Eastenders' star Joel Beckett, who plays Jake Moon, will return to the soap after taking a short break.
It was reported last month, that Beckett and his on-screen brother, Jake Maskall (Danny Moon), had been sensationally axed after only three months on our screens.
More recently a story in a tabloid newspaper sparked rumours that Beckett would be given a reprieve.
"Joel Beckett will be leaving the Square briefly in July but will be back soon after," a spokeswoman for the soap told DS.
She added: "Jake Moon is set to be involved in a series of blistering storylines that will see him at the heart of the action in Walford throughout the autumn."
Beckett commented: "Yes, it's true, I'm not leaving the show. I'm already involved in some cracking storylines and am looking forward to having the opportunity to develop my character further."
An EastEnders insider also revealed: "The door is still open for Danny's return too!"
