With her former band mates Victoria Beckham and Emma Bunton pregnant, perhaps she felt left out.

Mel B has announced that she, too, is pregnant. The Spice Girl is expecting her first child with husband Stephen Belafonte this summer.

'We’re really excited. We wouldn’t have planned and waited for four years to have a baby if we weren’t really excited about it and ready for it. Even though you can never really be truly ready,' the 35-year-old told Hello! magazine.

The couple, who began trying for a baby around Christmas and fell pregnant soon afterwards, say they were surprised it happened so fast.

The full interview with Mel B is in this week's Hello! Mel says: 'The power of wanting a baby, I think, can sometimes just work to your advantage. I didn't think I would get pregnant that quickly.'

The singer has two daughters - Phoenix Chi, 12, from her first marriage to backup dancer Jimmy Gulzar, and Angel, three, from her short-lived relationship with Eddie Murphy. Stephen has a six-year-old daughter Giselle from a previous relationship.
