Earlier this week, The National Enquirer reported that Drea de Matteo was leaving Desperate Housewives.

This is untrue, though many viewers might not mind if it were, considering the growing frustration over the actress' character and her slow-moving storyline.

But Beau Mirchoff (Danny Bolen, pictured) has a message for fans: be patient!

He told Fancast.com that mysteries surrounding the Bolens will "become more clear in the next few episodes." The family might not be hiding out on Wisteria Lane for evil reasons.

Before the major reveal takes place, Angie will attempt to relocate her brood, Mirchoff said, adding: “An event happens that puts our family in an awkward position."

Might that event be the much-hyped December 6 plane crash? Readers continue to chime in about who will die following that tragic accident.
