Hallmark spoilers and updates tease that Hallmark’s upcoming series has welcomed a new cast member, Chyler Leigh. She’s joined the cast as Kat Landry, the daughter of Del Landry (Andie MacDowell).

Kat is the estranged daughter of Del. She moved away from her small farm in Port Haven several years ago after a family tragedy. She’s struggling with her life at the moment, with her marriage coming to an end and getting fired from her job.

Kat returns home after receiving a letter from Del, pleading for her to come back. Alice, Kat’s 15-year-old daughter isn’t excited about their move. But they will both have an unexpected reunion when they arrive at her family’s farm.

The Way Home follows the story of three generations of women from the Landry family, Del, Kat, and Alice.
