When Calls The Heart: Erin Krakow Reacts To Lori Loughlin’s Return

When Calls the Heart star, (WCTH)  Erin Krakow stuck by her friend Lori Loughlin after her arrest for her involvement in the College Admissions Scandal. Many fans of Hallmark followed the example of Erin, who plays the role of Elizabeth Thornton in the show. Additonally, they missed the character that Lori played, Abigail Stanton. Well, Lori reprises her role as Abigail, but not in WCTH. Instead, she appears in the two-part premiere called When Hope Calls: A Country Christmas. It airs on CAG Family TV rather than directly on Hallmark.
