Mel B Pitches Reality TV Show About Her Life As A Single Mom

The former Spice Girl hopes to ‘Inspire woman,’ says a source.

What does Mel B want, what does she really, really want? A paycheck! Thanks to her ex-husband Stephen Belafonte’s wild spending — and their ongoing nasty divorce — the Spice Girl admits that her $50 million fortune is long gone, revealing in court that she has only $1,246 in her bank account. Now, with help from pal Mariah Carey’s PR team, Mel has decided to cash in on her heartbreak.

“Mel pitched a reality show to E! about her life as single mom, including her financial struggles,” explains a spy. “She’s even considering a Divorce Survival Kit app with pep talks and resources.”

While the 42-year-old is “embarrassed” to be better known for her failed marriage than a current song, she does have three little mouths to feed.

“Mel knows she has to swallow her pride and do whatever she needs to for her kids,” adds the friend. “And if it can help inspire other women who are going through the same thing, all
the better!”
