Tragic Details About The Spice Girls

In 2018, fans of the Spice Girls saw terrifying news. Melanie Brown — Mel B — was in a scary accident. In an Instagram post, the singer showed off a huge cast on her arm with a sling around her neck. According to the post, she suffered "2 broken ribs a severed right hand." 

As a result, she needed extensive surgery that lasted over three hours. Though she didn't reveal the cause of her accident, TMZ reported what actually happened. A friend of Mel B's, Gary Madatyan, claimed the singer fell down a set of stairs. Reportedly, while staying at a friend's house, Mel B started to head downstairs from a bedroom when she lost control and tumbled. Apparently, "the staircase was narrow and Mel lost her footing and fell."

Fortunately, there was a happy ending to the frightening fall. Mel B posted on Instagram a photo from a hospital bed, but this time not alone. All the other Spice Girls, with the exception of Victoria Beckham, showed up to support their injured bandmate. "When your besties show up to [the] hospital with hugs laughter and ALOT of love ... I love my spice girls," Mel B captioned.
