Mel B Has Been Hospitalised With Two Broken Ribs And A Severed Hand

The Spice Girls visited Mel B in hospital

Mel B (A.K.A Scary Spice) was last night involved in a freak accident which saw two broken ribs and her right hand severed. 

Andrea Brown, Mel B’s mother, revealed to The Daily Mail that her daughter had fallen down a flight of stairs at a friend’s home which resulted in the star needing to be rushed to the hospital. 

Mel B took to Instagram to share a snap of herself in the hospital lobby with her arm in a sling, thanking hospital staff and nurses, the caption read, “Thankyou to all the wonderful nurses dr’s and my amazing surgeon for the care and expertise given to me here at the hospital I’ve been staying at.”

The America’s Got Talent judge continued by revealing in her post that she needed emergency care and surgery for her injuries, “suffering 2 broken ribs a severed right hand needing emergency care, to having had to have over a 3 hr surgery to repair the damage hence the purple sling.”  

Mel B also posted a snap to her Instagram of the Spice Girls (sans Victoria) visiting their injured gal pal in the hospital along with the caption, “When your besties show up to hospital with hugs laughter and ALOT of love.”

Mel B – who has detailed her substance abuse issues in the past in her memoir Brutally Honest – has since made a statement through her lawyer Taline Boyamian that neither drugs nor alcohol were involved in the accident. 

We’re sending all the well wishes Mel B’s way this morning!
