As a die-hard When Calls the Heart fan with a heart as vast as Hope Valley itself, I can’t help but feel a pang of empathy for our dear Lucas. The poor soul has been through the wringer these past few seasons! From losing his resort project, nearly getting killed by an ex-flame, and having his dream woman slip through his fingers, it seems like Lucas’ luck has hit rock bottom.


As if Lucas has hit rock bottom in Hope Valley, a romantic shift seems imminent in the upcoming season 12 of When Calls the Heart.

Oh, poor Lucas! Over the past few seasons of that addictive TV series, fortune hasn’t seemed to smile on him. In a short span of time, he’s seen his cherished resort project fall through, the partner he hoped to marry slip away, and learned that an old flame attempted to have him eliminated.

Based on Chris McNally’s recent statements to Good Housekeeping, it seems like things are about to take a turn for the better for him, as there appears to be a potential spark of chemistry that could bring significant changes.

As a devoted fan, I can’t hide my excitement about the upcoming addition to our storyline. This new character seems to be a formidable adversary for Lucas, but there’s an undeniable spark between them that has me intrigued. I can’t wait to see how their dynamic unfolds!

I’m still undecided, but I believe fans are going to look forward to encountering this fresh character and learning about their story.

Without a doubt, his feelings towards Elizabeth remain uncertain following such a passionate relationship. In the ninth season, Lucas proposed, leading viewers to anticipate that their marriage could be celebrated in the tenth season.

It’s common knowledge that Elizabeth ended their engagement due to her unwillingness to leave Hope Valley. Meanwhile, Lucas has been grappling with his injuries and the loss of the resort project, but Elizabeth found romance with Nathan, culminating in them becoming an item during Season 11.

For some time now, Lucas has been deeply missing his former lover (given his current circumstances, isn’t it expected that he clings to this emotion?). However, McNally believes it’s high time for Lucas to break free from these feelings.

He genuinely feels joyful about her situation, yet it’s clear it still hurts him,” he noted. “I don’t believe Lucas can alter his current journey – it seems like a predestined path to him. He’s learning to accept it and finds solace in it. Of course, he wishes things were different, but ultimately, he deeply cares for Elizabeth and wants her happiness above all.

Following rumors that Lucas could depart the series after Season 11, viewers can breathe a sigh of relief as it appears there are still many storylines left to unfold. Though the specifics remain unclear, one thing is certain: there’s never a lack of drama in Hope Valley.

On January 5, 2025, Hallmark Channel will welcome back When Calls the Heart in its twelfth season. Until then, ponder over the unresolved mysteries that Season 12 aims to clarify, along with additional heartwarming small-town stories found in Virgin River Season 6 and Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3.
