    Melanie C was "beyond gutted" to miss Mel B's wedding on Saturday (05.07.25)

    The 51-year-old pop star couldn't attend Mel and Rory McPhee's wedding at St Paul's Cathedral in London, but she still took to social media to voice her support for her Spice Girls bandmate


    Melanie wrote: "So so happy for you both and beyond gutted I couldn't be there. Excited to celebrate with you really soon! Yippee! (sic)"

    Victoria Beckham, another of Mel's bandmates, was also absent from the wedding. However, she took to social media in support of the 50-year-old star, too.

    Victoria - who is married to soccer star David Beckham - said on Instagram: "Congratulations @officalmelb @rorymcphee on your special day! I couldn't be more excited for you both and wish you a lifetime of happiness! kisses xx (sic)"

    In another post, Victoria described Rory as a "very lucky man".

    The singer-turned-designer said: "Sending love to you @officialmelb! @rorymcphee is a very lucky man! xx (sic)"

    An insider has suggested that a scheduling conflict stopped Victoria from attending the ceremony.

    A source told the Daily Mail newspaper: "Victoria has long standing plans out of the country and she simply can't be there."

    Emma Bunton was the only Spice Girl in attendance at the wedding, where she was joined by her husband Jade Jones and their son Beau, 17.

    Mel - who was previously married to Jimmy Gulzar between 1998 and 2000 and Stephen Belafonte from 2007 until 2016 - wore a traditional white gown, adorned with pearls, for the wedding.

    The couple posed for pictures on the steps of the historic venue and shared a kiss, before heading to The Shard for their wedding reception.

    Meanwhile, the loved-up duo previously opened up about Rory's proposal, with the groom admitting that he felt "so nervous" before popping the question.

    He told HELLO! magazine: "I was so nervous, my lips were trembling. I'd spent ages writing down all these things I wanted to say, but when it came to it, I just babbled."

    Despite this, Mel insisted that Rory's proposal was "lovely".

    She shared: "It was lovely, what you said. He told me he loved me, that I was his best friend and that he wanted to be with me for the rest of our lives."
