Is Paul Greene Leaving ‘When Calls the Heart?’ Hearties Are Worried

“Big decisions for Carson #hearties,” actor Paul Greene mysteriously tweeted on March 22, 2021. 

Carson receives the exciting news about the much-enviable fellowship in Episode 6 of When Calls the Heart — and he seemingly rejects the offer in the same episode. Carson’s significant other, Dr. Faith Carter (Andrea Brooks) isn’t on board with his decision, however, and she tries to convince him to change his mind. But so, what will Carson choose?

As die-hard Hearties will surely remember, Carson and Faith already spent a considerable chunk of time apart. In Season 7, for example, Faith moved to Chicago to attend medical school — which had a big impact on their relationship. In Season 8, Carson finds himself in an uncannily similar position, having to choose between spending time with his significant other and accepting the fellowship in Baltimore, Md. 

Reluctant to move to Baltimore at first, Carson starts to change his mind after his ambitious plans to expand the infirmary go bust. He struggles to envision a scenario in which he would be leaving Hope Valley without Faith, however. 

Faith agrees to move to Baltimore, Md. with him, only to backtrack later on. In the end, she has to tell Carson that she won’t be able to accompany him on the journey — which leaves him with no choice but to set out alone.
