Mel has now made her first social media post as a newly married woman. Taking to Instagram, the Spice Girl shared a joint post with her new husband as she shared a snap from her wedding day with fans.
The newly-weds simply captioned the snap of them posing outside St Paul's Catherdral: "[heart emoji] 05/07/25." The pair were quickly flooded with messages of love from her thousands of followers.
St Paul's Cathedral is not usually a wedding venue, even though Prince Charles and Princess Diana married there in 19181. However, Mel was able to celebrate her nuptials at the iconic London landmark, which are rumoured to have cost £28,000, because she is an MBE, due to her charity work.
Joining her and Rory at the resplendent church, was Baby Spice star, Emma Bunton and her family. Victoria Beckham said she couldn't attend due to 'prior commitments' and Mel C is in tour in Sweden.
Geri, meanwhile, has has had rocky relationship with Mel, with sources telling the Mail she'd "lost patience" with Scary's "little jibes and digs" after Mel sensationally claimed she had slept with Ginger Spice when they were on tour.
The Mirror revealed earlier today that mum-of-three, Mel, would be given away by friend and journalist, James Steen. The former Mirror journalist filled in for Mel's father Martin, who sadly died in 2017 after a five year battle with myeloma cancer.
James is the husband of Louise Gannon, Mel's biographer. The couple are parents to Charlie Steen - the lead singer of punk band Shame.
Meanwhile, Rory's best man was be his brother Jordan McPhee, while the flower girls were Mel's nieces.
Rory, who has known Mel before her Spice Girls fame and who is a friend of her cousin is said to be as "un-showbiz as they come".
A close friend of the couple told us "It's why everyone thinks that they get on so well… and why he is so good for Melanie. He doesn't come from that fake, entertainment world. He is down to earth, family orientated and just a normal bloke."
