"I had always clung on to the idea that he wasn't dead, so I'm very happy it's not the end of him," he told Inside Soap.
"The story we've gone with is great and totally plausible and it makes you ask a lot of questions. What's Kurt running from?
"There are some wonderful scenes with Nick where Kurt has to explain himself to him and just says, 'I'm tired of running. I just wanted to come home,' which is very sweet.
"And Tony welcomes him with open arms, because Tony's the nicest man in world!"
