Hallmark Stars Chris McNally and Julie Gonzalo Kept Their Romance and Baby a Secret
Hallmark actors Chris McNally and Julie Gonzalo have successfully kept their romantic life private for several years, including the news of their first baby's arrival.
In June 2022, Gonzalo shared a photograph of their newborn holding onto the fingertips of both parents, writing: “Our hearts are full. Welcome baby M.”
Prior to the surprising baby news, McNally had only confirmed having a girlfriend, choosing not to reveal her name publicly.
However, sharp-eyed fans noticed the presence of identical pets in social media photos posted by both Gonzalo and the When Calls the Heart star.
Speaking to My Devotional Thoughts in January 2019, McNally said: “I am mostly focusing on the puppies. My girlfriend and I each adopted a puppy, so I’m looking forward to being home with them when I can.”
McNally spoke further about their relationship in May 2019, explaining how he used dance skills learned while filming Hallmark’s A Winter Princess to woo Gonzalo. “I waltzed her around the living room,” he told North Shore News. “But she’s South American so now she wants me to learn to Salsa.”
Below is a summary of Gonzalo and McNally’s relationship progression:
