The spice Girls congratulate Mel B on the news of her thrid child

  Melanie Brown’s former bandmates from the Spice Girls are apparently thrilled to hear the news that the singer turned TV presenter is pregnant with her third child.

  The Wannabe singer has announced she is set to become a mum again this summer and her ex-bandmates are ecstatic to learn there will be another Spice Girl baby.

  In a post on her Twitter.com page, Emma Bunton, who is expecting a baby boy later this year, writes, "We've spoken privately but congratulations again!"

  Melanie Chisholm adds, "More babies!! Love and congratulations to Mel B and (husband) Stephen (Belafonte)", while Geri Halliwell has also sent her best wishes.

  Brown tells fans on her own Twitter page, "Big thanks to my spice girls melc, geri and emma for all the baby well wishes! Love you!"

  Unfortunately, there's no mention of the other pregnant Spice Girl, Victoria Beckham.
