Why Fans Think Elizabeth & Nathan Are Leaving When Calls The Heart

by

The final episode of When Calls the Heart fueled rumors that characters Elizabeth (played by Erin Krakow) and Nathan (Kevin McGarry) could be departing from the series. This is because Elizabeth chose to leave Hope Valley for Jack’s medical care, with Nathan and Allie accompanying her. Consequently, viewers are now curious about their future appearances in the show, and whether they will reappear in the next season. Here’s what you should know.

Are Elizabeth and Nathan leaving When Calls The Heart after Season 12?

In the grand finale, there was a tantalizing hint that my favorites, Elizabeth and Nathan, might just make a comeback in the next exciting chapter!

In the Season 12 finale, titled “Must Be Gold,” the story revolved around Elizabeth deciding to depart from Hope Valley to seek improved diabetes care for Little Jack (played by Hyland Goodrich) in Cape Fullerton. Later, they are accompanied by Allie (Jaeda Lily Miller) and Nathan in a taxi en route to the train station. Allie comforts Elizabeth, saying, “Family stays together, don’t they?” Feeling anxious about leaving her life behind in Hope Valley, Elizabeth inquires of Nathan how he could possibly depart. Nathan reassures her, saying, “We’ll find a solution. Together. Wherever you go, I follow.

After sharing a kiss, it seems like the characters are parting ways, causing viewers to speculate if they’ve left for good. However, the concluding narration offers a glimmer of hope for their return. In the final analysis, Elizabeth’s voiceover indicates that even though their future is shrouded in doubt, they will eventually make it back to Hope Valley. This suggests to fans that we might see them again in Season 13.

Who else could be leaving When Calls The Heart?

Apart from me (Nathan) and Elizabeth, the latest season of our gaming world hinted at the exit of Allie, Little Jack, and Angela Canfield. That’s quite a shake-up!

At the end of the final episode, Nathan, Elizabeth, and Allie relocate to a new town due to Little Jack’s medical needs, implying their departure from the current setting. Moreover, the storyline subtly indicated that Vienna Leacock’s character, Angela, might be leaving as well.

After completing her education at the secondary school in Hope Valley, she intends to further her studies at a college located elsewhere. At her graduation celebration, Allie presents her with a poem as a parting gift. During this occasion, Allie also requests Angela to provide updates about her life on a weekly basis. In response, Angela promises to write about her experiences daily.

Although it’s still unclear what happens to Angela on the show, members of the Thornton family have hinted at their upcoming appearance. In a past conversation with The Official Hearties Aftershow, McGarry revealed that the family is set to return in Season 13, as there are still many stories left to be shared.
