Long before Elizabeth Thatcher (Erin Krakow) arrived in Coal Valley (now Hope Valley) during Season 1 of When Calls the Heart, Rebecca Clarke (Bethany Joy Lenz) embarked on her very own journey to the Western Canadian frontier with her 11-year-old daughter (Mila Morgan) and landed in the very same place. Hearties, welcome to Hope Valley: 1874!
Ahead of the premiere of the new Hallmark+ When Calls the Heart prequel, TV Insider sat down with the Hope Valley: 1874 cast to answer the one question on everyone’s minds: How exactly does Hope Valley: 1874 connect to When Calls the Heart other than it being an obvious prequel? Well, as Hallmark’s newest Mountie, Lachlan Quarmby, put it, “There are definitely things that true fans can look out for.”
