Mel B Shows Off Baby Madison For The First Time!
Posted on September 20th, 2011 at 11:20 am by Nick Crew
Two weeks ago Melanie Brown gave birth to her third child, a beautiful baby girl she named Madison. But despite little Maddy being the former Spice Girl’s third daughter, Mel has expressed how this time around, things are different and she puts it all down to her wonderful hubby, Stephen Belafonte.
Speaking to exclusively Hello! magazine in the UK, the 36 year-old has said that she feels she has ’finally done it right,’ after her two failed relationships with the fathers of her other daughters, Jimmy Gulzar and Eddie Murphy.
She said: “Ideally you want to have your loving partner who you’ve created this baby with by your side throughout everything, and in Angel and Phoenix’s cases, that wasn’t the set up.”
She tells the magazine that giving birth this time around was completely different, and how she finally felt she had a partner to go through the whole experience with, referring to Stephen as, “Someone to come to every appointment with’ and ‘get excited by every scan.”
The happy couple posed proudly in the current issue for the first time with baby Madison who was born earlier this month weighing in at six pounds and two ounces. Mel has described the latest addition to the family as ‘such a chilled baby’ and calls her ‘so gorgeous.’
Well Mel, they say third times a charm and it seems to me that you and Stephan are proof of that…Congrats to you both!
Mel B: “Stephen will probably pass out at the birth!”

Former Spice Girl Mel B is convinced that when that magical moment arrives giving birth to her third child, husband, Stephen Belafonte, will “probably pass out and require medical attention!”
In the interview with Hello! Magazine out this week, a heavily-pregnant Mel said she expects her two daughters to be more helpful than her husband; “Phoenix and Angel will be there with me during my labor, which is just as well as Stephen will be a complete nightmare”…
I bet poor ol’ Stephen loved reading this! *Cringe*
The 36-year-old continued: “I pretended to him the other day that I was in labor and he just went white; he didn’t have a clue what to do. He’ll be panicking and probably take us to the wrong hospital”…
This will be the first child for Melanie and Stephen, who married back in February of 2007, and the arrival of tiny feet could come any day now, though we’ve been waiting for Mel to ‘pop’ for weeks… In fact she is overdue!
In a response to former bandmate Mel C’s tweet, Mel B said: ‘(It was due) YESTERDAY!!! Help!!! It likes being in my tummy too much right now’…
Somebody please get this girl some spicy food pronto! I’ve heard it helps induce labor. In any case I wish her all the best for when that big day comes.
A little advice for you too Stephen…just breathe… We are sending you out another batch of Frosted Cupcakes (spicy ones if poss…Of course)!
Mel B Splashes Out In Style on Hubby Stephen’s Birthday!
Posted on May 18th, 2011 at 5:52 pm by Nick Crew
Mel B is currently on the other side of the world working as a judge on the Australian version of X Factor, but that didn’t stop the former Spice Girl from spending time with her husband Stephen Belafonte on his birthday.
Heavily pregnant Mel took some time out of her hectic schedule to treat her hubby to a romantic £600 (almost a $1000 U.S) lunch at the Cottage Point Inn. However, the establishment happens to be over 20 miles from Sydney where she is filming the show.
So what is one to do?? Well, Melanie decided to splash out in style with no expense spared and hired a seaplane to fly the pair of them as a surprise! Bish-bosh… and twenty minutes later the happy couple was fine dinning at the waterfront restaurant.
Hmm, I’ll shall remember to do the same next time I need to fit in a lunch appointment, (ahem)…I wish!
Belafonte could not contain his excitement and what other way to tell the world of his wonderful day… Via his Twitter account of course, he wrote, ‘Bout to take my black azz on a sea plane with my beautiful wife!!!’… What a wife she is, eh!? Good ol’ Mel…
The Brown-Belafonte’s are due back in Los Angeles once filming is over just in time for the birth of their child. Best of luck to them!
Mel ‘B’ is For Baby Bump!
Posted on March 30th, 2011 at 11:29 am by Nick Crew
What a difference a week makes! After announcing she was three months pregnant last week, you couldn’t even tell but it seems Mel B is finally starting to show signs of a bump, as the former Spice Girl was out in Los Angeles last night for dinner with her husband Stephen Belafonte.
The 35-year-old star is obviously noticing the size increase more than anyone as she explained via for Twitter account; “Feel like my baby bump has a life of it’s own cos it doubles in size on a night time, seriously!”… Lets see what next week brings!
As for the pregnancy itself, Mel and Stephen are said to be over the moon. In an interview with Hello! Magazine, she said, “We’re really excited. We wouldn’t have planned and waited for four years to have a baby if we weren’t really excited about it and ready for it. Even though you can never really be truly ready.”
There must be baby fever going around in Spice World, with Mel pregnant, that makes it three former members that are all up the buff at the same time. We all know Victoria is due in July and Baby Spice, Emma, is due in May…2011 certainly looks to be will be a spicy year!
Hello, Hello…The Beckhams Put On a United Front!
Posted on November 8th, 2010 at 6:20 am by
Here’s something that makes one proud to be British in LA… David and Victoria Beckham continue to show a united front this week, opening their hearts to HELLO! magazine on how they keep their romance going strong after 11 years of marriage.
In the rare interview, David reveals that he and Victoria keep their spark alive by having regular date nights, he says: “We always make time for each other, We [Victoria and I] have a ‘date night’ every Wednesday.”
In the past, unlike so many other celebrity couples, The Beckhams appear to have had a stable relationship, never allowing the doubts and disturbances of the tabloids enter their lives.
Recently however, the stunning ‘power-pair’ became the subject of speculation after call girl; Irma Nici alleged in September she had slept with Mr. Beckham on seven occasions.
Regardless of the allegations, Mrs. Beckham insists their marriage is still on course despite the ‘ups and downs,’ saying: “You go into marriage knowing there are going to be ups and downs.
We’re in the public eye so we have more to deal with than most. We accepted that years ago. It’s just about us and the family.”
And clearly putting their recent troubles behind them, the former Spice Girl, now a top fashion designer declared: “We’re soulmates.” Adding: “Sometimes people throw S**t at us, but we get through it.”
Victoria also confesses her love for sunny California, stating that though she likes the UK, she has no plans to quit Los Angeles, as she likes the energy of the city. David told the Los Angeles Times last week: “Our boys go to school here. They’re happy here. As long as they continue to be happy here, and my wife’s happy here, then we plan on staying.”
Nice to know the Beckhams are staying in Tinseltown, what would we do without them? I guess we always have that ‘other’ Spice Girl, Mel B and her hubby Stephen Belafonte… Hmm, but not quite the same stock if you ask me… Thank goodness for the Beckhams!

Mel B’s Looking Hot in the Malibu Sun!
Posted on August 6th, 2010 at 6:24 pm by
Alright Mel, there’s no need to rub it in! The mother-of-two showed off her ab fab abs on the beach in Malibu today, while enjoying a drink and a stroll with hubby Stephen Belafonte.
But it wasn’t just her front that looked pretty pert-fect, the backside view was pretty impressive too!
Mel has released her own fitness DVD, modelled for Ultimo lingerie, as well as getting into tip top shape for a run in Las Vegas show, Peepshow, last year.
Stephen and Mel have just signed up for their own reality show, which she has promised will be ‘crazier than the Osbournes’ – I can’t wait!
To maintain her gorge figure, Mel’s said to be a fan of yoga, swimming and Capoeira.
Whatever she’s doing, it’s working!
Mel B’s a Perv … Er, So’s Her Hubby!
Posted on June 18th, 2010 at 11:47 am by
Scary Spice, Mel B has never been once to mince words, which is why she’s one of the funnest people to interview, and last night she did it again on the George Lopez Show.
Lopez was interested in how Mel maintains her frankly, fierce body and asked if (as rumoured) it’s down to five-times-a-day sex seshes with her husband.
Most celebs would back off from such a personal question but our Mel happily replied that it had only been three times that day because she’s been a bit busy before bursting into that trademark cackle.
She then went on to say “Me and my husband, we’re the same age, he is my best friend, and I guess we’re both just perverts with each other.”
Maybe a case of TMI Mel, but in a world of tightly PR-ed celebs who are afraid to say anything in case they cause a scandal, we wouldn’t have you any other way!
Style Network Gets Scary… (Spice)!

Brit reality show fever strikes again!
Mel B (aka Scary Spice) will be the focus of what is being described as a “docu-comedy” reality series developed for the US cable channel Style Network. The skein will follow the so-called “hilarious” lives of Mel, hubby Stephen Belafonte (a movie producer), and her two daughters as the family co-exists in Los Angeles.
The show is scheduled to be shown in the US this September and across the pond at a later date. President of the Style Network Salaam Coleman Smith said: “Mel B is confident, hilarious, and outrageously entertaining.”
She added: “We love that Mel has evolved her image and sought new challenges throughout her career while also taking on the ups, downs that come with motherhood and marriage.”
Mel recently attendedthe premiere of Shrek Forever After with former partner and baby-daddy Eddie Murphy, after their very messy split in 2007. Footage of that premiere is expected to feature in an episode of the as of yet untitled show.
Uhmmm… does Mel’s new affiliation with the Style Network mean that someone thinks she has style? (Rude!) At least no one can deny the girl is entertaining, but I wonder if she has what it takes to carry an entire reality show…
Well, given the stiff competition from other upcoming reality shows like fellow Brit – former wild-child Emma Ridley’s (pictured) outrageous new show Spoiled Rotten, the former Spice Girl will have to prove she’s something worth watching on the telly…
