JOE SURPRISES MEL FOR HER BIRTHDAY WITH A GIFT SHE HATES ON AN ALL-NEW EPISODE OF ABC FAMILY'S "MELISSA & JOEY," WEDNESDAY, JULY 15th AT 8PM ET/PT

Burbank, CA (June 25, 2015) - It's Mel's birthday, and Joe surprises her with not one but two hideous gifts on an all-new episode of "Melissa & Joey," airing Wednesday, July 15th (8:00PM ET/PT) on ABC Family.

Mel pretends to love her birthday gift from Joe. But that turns out to be a fake gift to throw her off. Instead, he had a one-of-a-kind wedding ring made for her that she hates even more and is horrified she has to wear the rest of her life.

"Melissa & Joey" stars Melissa Joan Hart, Joey Lawrence, Taylor Spreitler and Nick Robinson, and is executive-produced by Bob Young & David Kendall, Paula Hart, Melissa Joan Hart and Joey Lawrence.
