Melissa, who is already a seasoned television presenter in her own right, is due to start filming on August 31 when the show resumes taping. At this stage, sources say Melissa has signed on for six shows and it is unclear when these episodes will make it to air.

According to the New York Daily News, Melissa will be joined by a rotating panel of celebrities on Fashion Police.

“It’ll be a tribute to her mom, and Melissa’s the one who understands how it’s done. She can pull it off,” the source told the publication.

Melissa’s mother Joan passed away in September last year at the age of 81, after complications arose durng a throat surgery. The comedy icon had been an integral part of Fashion Police and the show went on hiatus in March after co-hosts Kelly Osbourne and Kathy Griffin (who was originally brought on as Joan’s replacement) also left.
