Mel B Marries Rory McPhee, Again, In Lavish Moroccan Ceremony -- See Red Wedding Dress!
Mel B is officially off the market ... and walking down the aisle for a second time.
The Spice Girl tied the knot a second time with husband Rory McPhee, in an extravagant Moroccan celebration at a resort in Marrakech.
"We got married!!! Again! A wedding so good we keep the celebration going with our closest and dearest in our fav place at @selmanmarrakech ❤️❤️❤️ we had the time of our lives!!" Mel B captioned a joyful photo on Instagram shared Sunday, which showed the couple dancing down a white aisle surrounded by lush florals.
The 50-year-old pop icon stunned in a strapless red glittering gown by designer Justin Alexander, while the 37-year-old hairstylist looked sharp in a white and black tuxedo.
The couple first tied the knot on July 5 in a star-studded London ceremony held in the Crypt of St. Paul's Cathedral, inside the Order of the British Empire Chapel.
Guests included fellow Spice Girl Emma Bunton, model Cara Delevingne, comedian Katherine Ryan, and Daisy Lowe, daughter of musician Gavin Rossdale.
For the London nuptials, Mel opted for a custom ivory bridal gown from Josephine Scott, which featured a pearl-adorned neckline. She later changed into another Justin Alexander gown for the reception at the Shangri-La Hotel inside The Shard.
Mel and McPhee got engaged in October 2022 after three years of dating. The two were introduced by Mel's cousin, actor Christian Cooke, who is a friend of McPhee's.
This marks the third marriage for Mel B, who was previously married to Jimmy Gulzar from 1998 to 2000 and Stephen Belafonte from 2007 to 2018.
Mel, who was affectionately known during her time as a Spice Girl as "Scary Spice," is also a mom, sharing son, Angel, 18, with ex Eddie Murphy, and daughter Phoenix, 26, with first husband Gulzar.

Meet Pokey, an undersized Eastern box turtle with a cult following
When she first met the eastern box turtle named Pokey, Cleo Bowen-Wiggins was still in diapers — far too young to recognize she was in the presence of a local celebrity. But like so many others, she was captivated by the creature, sparking an unlikely friendship that endured for years. So there was no question as to whether Bowen-Wiggins, now 15, would be in attendance Saturday for Pokey's 30th birthday celebration. Held at Pokey's home inside the Rock Creek Park Nature Center and Planetarium in D.C., the event doubled as a turtle tribute.

Woman Ditches Her Friend's Birthday Lunch for Another Friend's ‘Last-Minute' Wedding. Now, She's Unsure If She Messed Up
'To me, a wedding (even a small one) carries more social weight than a recurring birthday lunch,' the woman wrote on RedditNEED TO KNOW A woman explained that she plans to ditch her friend's birthday party for another friend's last-minute wedding She said her friend, now upset, dislikes people 'who flake' The woman shared her story on Reddit, where opinions are divided over whether she mishandled the situationA woman said she's ditching a friend's birthday lunch for another friend's last-minute wedding, but she's not sure she's making the right decision. The 29-year-old woman detailed her story on Reddit's 'Am I the A------?' forum, where she said that her friend 'Sarah' invited her to an annual birthday lunch scheduled for the end of September. She explained that the lunch will be held in about a five-hour drive away from where she lives. The original poster (OP) went on to explain that she recently received an invitation from their mutual friend 'Katie' for a "very last-minute" wedding scheduled in the same city as the birthday party, just one week later. While the OP said Katie has been engaged for about 'three years,' she also said that the invite 'really came out of nowhere,' and so Katie said 'she understood if people couldn't make it.' And while the Reddit user said she RSVP'd 'yes' to the wedding, she now feels as though she's 'in a bind.' 'Whether I drive five hours or take multiple trains ($200), it's a long and expensive trip. Doing it once for Sarah's birthday was fine, but doing it again the next weekend for Katie's wedding is overwhelming,' she said. 'I'm also dealing with unexpected financial strain and bracing for loan repayment for my master's this fall.' The OP said that, because of this, she ultimately backed out of Sarah's birthday lunch — though she offered to celebrate with her another time. 'I'm just being realistic,' she continued. 'Two back-to-back weekends is a lot for someone coming from so far out of town.'

However, the OP said that 'Sarah didn't take that well,' and made it clear that she hoped all their friends would attend both events. The OP also said that Sarah 'distances herself from friends who flake,' and she's worried that she might be unfairly 'lumped into that category for setting a boundary.' 'To me, a wedding (even a small one) carries more social weight than a recurring birthday lunch [...], but I also get that Sarah made her plans first and that canceling after committing can sting,' she wrote. 'So, AITA [am I the a------]?' the woman asked at the end of her post. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! A number of Reddit users said that they thought the OP was in the wrong in this scenario — and that they understood why Sarah was upset. 'Sorry, but YTA [you're the a------] on this one. You honor the commitments you make. It isn't Sarah's fault that Katie didn't plan better for her wedding date.' 'YTA,' said someone else. 'You had already committed to Sarah. It doesn't matter that her birthday happens every year [...], you committed to go. Beyond that, it's super tacky to tell someone you will no longer attend their birthday because a new event is the next weekend.' Another person said, 'Ditching Sarah's long-planned event for Katie's (who even said she understands if people can't make it) last-minute event signals to Sarah that you don't value her friendship the same. You RSVP'd yes [and] that's a commitment. Sarah has every right to feel hurt.' One person, however, said that they think the real problem has more to do with Sarah and Katie's dynamic. 'NTA [not the a------],' they said. 'You all are in the same longtime friend group. Katie is finally getting married. But, Sarah didn't respond with a 'no problem, let's support Katie,' and Katie planned her wedding too close to Sarah's birthday. To an outsider, it seems like these two aren't very considerate of each other.' The same person continued, 'It sounds like you've faithfully attended Sarah's birthday celebrations in the past and want to make this one exception for a bigger life event. Your offer to meet up with Sarah after the wedding is a fair compromise on your part.' Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword
