In an interview with People magazine, Mel C admitted that in 1997, before the first Spice Girls concert in Istanbul, she was raped by a hotel masseur. After that, the singer began to experience depression, anorexia, panic attacks and agoraphobia. For a quarter of a century she has been on antidepressants.
“I thought that over time everything would be forgotten, but time following time there were periods when I just fell into despair,” Mel C shared the other day. – Tablets gave only a temporary effect. I became afraid of men. Because of this, all my relationships were doomed. Now I’m looking for an experienced psychiatrist who can provide real help.
The poor woman never got married. Many ties, such as with pop star Robbie Williams, quickly ended. And only the construction developer Thomas Starr lived with Mel C for 10 years and became the father of her daughter Scarlett.
Keep in mind
- The Spice Girls will release an extended version of their 1997 album Spiceworld. It will include bonus tracks and unreleased live recordings.
- In terms of the number of solo singles in first place in the UK charts, Mel C is second only to Paul McCartney and John Lennon.
