will be fairly short, but highly productive. It seems that the Nathan and Elizabeth that return to Hope Valley will be changed people in numerous ways.

One change “When the Heart Calls” fans will see in Nathan may be somewhat controversial. Krakow explained, “I can draw attention to the one thing that we’re all thinking, which is Nathan’s mustache. It’s back.”

McGarry’s mustache has been present in social media posts and Hallmark’s “When Calls the Heart” promotional media for a while now. “That’s something that I guess Nathan grew during his time in Cape Fullerton,” Krakow quipped.

However, Krakow suggested, the mustache may not stick around for long.

Elizabeth and Nathan’s relationship isn’t the only one that will move forward in season 13 of “When Calls the Heart.” Krakow hinted, “For our romance loving fans…it’s not just Elizabeth and Nathan…We’ve got Bill and Georgie. We’ve got Edie and Lucas’ will they, won’t they.”

She added, “We’ve got this beautiful, you know, blossoming puppy love between Allie and Oliver.”

Even the wedded pairs in Hope Valley will get some romantic attention in season 13 of “When Calls the Heart.” Krakow explained, “There’s a deepening love story in marriages, the Canfields, the Coulters, the Hickams. It is all over Hope Valley.”
