Kevin recounted, “There was an issue at the studio, resulting in a delay for the chemistry read I was supposed to have with [Erin Krakow]. They reassured me that it was being handled, and someone would be sent down. To my surprise, Aunt Becky herself said, ‘Hey, I’m going to take you to [the read],’” he recounted to Us Weekly. He, of course, was referring to Lori’s role on Full House. “It felt surreal. Throughout my entire first season on the show, she was nothing but supportive.”
“Many people have mentioned they’d be happy to see her return. Of course, it’s not up to us,” he added. Erin shared similar sentiments.
“Lori is a remarkable individual and a close friend. Her kindness is profound, and it would be amazing to welcome her back to Hope Valley,” Erin relayed.
Kevin also mentioned, “The past couple of years have had their challenges, and the cast has really pulled together for anyone facing tough times. That’s the real magic – the bonds you see on screen reflect our off-screen relationships as well.”
For those unaware, Lori Loughlin was written out of When Calls the Heart following her involvement in the 2019 college admissions scandal. However, in 2021, she returned to her role as Abigail Stanton in the spinoff series When Hope Calls, which was part of the Great American Family’s second season lineup.
