When Calls The Heart (WCTH) fans known as “Hearties” poured out their thoughts when they heard that Jack Wagner, (Bill Avery) and Kristina’s son, Harrison passed away.

This week, he gave his many fans an update about his filming status.

When Calls The Heart: Spoilers Reveal A Jack Wagner Hiatus

In late May, spoilers for the show came from the fact that Bill Avery seemed to be ailing with pneumonia. So Faith Carter (Andrea Brooks) had a look at him and referred him to Union City. Of course, he wasn’t keen on that as he had some problems on his hands. Anyway, after Molly Sullivan (Johannah Newmarch) also pushed him into it, he handed his will to Elizabeth and went. So, fans feared that he might not return to the show.  

In early June, When Calls The Heart fans heard the tragic news about his real-life son, Harrison. When he passed away, he was found dead in LA in a car park. At the time of the headlines, it wasn’t clear how he had died. Nevertheless, he did have an addiction problem. So, it was with sadness that Hallmark fans thought that his death was drug-related. Obviously, Jack went back home to deal with the grief and details. So, WCTH fans feared once again, that he might not return.

At the time, he was in an airport and a lot of background noise made it hard to hear him. However, the caption confirmed, “Excited to start S10 @wcth_tv #Hearties on @hallmarkchannel…” Additionally, he noted, “Again thank you all for the love, right back at ya❤️.”

Supportive, kind, and graceful as ever, When Calls The Heart star Erin Krakow popped up in the comments. She said, “Hurry up! Somebody has to bake the scones! 💓”
