Samantha Logan and Robert Irvine To Guest Star on 'Melissa & Joey'

Melissa & Joey is amping up their guest stars! THR reports that two new named will be appearing in the third season of the hit ABC Family series.

Samantha Logan is set to guest star in a recurring role while chef Robert Irvine will also be appearing as a guest star.

Samantha's role is described:

Logan will begin appearing in the 21st episode of the season, titled "Plus One," as the poised, mature and super-intelligent Stella, Ryder's (Nick Robinson) chemistry lab partner. Initially reluctant because she has a lot going on in her life, Stella finally agrees to go on a date with Ryder, and Mel (Melissa Joan Hart) and Joe (Joey Lawrence) are shocked to discover that Stella is juggling high school and motherhood.

Sounds interesting. I'm curious how Robert Irvine will be integrated into the show.

Irvine, who hosts Food Network's Restaurant Express and Restaurant: Impossible, will play Chef Le Pins, an imposing chef at a renowned restaurant known for describing his meals in a breathy, seductive voice. He is offended when Joe attempts to re-cook a seared salmon dish. He will guest star in the 20th episode of the season, "Feel the Burn."

We can't wait to see that!

ABC Family also recently announced that Melissa & Joey would be returning in December for a special Christmas episode.
