What will happen in When Calls the Heart Season 12?

Since the Season 11 finale won’t air until June 23, it’s hard to know what will happen in Season 12. However, the cast has some ideas about the road ahead.

Wagner recently spoke to TV Insider for an episode of our When Calls the Heart aftershow, Heart Beats, about his hopes for Season 12. He revealed that he wants Bill to “have some romance again” next season. “I think there has to be some sort of threat to Hope Valley again. I think that always pays off because it brings the community together,” he added.

Leacock teased that Hearties might get to see more of Joseph’s family in Season 12 after the arrival of his brother, Jacob, in Season 11. “There might be some more family members kicking around,” he told TV Insider.

Could we see Lori Loughlin‘s Abigail Stanton in the future? When Calls the Heart co-creator Brian Bird isn’t ruling it out. “Well, this is a tricky question and what I can say is that there are good conversations happening,” he said on the Heart to Hearties podcast in 2023. “We can’t guarantee anything, but there are good conversations happening around this topic.”

However, Hallmark told People after Bird’s statement, “Hallmark Media is not in talks with Lori Loughlin about reprising her role as Abigail on When Calls the Heart.”
