Throwback To When David Beckham Thought Of Mel B’s Abusive Husband To Be ‘Bad News’; Singer Reveals Details

Mel B has been openly discussing her abusive former spouse, whose presence reportedly upset David Beckham. The member of the Spice Girls disclosed that Beckham considered Stephen Belafonte as a negative influence on the singer. In her 2018 autobiography, she mentioned that her ex-husband would persistently urge her to introduce him to the English athlete, an encounter which at one point left her feeling embarrassed.

During a section from the book “Brutally Honest,” the author (the singer), mentioned that David arrived later in the afternoon accompanied by his sons: Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz.

According to Beckham’s account about Belafonte, Mel B wrote in her book that “David later shared with my mom, ‘I immediately sensed trouble the first time we met.’

In her explanation of their encounter, Mel B noted that while everyone seemed enamored with showing off their kids, Stephen was particularly drawn to David. For quite some time, he had been urging Mel to take action about this interest of his.

The Aspiring Singer admitted to frequently coming up with reasons to prevent her ex from encountering Beckham. “I’d say they were always busy, week after week,” she explained. “They weren’t available. I didn’t want them to spend an evening with Stephen. Wouldn’t you do the same?

Despite the musician strongly objecting to Belafonte meeting the athlete initially, the encounter ultimately took place, leaving Stephen noticeably irritating Beckham.

The musician was against allowing Belafonte to meet the athlete, but eventually they managed to arrange a meeting. This interaction appeared to annoy Beckham quite considerably, as observed by Stephen.

In her autobiography, Mel B explained that when everyone was socializing, David would often go to the kitchen to cook ramen noodles for his kids. It was clear that he desired privacy and time with his children at that moment.

She continued, “Stephen clearly didn’t grasp that concept at all. The sight of him storming into the tiny kitchen took me aback. In the periphery of my vision, I noticed that Stephen was merely trailing David, making a racket, cracking jokes, and attempting to persuade him to go out partying with him. He even suggested, ‘Why don’t we hit some bars? You must know the hot spots, right?’

For a decade, Stephen Belafonte and Mel B were husband and wife, but they subsequently filed for divorce, citing allegations of domestic abuse as the reason.
