The beloved Hallmark Channel series 'When Calls the Heart' has officially been renewed for a thirteenth season following the finale of Season 12 in March. With excitement from the fan community, referred to as 'Hearties', the show's narrative will continue under new showrunner Joy Gregory, who previously served as a writer/executive producer. While no specific return date is provided, it is anticipated that new episodes will air in 2026, maintaining the series' tradition of storytelling rich in hope, resilience, and romance.
"Hearties are far more than a fan base - they are a connected community, as loyal and supportive as the characters of Hope Valley," Hallmark Media's Senior Vice President of Programming Samantha DiPippo said in a statement. "It is an honor to tell stories of hope, resilience, humor, and romance that continue to resonate with millions of viewers for twelve seasons and beyond."
Joy Gregory will replace Lindsay Sturman as the showrunner for Season 13. Gregory worked as a writer/executive producer for Season 12, while Sturman served as the showrunner for Seasons 10-12.
