While nothing official has been confirmed, Alison Sweeney responded to Durupt’s post with a laughing and crying emoji. This definitely made fans believe that she is returning as Hannah’s sister, Andrea, in the new Hannah Swensen movie that is currently filming.

Meanwhile, Lisa hasn’t starred in one of the movies since Hallmark changed their name from “Murder She Baked.” One fan directly asked Durupt, commenting, “I have a question for you, Lisa, will you be joining the Hannah Swensen movies again? I ask because you are missed! There is such a great dynamic between you and Allison as sisters in those movies. Just thought I’d ask.”

In the meantime, Durupt has kept busy and according to IMDb, she stars in How To Murder Your Husband with Cybill Shepherd. She also starred in 13 episodes of Heartland in 2021.

Lisa was also in the Hallmark movie, Time for Them to Come Home for Christmas in 2021 where she starred with Brendan Penny and Jessy Schram. This means she has only been absent from Hallmark for around two years.

    Yes she is missed. Both Lisa and Toby are missed. I think it would be fun to have the whole Swensen family together including Michelle.
