Mel B's Wedding Includes a Special Gift From Victoria Beckham

It's giving posh.

The Gist

  • Victoria Beckham designed Mel B's daughter's dress for the former Spice Girl's wedding.
  • Emma Bunton, a.k.a. Baby Spice, was the only fellow band member in attendance.
  • Mel B has three daughters in total: Phoenix, Angel, and Madison.

Despite her absence from former Spice Girl Mel B's wedding, Victoria Beckham still managed to be there in spirit thanks to one very special outfit. The fashion mogul designed a custom slip dress for Mel B's daughter, Phoenix, and the proud daughter wore it to celebrate her mom's big day.

Phoenix looked stunning in the slinky light blue gown, which she paired with the most classic of British wedding accessories: a large decorative hat.

Mel B's nuptials took place at St Paul’s Cathedral in London. While it was previously reported that Beckham would design Mel B's wedding dress, she ultimately went with a custom gown from Evelie Bridal. She and her now-husband Rory McPhee exchanged their vows in a traditional ceremony in front of a small guest list that included Cara Delevingne. As for the other Spice Girls? Only Emma Bunton, a.k.a. Baby Spice, was able to join.

Mel B and McPhee coupled up in 2019 and got engaged in 2022. The duo have actually known each other since childhood, when they were introduced by her cousin. Mel B has been married twice before.

“I believe in love, and clearly the other two marriages turned out to be not love, from their angle,” she told People. “So I feel like I've really missed out, and now I've got this opportunity to be properly in love with a really good guy who I know loves me for me, who's known me before I was a Spice Girl, why wouldn't I do that?”

The singer has two other daughters apart from Phoenix. She shares her eldest with her ex-husband Jimmy Gulzar, her middle child Angel with Eddie Murphy, and her youngest Madison, with her ex-husband Stephen Belafonte.

“I hope I’m raising three confident, strong women on the inside who are appreciative, respectful and supportive of other women," Mel B once said, per People.
