Congratulations are in order! Hallmark’s When Calls the Heart co-stars Erin Krakow, who plays Elizabeth Thatcher, and Ben Rosenbaum, who portrays Mike Hickam, are expecting their first child together.
The couple shared the exciting news on Instagram with a heartwarming announcement just one day before Thanksgiving.
In the joint post, Erin wrote, “So much to be grateful for!!!” The photos show the happy pair holding their fur baby, Willoughby, alongside a sonogram of their little one. It’s an adorable family moment that had a ton of fans swooning in the comments.
Many fellow actors and friends quickly chimed in with congratulatory messages. Candace Cameron Bure wrote, “Congratulations!!!!” while Lacey Chabert added, “So thrilled for you!”
About Erin Krakow and Ben Rosenbaum’s Relationship
This milestone follows an exciting few years for the couple. Erin and Ben first went public with their relationship in February 2024. In June 2025, they shared that they had tied the knot, posting photos from their outdoor wedding and captioning them with an infinity symbol.
They join their When Calls the Heart co-stars Kevin McGarry (Nathan Grant) and Kayla Wallace (Fiona Miller), who confirmed their relationship in 2020, married in 2024, and are also expecting their first child together.
Fans will also recognize Willoughby, the couple’s adopted furry friend, who made an appearance in their pregnancy announcement sporting a “big brother” T-shirt. Erin had adopted him from an animal rescue in January 2023, just a week after welcoming him into their lives.
Fans of the show won’t have to wait long to see Erin and Ben back on screen. An all-new season of When Calls the Heart premieres Sunday, January 4, at 8/7c, with episodes available the next day on Hallmark Plus.
It’s a joyful start to the holiday season for the Krakow-Rosenbaum family, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for their growing family—both human and furry! Congratulations.
