IT'S A "LOVE BOAT" REUNION WHEN MUSICIAN/ENTERTAINER CHARO AND ACTRESS JILL WHELAN SWAP LIVES FOR ONE WEEK, ON ABC'S "CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP," WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17

"Charo"/"Jill Whelan" - It's a "Love Boat" reunion when entertainer/musician Charo and actress Jill Whelan are featured on "Celebrity Wife Swap," WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17 (10:00- 11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Charo lives in Beverly Hills, CA with her husband of 36 years, Kjell. The couple has one son, Shel, who lives nearby but is always home visiting his family where Charo loves to entertain late into the evening. Showbiz is the family business with Charo's husband serving as her manager and her sister, Carmen, overseeing all of her costumes. Charo is a true performer who loves to sing, dance and celebrate life to the fullest.

Jill Whelan is an actress living in Los Angeles, CA and is best known for her role as Vicki Stubing on the iconic television series, "The Love Boat." Twice divorced, Jill is a proud, single mom to two boys: Harrison and Grant. Jill's sister, Nancy, is a big help when it comes to household needs and child care. A true homebody, Jill is usually in bed by 9:00pm.

When it's time for the swap, both Charo and Jill are excited for their upcoming adventure. Having worked together on "The Love Boat," they recognize their "new families" right away. But, will Charo's "all showbiz, all the time" mentality be a match for Jill's "leave Hollywood at the door" household?

"Celebrity Wife Swap" features two women of celebrity families trading households, lifestyles and children (but not bedrooms) for one week. During that time, the women - and swap families - learn what it is like to live in someone else's shoes, but everything changes during the second half of the week when the women make their own rules and get the chance to run the household their way. At the end of the week, the couples reunite for a raw, honest and highly-charged exchange of views in which they make frank assessments of one another and discuss the experience.

"Celebrity Wife Swap" is produced by Zodiak LA. Bruce Toms, Tony Yates, Alex Cross, Michael Davies, Joel Karsberg, Cem Yeter and Dave Shikiar are executive producers. It is broadcast in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC's selected HDTV format, with 5.1-channel surround sound. This program carries a TV-PG,D,L parental guideline.
