When Calls the Heart’s season 11 finale left enthusiasts with a lot of unanswered questions — however stars Kevin McGarry and Erin Krakow are confident in Nathan and Elizabeth’s future.

The speech gave Nathan and Elizabeth the ability to go public with their romance in the season finale whilst attending Mei Sou (Amanda Wong) and Mike Hickam’s (Ben Rosenbaum) wedding.
“A large number of hindrances went away,” McGarry mentioned of Sunday’s episode. “I think they’ve recognized each and every other for five years, five seasons, and a lot has been kind of in the way of this romance. It’s a clear highway to romance now between the two of them and I think they’re making the most of it.”
Looking ahead to season 12, the actors informed Us that the love will proceed to blossom. “It’s a little of a honeymoon section,” Krakow stated of the TV couple.
“They’re in a brand spanking new segment. They’re taking the the city out,” McGarry added.
While enthusiasts are going to have to wait and notice what the WCTH cliffhanger method — a Mountie got here to town all over the ultimate seconds to inform Elizabeth he had information about her overdue husband, Jack Thornton — McGarry and Krakow have started to consider a possible TV wedding.
“It took 5 years to get to the kiss, so I imply, we got quite a lot of time to examine what this wedding ceremony [is] going to seem like,” McGarry joked to Us. “I will say if and when it happens — when and if it occurs — I'm hoping it’s special to them.”
