Join us on for an incredible conversation with the amazing Kat Barrell as we dive deep into her role in the Hallmark movie The Christmas Baby. Known to many as Nicole Haught from Wynonna Earp, Kat joins us to discuss the importance of representing established queer marriages, the realities of motherhood, and why normalized sapphic stories matter now more than ever.In this episode, Kat opens up about the unique challenges and joys of working with infants on set, including the adorable tricks used to keep baby Lucas happy during filming. We explore why it was so refreshing to play a character whose drama stems from life’s big decisions rather than her identity, and how The Christmas Baby brings a much needed focus to adoption stories within the queer community. Kat also reflects on her ten year journey playing queer characters and the power of bringing inclusive storytelling to mainstream platforms like the Hallmark Channel.Whether you are a longtime fan of Nicole Haught or you just loved the heartwarming journey of Kelly and Erin, this interview is packed with behind the scenes insights and thoughtful reflections on the evolution of queer media.If you enjoyed this interview, please make sure to watch The Christmas Baby on Hallmark Plus and let the network know how much these stories mean to you.
