Daniel Lissing Is On The Rookie
On Sunday’s episode of The Rookie entitled “Breaking Point,” Daniel Lissing guest starred in what will be a recurring role.

Daniel Lissing Was A WCTH Fan Favorite
Daniel Lissing starred in the first five seasons of Hallmark’s beloved series When Calls The Heart as Mountie, Jack Thornton. He instantly became a fan favorite and show heartthrob. Before WCTH Season 5, Lissing made the decision to part from Hallmark’s top rated show. In that season’s storyline, Jack Thornton was killed offscreen. This broke the hearts of millions of hearties who loved his character and the actor.
Lissing has not stopped working. According to IMDb, in the past year, Daniel was in Hallmark’s Christmas In Love, and guested on four episodes of the CBS Show S.W.A.T. as Ty. He is now adding the recurring role on The Rookie to his resume. We don’t know how long he will remain on the ABC drama, but his legion of fans will certainly support and follow him on his different acting projects.
This is not the only new thing in his life. Daniel Lissing recently became engaged to his girlfriend Nadia.
Daniel Proposed To Nadia
In October, TV Shows Ace reported Lissing proposed to the love of his life. He did it with style, as a Tiffany’s bag in the social media photo. The Australia-born actor happily shared the details of the ring. Gushing that this was Nadia’s “forever” ring, he added that the “stone is a symbol of our love.” TV Shows Ace reported that he joked, “no pressure there!” But, he did not worry. He confirmed that “She was happy with my choice.”
What was in that little blue Tiffany & Co. bag? Inside was a princess cut ring set on a platinum band. The design has little diamonds surrounding the main diamond. This forever ring will certainly be a reminder of their love. The couple has yet to announce news on their actual wedding.
