It’s been a rough year for for mom Melanie Brown. From her difficult pregnancy to the subsequent paternity battle, it’s been anything but calm waters for the lead Spice Girl songstress.
Mel’s latest hurdle to overcome? Accusations that her husband Stephan Belafonte is a wife beater.
“Everything I stand for is about being a strong, independent woman, so for him to be seen as a wife beater is devastating for me because he’s not - he never has been,” she tells the upcoming issue of Hello! magazine.
Mel also admitted that she hates it when her family and friends get the idea that her hubby is some kind of “psychopath.”
“They’re trying to make him out to be this aggressive, violent, woman batterer and he’s not. If you read those police reports, they never say he physically beat up a woman,” she says. “The only thing I don’t like is that my friends and family read this and go into shock-horror mode, thinking, ‘Oh, she’s married a psychopath!’”

The baby’s cute. Fucked for having a loser father and crazy-ass mother — but cute.
Just the fact that there ARE police reports is disturbing.
^That’s true. She has the worst taste in men (which is unfortunate considering that she has two girls - great role model).
Angel is a precious.
didn’t they just get married? stephan looks just like his father!!
uhm, yeah hello, police reportS. more than one. even just one.
That guy is really sleazy looking to me for some reason….
Two fucking bat shit crazy people and beautiful baby.
I hear he loves to hurt ducks.
someone tell why he changed his name to Belafonte?
He isnt realted to HARRY Belafaonte whatsoever.
Do I have to?
I’d rather say GOODBYE, and never hear/see them again.
Why would he have that last name if he’s not related to Harry? Just a coincidence or is it like that Will Smith movie where he played the con who claimed to be Sidney Poitier’s son?
At least she looks a bit better than she was a couple months ago. Hopefully she can look as great as she did when she was a Spice Girl.
^Uhm, who stole my name AGAIN?!?!? What police reports??? I have heard nothing about this gossip?? Who did he beat up?
Why isn’t the other child in this happy family photo?
Once I found out that he changed his last name to Belafonte so people would think he was related to Harry, I’ve been disgusted.
She better watch her back, because he’s a slime-bucket.
The rumors about him beating his ex-girlfriend or whatever are disturbing but what about the fact that he bludegeoned a duck to death out front his house?!?! I mean WHO DOES THAT? That’s seriously crazy, anger management problems. He may have changed however and it must be awful for Mel to hear about people talk about her husband like that. It always hurts to hear people put down people you love, even if you know its true.
