Mel C's tweet |
Melanie Brown also tweeted to thank for all the well wishes and later to declare her love to her husband. First she wrote, "I wanna thank you ALL for your beautiful well wishes, it means a lot to me, you guys are the best, I am SOOOOOO blessed my heart is melting!!" and "I didn't think it was possible but I love you even MORE now honey, we have a truly amazing family xxxx"
The news of the birth of Melanie and Stephen's daughter - name, weight and height currently unknown - comes after Melanie said that "I've tried everything, I've tried the hot food, the running, the sex, the violence, I've tried it all. It just seems to be stuck and hibernating in there getting bigger and bigger, so it's coming out this week for sure." That most certainly turned out to be true.
Congrats to the Brown-Belafonte family.
UPDATE: Mel and Stephen have named their daughter
Madison Brown Belafonte.
