What To Watch – Hallmark Happenings for April 27, 2024. Since it’s Saturday, we get a full day of movies. Weekends are full of the greatest of Hallmark movies. This Saturday, we also get the new Spring Into Love movie, Branching Out. It stars Juan Pablo Di Pace and Sarah Drew.
Ten years ago, Amelia Weber (Drew) had a baby on her own. Today, Amelia’s charming
daughter Ruby (Cora Bella, Test Drive) is her everything. When Ruby gets a school assignment exploring heritage and creating family trees, she notices hers is small and sparse. With the help of a DNA test, Amelia learns that Ruby’s father T.J. Cruz (Di Pace) lives nearby. Meanwhile, the endearing T.J. is a professional guitarist who hasn’t found success the way he always dreamed.
Amelia makes contact, and to her surprise, T.J. wants to meet Ruby. T.J. has a huge family, and suddenly Ruby’s family tree has sprouted leaves! Romance takes flight as Amelia gets to know T.J. and is invited to take part in his family’s Mexican traditions. Along the way, Amelia’s protective instincts – both for herself and her daughter – are challenged, especially when T.J. gets the chance of a lifetime that might take him away. With the help of an adorable little girl who has a big heart and a thousand questions, Amelia and T.J. discover that family trees can be
complicated and wonderfully unique, especially when love is what ties everyone together.
