Spice Girl Melanie C stuns on romantic island getaway with Australian model boyfriend
Spice Girl Melanie C – aka Sporty Spice – looks as fit as ever in these candid new vacation photos. The 90s pop legend, 51, escaped to the island of Mallorca for a romantic getaway with her partner, Australian actor and model Chris Dingwall. Advertisement The loved-up pair each shared a carousel of photos from the vacation on Instagram, with Melanie looking absolutely ripped in a tiny two-piece black bikini – and in another snap, relaxing on a boat while reading a book about the history of ecstasy use in dance music. 4 Spice Girl Melanie C shared photos from her romantic vacation with model Chris Dingwall. @melaniecmusic / Instagram Fans and friends were full of praise for the star in the comments section. 'Seeing Melanie look this healthy and happy melts my heart,' one longtime fan wrote. Advertisement 'Gorgeous to see you so happy and relaxed,' wrote UK broadcaster Kate Thornton. 'You're both so cute together. Love seeing you enjoying moments of love,' another fan gushed. 4 The pop singer captioned her Instagram carousel 'a slice of paradise.' @melaniecmusic / Instagram Dingwall is originally from Sydney but travels the world as a model signed to Ford Models and Chadwick. Advertisement The pair went public at Wimbledon in London last July, days after they were spotted walking hand-in-hand at the iconic Glastonbury festival. But they had been quietly dating for months before that: Melanie's frequent visits to our shores earlier in 2024, ostensibly for DJing gigs, also doubled as quality time with Dingwall as the pair shared romantic getaways in resorts across Brisbane, Byron Bay and the Whitsundays. 4 The 90s pop icon showed off her toned body in the photos. @melaniecmusic / Instagram Since those early days the pair have become more open about their relationship, with Melanie C even professing her 'love' for Dingwall on social media in January after he wished her a happy 51st birthday. Advertisement Furthering her Aussie connection, Melanie C will soon appear as one of the celeb coaches on the next season of Seven's music contest The Voice alongside Ronan Keating, Richard Marx and Kate Miller-Heidke. She was based in Bondi while she lived here to film the season, and also made a surprise appearance at a Sydney gay club in April, filming scenes for a new music video. 4 The couple first went public in July 2024. @melaniecmusic / Instagram Melanie C is undoubtedly the most private of the five Spice Girls when it comes to her love life, largely keeping her relationships out of the public eye since a string of romances with high-profile musicians. She has a teenage daughter from a longtime relationship with ex-partner Thomas Starr. The pair split in 2012 after a decade together. After that, Melanie dated her manager, Joe Marshall, for seven years before they split in 2022.

Melanie C 'beyond gutted' to miss Mel B's wedding
Melanie C was "beyond gutted" to miss Mel B's wedding on Saturday (05.07.25). The 51-year-old pop star couldn't attend Mel and Rory McPhee's wedding at St Paul's Cathedral in London, but she still took to social media to voice her support for her Spice Girls bandmate. Melanie wrote: "So so happy for you both and beyond gutted I couldn't be there. Excited to celebrate with you really soon! Yippee!" Victoria Beckham, another of Mel's bandmates, was also absent from the wedding. However, she took to social media in support of the 50-year-old star. Victoria - who is married to soccer star David Beckham - said on Instagram: "Congratulations @officalmelb @rorymcphee on your special day! I couldn't be more excited for you both and wish you a lifetime of happiness! kisses xx (sic)" In another post, Victoria described Rory as a "very lucky man". The singer-turned-designer said: "Sending love to you @officialmelb! @rorymcphee is a very lucky man! xx (sic)" An insider has suggested that a scheduling conflict stopped Victoria from attending the ceremony. A source told the Daily Mail newspaper: "Victoria has long standing plans out of the country and she simply can't be there." Emma Bunton was the only Spice Girl in attendance at wedding, where she was joined by her husband Jade Jones and their son Beau, 17. Mel – who was previously married to Jimmy Gulzar between 1998 and 2000 and Stephen Belafonte from 2007 until 2016 – wore a traditional white gown, adorned with pearls, for the wedding. The couple posed for pictures on the steps of the historic venue and shared a kiss, before heading to The Shard for their wedding reception. Meanwhile, the loved-up duo previously opened up about Rory's proposal, with the groom admitting that he felt "so nervous" before popping the question. He told HELLO! Magazine: "I was so nervous, my lips were trembling. I'd spent ages writing down all these things I wanted to say, but when it came to it, I just babbled." Despite this, Mel insisted that Rory's proposal was "lovely". She shared: "It was lovely, what you said. He told me he loved me, that I was his best friend and that he wanted to be with me for the rest of our lives."
