  • Spice Girls member Mel C has married Australian model Chris Dingwall after a three-year relationship.

Melanie Jayne Chisholm, famously known as Mel C from the iconic British pop group Spice Girls, has officially become a wife. She married her partner of three years, Australian model Chris Dingwall, in a private ceremony held at a Country House in Cumbria, United Kingdom.

The wedding was an intimate affair, attended by close family and friends. Notable guests included Mel C's fellow Spice Girls members Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, and Melanie Brown, who celebrated the couple's union.

Prior to the UK ceremony, Mel C and Dingwall had already exchanged vows in Sydney, Australia, on July 18. For the UK celebration, the singer, also known as Sporty Spice, chose a white gown designed by her former bandmate, Victoria Beckham. While Victoria Beckham was unable to attend the UK event due to her commitments at a World Cup match in the United States, her design added a personal touch to the occasion.

This marriage marks a significant milestone for Melanie C, as it is her first. She was previously in a long-term relationship with Thomas Starr, which lasted for a decade before their separation in 2012. The former couple has one daughter together.
