It’s been a tough couple years for Mel B, and now, the Spice Girls singer has realized she needs professional help to tackle some of her demons.
According to media reports out today at The Sun, the 43-year-old is heading to rehab to treat, among other things, both alcohol and sex addictions, as well as PTSD after the end of her extremely volatile marriage to Stephen Belafonte.

Mel B candidly spoke publicly about seeking treatment, too, sharing this with the media outlet before entering the rehab facility (below):
“I’ve been working with a writer on my book, Brutally Honest, and it has been unbelievably traumatic reliving an emotionally abusive relationship and confronting so many massive issues in my life. I am being very honest about drinking to numb my pain but that is just a way a lot of people mask what is really going on. Sometimes it is too hard to cope with all the emotions I feel. But the problem has never been about sex or alcohol — it is underneath all that.”
Interesting…
Here’s hoping Mel B takes her time in treatment and gets the help that she needs to get to a better place — we’re rooting for her!
