Mel C has admitted that she wouldn’t have the life that she does without the help of her fellow former Spice Girls.

The 37-year-old singer, who is mother to two-year-old Scarlet, said that the support she gets from Emma Bunton, Mel B, Geri Halliwell and Victoria Beckham is second to none.

“I am thankful to my ex-colleagues. My current life would be impossible without them. We support each other 100 per cent,” she told the Daily Star.

And talking about Victoria’s new daughter, Harper Seven, she added, “I was in LA the day before Victoria gave birth so we met and swapped baby tips. I really like the name Harper.

“It’s better for people to be creative than for everyone to have the same name.”

She also admitted that motherhood can be more exhausting that a pop career. “If I go to work, it’s like a holiday,” she said.
