It appears as though Tammin Sursok (Colleen Carlton) is exiting The Young and the Restless for good.

Sursok joined the cast in July 2007, in the middle of a whirlwind of controversy surrounding Adrianne Leon's exit from the top-rated series.

Now, rumors are swirling that Leon may be returning to replace Sursok, though a show spokesperson told SoapCentral.com that Sursok is scheduled to return to The Young and the Restless later this year.

Colleen will be written off the show for approximately six weeks because Sursok is filming a movie called Albino Farm.

Meanwhile, in addition to the rumors of a possible return by Leon to the show, there are whispers that Sursok's on-screen love, Eyal Podell (Adrian Korbel) will soon be exiting the series. We'll keep you updated on all these stories as they develop.
