Beloved Hallmark couple Erin Krakow and Ben Rosenbaum are weeks away from welcoming their first baby, and they’re definitely having a good time getting ready. To mark Valentine’s Day 2026, Rosenbaum posted a pic of Krakow trying on an Artipoppe Zeitgeist denim baby carrier, laughing as her hubby squeezed through so that his head was peeking out.
Friends and fans loved the cute pic, which Rosenbaum captioned, “Guys, she said she’ll be my Valentine 😍 @erinkrakow 💌”
‘When Calls the Heart’ Castmates Had Fun With Erin Krakow & Ben Rosenbaum’s Pic
Krakow responded to Rosenbaum’s post with three emoji — “🥰🥰🥰” — but fans and friends had much more to say to the adorable couple, who’ve both starred on “When Calls The Heart” since its first season in 2014.
Their WCTH co-star Miranda MacDougall definitely won for funniest comment, writing, “They do say the baby starts out looking like the father….but this just uncanny.”
Krakow replied to MacDougall with a crying-laughing emoji and Amanda Wong, who plays Rosenbaum’s wife on WCTH, wrote, “😂😂😂😂 full stache and everything!”
Another castmate, Andrea Brooks, quipped, “Mom and dad! You two are silly! 😂”
Fans also adored the February 14 pic, flooding the post with comments, including one who wrote, “SOOO CUTE!!!! You two are precious!! *oops, you three! 😉🤭💖💖💖 Happy #Hearties day! ♥️”
Another commented, “This is so cute!! Love these two so much! Can’t wait to hear about when their baby is born!!”
Erin Krakow Posted Her Own Valentine’s Day Photo
Krakow, who plays WCTH series lead Elizabeth Thornton, posted her own Valentine’s Day pic — far less funny but just as sweet — of her and Rosenbaum on a beautiful beach as she cradled her baby bump.
The couple announced their pregnancy just before Thanksgiving 2025, months after surprising fans in June with the news they’d gotten married.
Prior to that, Krakow and Rosenbaum kept Hearties guessing about their relationship for years. They were long-rumored to be a couple, as they periodically post photos of fun trips and outings they shared with dear friends and castmates Kevin McGarry and Kayla Wallace.
Questions about the duo’s relationship status increased after they adopted a rescue pup named Willoughby in January 2023.
But it wasn’t until Valentine’s Day 2024 that fans got the confirmation they needed to consider Krakow and Rosenbaum an official couple, when she posted a photo of herself kissing Rosenbaum on the cheek and captioned it with an emoji of an anatomical heart.
Krakow and Rosenbaum aren’t the only Hallmark couple expecting a little one this spring. Their WCTH besties, Wallace and McGarry, announced their first pregnancy on November 11. And WCTH Chris McNally announced weeks later that he and his longtime love, Hallmark actress Julie Gonzalo, are expecting their second baby.
Thanks to Ryan Paevey for posting about scammers. We all should be aware of the signs and fall prey to these people who eventually try to take money from lonely people.
I Love Erin & Ben
They are the Cutest Couple. I can’t wait to hear when their Precious Baby arrives.
Also, thank you to Ryan Paevey for letting us know about the Scammers. I’ve gotten a few from different Hallmark Stars. I Don’t respond, but I feel bad if their good ones & I don’t respond. I LOVE HALLMARK all the Stars.
