The actor, who was recently bumped to recurring status at Days of our Lives and will still be appearing in Salem as Justin Kiriakis, tweeted that he'll be returning to GH on Monday, March 28.

"It's very nice [to be back]," says the actor, who left Port Charles last spring to take a contract position at DAYS. "There's not many of us left, us old vets that can bounce back. I think it says a lot about the fans who follow the show and who are loyal to the show. The Quartermaines are a core family and there's not that many of us left. I'm very happy to step back in as one of the Quartermaine characters and try to breathe some life into the Quartermaine mansion. When I walk back onstage, as far as I'm concerned, I'm never going to leave. I told Frank [Valentini, executive producer], 'Honestly, I won't leave unless you ask me to leave because I'm here to stay as long as I possibly can.'"

Kurth originally took on the character of Ned in 1991.
