The ongoing love triangle between Cole (Noah LaLonde), Jackie (Nikki Rodriguez), and Alex (Ashby Gentry) has been the subject of much debate, and Season 2 will dive right back into Jackie’s romances with the Walter brothers as she returns to Silver Falls. In the teaser, Jackie believes she doesn’t “belong anywhere anymore,” but she ultimately returns to Silver Falls after spending the summer in New York. Upon her return, she’ll have to face her feelings for both Cole and Alex.

Zoë Soul, who plays Hayley, Will’s wife, will be a recurring cast member in Season 2. She was a series regular in the first season. Additional recurring cast includes Isaac Arellanes, Myles Perez, Alex Quijano, Ashley Tavares, Dean Petriw, Alix West Lefler, Lennix James, Alisha Newton, Ellie O’Brien, Kolton Stewart, Mya Lowe, Gabrielle Jacinto, Jesse Lipscombe, and Nathaniel Arcand.
Five new recurring characters were announced on November 18, and many appear to be possible love interests for characters we know and love. Natalie Sharp will play B. Hartford, a “champion rodeo rider who catches the eye of one of the Walter boys. As confident and sure of herself as she is tough, smart, funny, sexy and cool, she has a bit of a chip on her shoulder about being a female in a male dominated sport and knows she’s better than the rest of them.”
Carson MacCormac will play Zach, a “strikingly handsome senior who’s commanding and a bit dangerous. With charm and confidence dialed up to 11, Zach makes strong attempts to get to know Nathan.” Riele Downs is Maria, a flirty girl in Alex’s Driver’s Ed class, Maria takes a seat next to Alex before class begins — much to Kiley’s dismay.”
Jake Manley plays Wylder Holt, a “rising star among bronc riders under 25, Wylder is a competitive force to be reckoned with who crosses paths with Alex.”
Janet Kidder will play Joanne Wagner, “Grace’s mom who’s a bit old-fashioned and resistant to change. She’s also a good friend of Katherine’s, which proves a bit complicated as George and Will’s development plans in Silver Falls are underway.”
Jason Priestley, who directed two episodes from season 1, will return to direct multiple episodes and will also serve as a Season 2 producer. Becky Hartman Edwards has joined as an executive producer for Season 2.
What happened at the end of Season 1?
At the beginning of the series, Jackie moved from New York City to Colorado to live with the Walter family after losing her family in a tragic car accident.

After adjusting to her new life in Colorado, Jackie was seen flying back to the Big Apple with her Uncle Richard (Alex Quijano) in the final scene of the season. The night before, Jackie and Cole shared a passionate makeout in the barn after he sweetly fixed her mother’s broken teapot. While this was going on, Alex was asleep after getting drunk at his brother’s wedding. He professed his love for Jackie, but she didn’t say “I love you” back.
The next morning, Jackie was gone. She only left a note for the Walters that read: “I’m sorry.” This was a sharp departure from the book’s ending where Jackie chooses to be with Cole.
What will happen in Season 2?
Season 2 will bring Jackie back to Colorado. Her life with the Walter boys is far from over. Showrunner Melanie Halsall never wanted Jackie to choose between Cole and Alex at the end of the first season. “I knew I didn’t want to do that,” she told Variety. “The thought I had in my head was that she wouldn’t end up with either boy — that she’s a successful young woman, striving out on her own, without a romance.”
Rodriguez knows Jackie will end up leaving Manhattan again for Silver Falls in Season 2. “I mean, obviously, Jackie would have to come back to Colorado but what makes her come back? I don’t even know. I’ve thought about so many different options,” Rodriguez told Teen Vogue. “I’ve tried to really keep an open mind. But I am really interested to get that first script and see what brings Jackie back and what she gets herself into.”
Even though Jackie was with neither Cole nor Alex at the end of the season, the love triangle is just ramping up. Gentry teased to Tudum that Season 2 will be “juicy with a capital J.”
Gentry told Swooon that the love triangle will continue to cause tension between Alex and Noah in Season 2. “The only way out is through,” Gentry said. “I do think that they will come out of it, out of this sort of feud that they found themselves in.” He later added, “There are some moments where they’re brothers, and it’s kind of funny.”
The official synopsis for Season 2 reads: “After leaving Silver Falls following Alex’s love confession and her kiss with Cole, Jackie Howard spent the summer in New York City. When Katherine convinces her to return to Colorado, Jackie is determined to make amends with Alex and set boundaries with Cole while finding her place within the Walter family. But fitting back in isn’t that easy. Alex – who changed a lot over the summer – isn’t too thrilled about Jackie’s attempts to reconnect, as he’s focused on training for a risky rodeo event (and enjoying all of the new attention he’s getting). Meanwhile, Cole takes on a new role at school, but when that doesn’t quite fill the void left by not playing football, his old ways creep back in and cause drama. As Jackie gains acceptance in Silver Falls while trying to hold onto her Howard identity, she’s forced to make a choice that could destroy everything she’s worked to rebuild.
Will there be a My Life with the Walter Boys Season 3?
Yes, Netflix has already renewed My Life with the Walter Boys for Season 3. In May 2025, Netflix announced the renewal and revealed the third season will premiere in 2026.
