“Our attitude always has been you know as the producing team around the writing team aroundWhen Calls the Heartthat what better place for second chances than Hope Valley,” he added. “And so in theory, it should work, right? But again, can’t can’t fully promise it but we’re working on it.”

Loughlin had played Abigail Stanton in the show’s first six seasons. However, halfway through season 6, her character was written out due to her and her husband,Mossimo Giannulli, being involved in the2019 college admissions scandal. The show’s writers, therefore, made it so that Loughlin’s character Abigail traveled back east to care for her sick mother.
Off screen, Loughlin and Giannulli — who paid $500,000 to ensure their daughtersOlivia Jade, 24, andIsabella Rose, 25, were accepted into the University of Southern California — eventuallypleaded guilty to the chargesin May 2020. Shecompleted a two-month sentenceat FCI Dublin, and her 60-year-old fashion designer husband served nearly five months at FCI Lompoc before being permitted tocomplete the remainder of his sentence from home.
