Hallmark’s “When Calls the Heart” star Erin Krakow recently shared a sweet and funny birthday message for one of her co-stars. Her WCTH colleague, Marin Cummins, celebrated his birthday, and Krakow couldn’t help but gush over him on that special day.
Erin Krakow Insists Martin Cummins Is ‘So Kind’
On November 28, Krakow posted a photo of Cummins on her Instagram page, and it appeared it may have been taken while filming season 13. In her caption, she wrote, “From Season 1 all the way to 13, He’s so kind [in real life] – but so gruff when onscreen.”
She continued, “Straight from my heart(en), I adore Martin.”
However, Krakow joked, “But he should be jailed for stealing every scene!”
After her sweet tease, Krakow wished her friend and colleague a happy birthday and noted that she was “Sending you so much big love!”
“When Calls the Heart Fans” loved Krakow’s tribute to Cummins.
One fan wrote, “What a beautiful tribute! Henry’s story arc is so powerful and such a powerful example of mercy & redemption! I can’t wait to see his journey continue in season 13. Happy Birthday, Martin!”
Another shared, “Aging like a fine (emphasis on fine) wine. He’s my hall(mark) pass lol HAPPY BIRTHDAY.”
Someone else added, “Happy birthday, Henry! You have been such a great part of Hope Valley I luv u! No worries, my hubby knows about it. He knows I luv Jack too!”
An additional comment read, “Stealing scenes and hearts since day one!”
Some fans noted that his character, Henry Gowen, is their favorite on “When Calls the Heart.”
“Ain’t no character development like Henry Gowan’s,” praised another fan.
WCTH Fans Are Eager to See Henry Gowan Reunite With Abigail Stanton
While “When Calls the Heart” fans will be eager to see what comes for Henry in season 13, some are already buzzing about his potential storyline in season 14. That’s because, as People reported on December 2, Lori Loughlin will be returning to the show as Abigail Stanton.
Loughlin will appear in six season 14 episodes, out of a total of 12. Unfortunately, season 14 of “When Calls the Heart” doesn’t premiere until early 2027.
As soon as Loughlin’s return was announced, “When Calls the Heart” fans took to Instagram to note their hope that Abigail and Henry will be together.
One fan wrote, “I’m so rooting for her and Henry! I love how much he has changed and grown through the series.”
Another gushed, “OMGGGGGGG FINALLY FINALLY!!!!!!!! HENRY AND ABIGAIL END GAME.”
Someone else replied to that comment, sharing, “My thoughts too! I was wondering if she’d come back when he began talking about her again last season more!”
