Hallmark’s Erin Krakow, 41, and Ben Rosenbaum, 39, are walking for a purpose!
In a video shared to Rosenbaum’s Instagram, he and Krakow enjoyed an evening stroll together in preparation for a special fundraiser they plan to walk for later this month.
Erin Krakow & Ben Rosenbaum Raise Awareness for MS
During their video, Rosenbaum began by adorably signing to Krakow, “Walking with my date!” As the soon-to-be mom started to laugh, Rosenbaum explained how they plan to walk for the 2026 Walk MS: Greater Los Angeles event to raise awareness for the incurable neurodegenerative disease.
“Guys, very good news. Erin is coming out from behind the scenes and joining me this year to raise money for Walk MS, the national MS event that we do each year together,” Rosenbaum explained.
“We’ve been doing it for over a decade now, and with your help, in the past few years since you’ve been joining us on this journey, you have helped us raise so much money for such a good cause, and we couldn’t be more grateful, so we’re just inviting you; if you have the ability — the desire — please click the link in our bios,” he added.
Krakow chimed in to share that there will be “a lot of prizes” for those who donate through a raffle, adding, “It’s a cause that’s near and dear to our hearts, and it’s been really meaningful to see all the ways you’ve come out to support it over the years.”
The 2026 Walk MS: Greater Los Angeles event will be held on Sunday, March 29, at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California. The official website for the fundraiser describes the event: “Walk MS unites the MS community in the largest gathering of its kind to raise funds and make a difference for those living with MS.” The beloved Hallmark couple has already raised over $11,000 as part of their $15,000 goal.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, MS, short for multiple sclerosis, “damages the protective cover around nerves called myelin in your central nervous system. It can cause muscle weakness, vision changes, numbness and memory issues.”

With Krakow in her third trimester as she carries her and Rosenbaum’s first child together, fans of the “When Calls the Heart” star poked fun in the video’s comments section, suggesting that Krakow is utilizing the walk to induce labor.
“Walking that baby out? 😜 Always love helping you support this cause 🫶,” wrote one.
“Walking the baby out!” added another.
Many others commented on how adorable Krakow and Rosenbaum looked as they embraced the last few weeks as empty nesters before tiny feet and laughter fill their home with joy.
“You two are the cutest ever!! ❤️ And so proud of you for doing this each year!” exclaimed one fan.
“Love how she is glowing!” said another.
