Matthew bowed out as David Metcalfe last November, and explained beforehand why it "feels like the right time" to say goodbye to the show.
"I'm so nervous about leaving, almost two decades," he told This Morning.
"The door's left open, they're not killing me off, I've been promised," the star added. "I'm allowed to tell you that. So who knows, I might be back, we will see."
Celebrity Side Hustles is available to stream online now. Emmerdale airs on weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1, and streams on ITVX.
