Hunter King has quickly become one of the Hallmark Channel’s most beloved stars.
Of course, King was thrilled to continue her work with the media outlet.
“I feel so incredibly grateful and lucky to be part of the Hallmark family!

I’m so excited for what’s to come.
I get to be in Hallmark movies for a living!
Are you kidding me?

Is this real life?”
she said of the deal.
Of course, King admits that working for Hallmark is much different than appearing on a soap opera.

“It is very, very, very nice to play a different kind of role.
It is fun as an actor to play all different kinds of roles.
King’s character, Summer Newman, had a fan-favorite romance with Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor).
King hasn’t completely ruled out a return to “Y&R” in the future, though.
“People do come and go, and paths seem to cross in the soap world.
So never say never,” she toldSoaps.
However, the actor added that she’s focused on her Hallmark career at the moment.
