Scary Spice Mel B and husband in marriage counselling

Former Spice Girl Mel B admits she and husband Stephen Belafonte have been seeing a therapist throughout their four-year relationship.

The couple see a counsellor once a week, reveals oel, but it is a measure that helps their relationship rather than one that signals any problems in their union, the singer insists.

“It’s nice to show your vulnerability sometimes,” says Mel of the weekly sessions. “I work through my frustrations by talking. I talk a lot. I’ve always been very open – maybe that’s why I got the name Scary Spice.”

She also said the pair, who married in 2007, rarely argue. “We’re very tight. You might think we’re volatile but we’re not. We don’t row – we have ‘conversations’.”
