Mel B has shared her part in planning the engagement of a couple on stage at a Spice Girls concert in Manchester.
Lee Christie proposed to his partner Duane Watters at Etihad Stadium last night.
Lee was of course cheered on by Mel, Melanie C, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton – plus 60,000 of the band’s fans!
Reacting, Mel told Gay Star News: ‘I was so happy to be part of their love story!’
‘They told me how they had met at a Spice Girls show,’ she furthermore explained.
‘So how fabulous was it to make his dream come true and do the proposal on stage?!’
‘It was a fantastic moment,’ she furthermore added. ‘People in the crowd were crying with emotion. All of us girls were jumping up and down when he said “yes”.
‘Girl Power, Scary Power, Gay Power – it’s all about sharing the love!’
Mel, who has spoken before about her romantic relationships with women, has said she does not define her sexuality. She told us last December: ‘I know there are words out there: “fluid”, “pan”, “bi”, whatever you want to call it.
‘That’s good for somebody if you need it. Each to their own. But for me, personally, I don’t feel the need to be labeled.’
The Spice Girls, including absent member Victoria Beckham, have sold 85 million records worldwide. They’re known for hits like Stop, Wannabe and also Spice Up Your Life.
The 2019 Tour continues into June, with dates in cities including Coventry, Edinburgh and London.
