I am a bit disappointed, so I don't know what to tell you. They just didn't want to write for me, I guess." However, seven months later, it was announced on Haiduk's web page that she would be returning for additional appearances beginning on September 20, 2012, which occurred for one week. In 2013, when asked of her current status with the soap opera, Haiduk stated: "As you see, I come back and leave, I come back and leave."
