Hallmark stars Kevin McGarry and Erin Krakow gave fans of “When Calls the Heart” a potentially unsettling hint about what is coming up for their characters this season.
McGarry and Krakow gave the media outlet Swooon a hint of what was on the horizon for Nathan and Elizabeth. Swooon shared a snippet of the interview on their Instagram page, which left fans wanting more.
From the sounds of things, WTCH fans had better brace themselves. When the pair was asked what “challenges” were ahead for Nathan and Elizabeth, McGarry suggested something devastating was on the way.
What’s Ahead Will Affect the Entire Community
McGarry teased, “There’s a big [challenge] coming.” Krakow nodded and agreed, “That’s a big one.”
He added that what happens is “Very poignant to the time,” which McGarry noted was 1921.
Whatever it is that happens involving Nathan and Elizabeth, “Not only does it shatter their world, it shatters the entire community. So it’s gonna be a…”
Krawkow interjected, “It’s intense.”
Luckily, there are more positive plot developments on the way for Nathan and Elizabeth, too.
She shared, “We also have a really fun adventure where the undercover thing comes back in.”
After Krakow teased that, McGarry was playfully dramatic about agreeing there’s “that too.”
WCTH fans can look forward to something coming this season for Elizabeth and Nathan that is a first for them, perhaps for the show as a whole. It seems to involve “Some fun musicality and dance,” although the pair could not share anything more specific.
WCTH Fans Have Theories About McGarry’s Teaser
While the dire development seems to impact Elizabeth and Nathan in a significant way, those WCTH fans rooting for romantic developments between the two have reason for hope.
“There’s a definite decision that is made that alters the course of their future,” McGarry hinted. It seems the pair’s relationship will take a big step forward before the season ends.
Show fans shared their excitement over the plot teases on Instagram.
One fan wrote, “These two are Hallmark gold! I’m looking forward to their amazing acting in the upcoming episodes!”
Another fan speculated, “I think LJ will survive the illness. But this situation will have a big impact on Elizabeth and Nathan. They will make an important decision for their future life together, I hope in a positive way.”
That fan continued, “What I don’t like is the statement that something shatters their life and the whole community. But we’ll see.”
“I’m wondering if little Jack drinks some of the stream water that is contaminated and gets ill (typhoid),” suggested another fan.
“I think little Jack gets Scarlet Fever and passes it to either Henry or Lee,” pondered someone else.
One post on the social media site X, formerly Twitter, read, “We know LJ gets sick but it seems [Nathan and Elizabeth] make a big decision…Could they decide with LJ sick they no longer want to wait to be a[n] official family. Either Engaged or Married?”
