When Calls the Heart's Erin Krakow Gives Birth to First Child with Husband Ben Rosenbaum - Just Jared - Celebrity News and Gossip

Real-life Hallmark Channel couple Erin Krakow and Ben Rosenbaum are now parents!

The When Calls the Heart co-stars have welcomed a baby girl into the world.

The couple told People, “Our precious new family member entered the world in early April. Our daughter has been the greatest gift, and we are loving getting to know her better with each passing day.”

The couple added, “It’s already hard to remember life before she arrived. We are loving our roles as parents, and it feels like being parents together has only deepened our partnership. We are, however, a bit more tired, and Erin — who was a non-coffee drinker previously — has had a change of heart on the matter.”

Erin and Ben say that their daughter “looks like a total combo of the two of us,” according to friends and family. They think she “looks like her own little person to us.”

If you don’t know, Erin and Ben are co-stars on the Hallmark series When Calls the Heart. Erin has played Elizabeth Thatcher Thornton since the series launched in 2014. Ben has been playing the recurring role of Mike Hickam since season one as well.

While Erin and Ben have been linked for years, they kept their relationship very low profile and never even confirmed their engagement to fans. The couple announced their marriage in June 2025 by sharing photos from their wedding.
