Kristina Wagner portrays Bill’s estranged wife Nora Avery – and Kristina says things are going to get very interesting during the third season. Viewers can expect a few twists and turns. In an interview in the most recent issue of ABC Soaps In Depth Kristina revealed that it has been difficult to “separate the Frisco and Felicia connection” on the set of “When Calls the Heart.”

It was enjoyable to work with Jack, even though Kristina and Jack are divorced – as are Felicia and Frisco on “General Hospital.” Kristina revealed in the interview with ABC SID that she was excited to be on set with her ex-husband because it gave the former couple a clean slate. The actors had to figure out first, “who are we today” and then “what do we have to bring to [“When Calls the Heart].”
