Mel B Divorce Looming?

Either Mel B and her husband are heading for divorce or they're trying to drum up interest in their new reality show.

From The Mirror
Spice Girl Mel B’s three-year marriage is FINISHED, her husband Stephen Belafonte has revealed.

The film producer told me in an emotional telephone outburst from the States: “Dude, it’s over. Mel’s coming back to the UK soon – but I won’t be coming with her.”

And I can reveal he has talked to lawyers in Los Angeles about a divorce from Scary Spice Mel.

The couple wed in 2007 just six months after Mel’s bitter split from actor Eddie Murphy – dad of her daughter Angel, three.

Only days ago the couple, both 35, were photographed kissing over lunch, and Mel has posted Twitter updates referring to her “hubby”.

But pals have said for months that the pair’s rollercoaster relationship was finally hitting the rocks.

And now Belafonte admits ¬divorce is on the way. He told me: “There’s been problems lately. I don’t know what’s happening.”

A friend of Mel said: “They’ve not been happy for a long time and there’s been rowing.

“Mel’s been talking about getting out. They’re still talking to see if things can be worked out.

“But she’s making plans to come back to the UK on a more ¬permanent basis. Stephen hasn’t been ¬mentioned as joining her and has been consulting lawyers.”

Mel's reality show 'Mel B: It's a Scary World' premieres Sunday September 5 on the Style Network.
