Now, with the show’s 13th season set to premiere any day now in the New Year, fans are anxious to know what’s ahead. Here, everything we know about When Calls the Heart Season 13.
‘When Calls the Heart’ Season 12 recap
After a dozen seasons, quite a lot has changed since fans first got to know Elizabeth Thatcher, and Season 12 was chock full of change for the residents of this community. However, one of the biggest plot points of the last season was Elizabeth’s decision to leave Hope Valley for Cape Fullerton so they’d have better access to treatment for Little Jack’s diabetes. Joining her were Nathan and Allie, and fans are curious as to what this next chapter holds. Season 12 was full of change for several other characters as well—From school graduations to new romances, there was no shortage of gripping stories to keep us hooked episode after episode, and in Season 13, fans are expecting even more.
