Mel C admits Spice Girls reunion has triggered 'a lot of anxiety'

Mel C has told how she plans to get super-fit, both physically and mentally, for the Spice Girls tour next year.

Sporty Spice, 44, admitted working with the band again had triggered “a lot of anxiety”.

She said: “I’m going to be visiting my therapist a lot more.

“I do see a therapist, talking is so important.” On Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast, Mel said: “The last time round with the Spice Girls, towards the end, I had a very difficult time.

“So going back into that environment I’ve had a lot of anxiety. I’ve had some wobbles.” The Spice World tour, with Geri Horner, Mel B and Emma Bunton, but not Victoria Beckham, starts in May. Tickets cost from £60 to £241.

Mel aims to be in top shape. She said: “It’s a very physical show. We know people worked really hard to afford tickets, so we want to put on a really good show.

“Physically, I’m going to be really taking care of myself.”
