“The number one rule for single-mum parenting . . .” – Soon-to-be Divorced Spice Girl, Mel B Advises

Spice girl Melanie Brown popularly known as Mel B, says she’s adjusting to life as a single mom again, nearly six months after her nasty split from estranged husband Stephen Belafonte.

The 42-year-old singer admits that there is one rule when it comes to parenting as a single mom. She said the number one key is to show your children enough love and respect.

According to PEOPLE, the stunning mother of three revealed that although it is a bit tactical being a single mom to her three kids but they are great kids and they have been amazing.

“My kids are great. They’re 18, 10 and 5, they’re all doing amazing and they’re all lovely. I just make them all listen to me,” she said. “And they don’t always do. I was a single parent for a long time with Phoenix, so I kind of learned that way, and moms always know best.

Phoenix, 18, is Brown’s daughter from her first marriage, to dancer Jimmy Gulzar. Brown and Gulzar split about a year after Phoenix was born. There’s no advice that I could give. Every mother, every parent is different.

Brown also joked that she’s so happy to be single right now after a group of hunky acapella singers from the Air Force Academy finished their rendition of Some Nights on Monday night’s quarterfinal episode of America’s Got Talent.
