Mel B's Moroccan Magic: Second Wedding and Spice Reunion?
Mel B's Moroccan Madness: Scary Spice Ties the Knot AGAIN with Rory McPhee in a Glamorous Ceremony
It looks like Mel B is living her best life! The 50-year-old Spice Girl has just celebrated her second wedding to husband Rory McPhee in Morocco, and it was an unforgettable affair. The couple, who first tied the knot in London last month, marked their marriage with a spiritual ceremony at Selman Marrakech in the beautiful Moroccan city of Marrakech.
The festivities began on Sunday when Mel shared a glimpse of their latest nuptials on Instagram, captioning her post: "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!!"
This second ceremony was a far cry from their traditional wedding at St Paul's Cathedral in London, which was a rather low-key affair. For this Moroccan celebration, Mel wanted to showcase her individual and glamorous style. And what better way to do that than with a custom-made Justin Alexander gown, designed by the US-based designer in collaboration with Caroline Black of Evelie Bridal?
The sultry silhouette is entirely hand-beaded with rich red crystals and bugle beads, creating a mesmerizing floating effect across the illusion bodice and skirt. It took a team of six artisans over 850 hours to complete! The plunging sweetheart neckline is framed with concentrated red crystal detailing gradually dispersed across the structured corset. Exposed boning subtly peeks through layers of sheer tulle, while asymmetrical draping at the waistline adds dimension.
A sultry side slit reveals a glimpse of leg, as the crystal beading lightly scatters down the length of the skirt. The back features a lace-up corset with red ribbons to highlight Mel's hourglass figure, while a cascading godet flows into a dramatic cathedral-length train. And for the pièce de résistance, Mel completed her look with a Moroccan-inspired cathedral veil, custom-draped in mocha tulle and accented with red crystals to mirror the gown's embellishments.
But what really stole the show was Mel's sassy attitude towards her second wedding. "We got married again!" she exclaimed on Instagram. "Again! We couldn't get enough of each other...and our closest friends and family." It seems like Scary Spice is feeling the love!
And we can't blame her. After all, Rory McPhee is one lucky man. The couple has been going strong since their first wedding in London last month, and it's clear that they're still head over heels for each other.
But what about Geri Halliwell-Horner? It seems like the Spice Girl drama is far from over. Sources close to the pair have revealed that Geri was "deeply upset" by Mel's bombshell revelation in 2019, when she revealed that they had an intimate relationship while the band was starting out.
Geri's husband Christian Horner was reportedly "mortified" by Mel's claims, and it seems like their friendship is still strained to this day. But hey, at least Victoria Beckham made up for not attending the wedding in London by sending a sweet congratulatory message on Instagram. "Congratulations @officialmelb! @rorymcphee is a very lucky man!" she wrote.
It looks like Mel B's friends are rallying around her as she starts this new chapter with Rory. And we can't help but wonder: what's next for these two lovebirds? Will they be jetting off on a romantic honeymoon, or will they stay in Morocco to soak up the sunshine and celebrate their love?
Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – Mel B and Rory McPhee are living their best lives, and we can't wait to see what's next!
