Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Susan may have ended up with someone else five years into the future, but Mike won't be leaving Wisteria Lane, actor James Denton denies reports he is leaving the show.

The 45-year-old "Desperate Housewives" star reveals to People.com that his character will stay on the hit ABC dramedy.

He says that although Mike and Susan (Teri Hatcher's character) have split, he will still be back, but he is just not "sure exactly in what capacity."

He tells the website, "Marc Cherry (show creator) is being a little cagey. It's going to be interesting to see what happens. But I will certainly be on the show. It's a relief to me, trust me."
