Lorna Tolentino jumped ship once more, this time from TV5 to GMA-7.

The multi-awarded actress signed an exclusive two-year contract with the Kapuso network on Thursday, October 11.

According to a press release sent to Yahoo! Philippines OMG! Lorna feels glad to come "home" to GMA after four years.

Among the drama series Lorna did for the network  were "Now and Forever," "Linlang", "Sugo" and "Hanggang Kailan".

"I’m very happy to be back. I am happy kasi GMA is my home na rin, home naman nating lahat ito," Lorna said.

GMA Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe L. Gozon says Lorna is "very welcome" in GMA.

"Isa siya sa pinakamagagaling na artistang kilala natin," Atty. Gozon added.

GMA has lined up "an even better project" than the shelved "Haram" primetime series for the returning Kapuso.

"Yung ipapalit na project is with the same cast and even better. Heavy drama ito. We cannot see anybody to play the role except Ms Lorna. She is a big boost in GMA’s stable of stars," GMA Entertainment TV’s OIC Lilybeth G. Rasonable said.
