Congrats to Melanie Chisholm: the former Spice Girl gave birth to her first child on Monday. Mel C and boyfriend Thomas Starr announced the birth of daughter Scarlett Starr on the singer’s website.

“Melanie C gave birth to a beautiful little girl at 4.10pm on Sunday 22nd February. Both mum and baby are doing well.”

35 year old Mel C was the last of the Spice Girls to become a mother: Victoria Beckham and husband David Beckham have three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz; Emma Bunton gave birth to a son, Beau, in 2007; Geri Halliwell has two-and-a-half year old daughter Bluebell; and Mel B has two daughters, Phoenix Chi, ten, and Angel Iris, one-and-a-half, with former boyfriend Eddie Murphy.
