They've shared many memories over the years, and now Melanie Brown is sharing another experience with the Spice Girls -- she's pregnant!

The 35-year-old singer joins Emma Bunton, due this May, and Victoria Beckham, who's expecting a girl in July.

Brown -- who's due in July or August -- tells Hello! magazine that she and husband Stephen Belafonte, 35, are "really excited about it and ready for it."

Brown is already mother to daughters Phoenix, 12, and Angel, 3, while film producer Belafonte is dad to daughter Giselle, 6. (All children come from previous relationships.)

"Both my pregnancies have been lucky and happy and exciting, no matter what situation I've been in," Brown explains. "This is different because we have been married for four years, we have a history together, we're best friends, we're in it together, and he's totally supportive."

The former Dancing With the Stars runner-up isn't worried about putting on pregnancy pounds, either. "I like the feeling of being pregnant. I like being able to just eat something if I'm craving it," she says. "I definitely do put on weight, but I think you're meant to when you're pregnant. I think it's healthy."

    January, Elizabeth Taylor had 4 children by different fathers. 2 from one marriage, 1 from another and then 1 from another. Do you say the same about her? Mel B was MARRIED to her first child's father for some years before they divorced and NOW she's MARRIED again and pregnant. Eddie Murphy's daughter is in between but the fact that she that TWO of her 3 children came from marriages doesn't make her trashy. If all THREE were from flimsy relationships then maybe but that is not the case here.

    Having three children by three different men shows very poor judgement on her part. Who said anything about abortion? Reading is fundamental. I'm a b**ch for thinking a woman should use her brain before procreating with a man? Part of being a good mother is using good judgement. I wonder what you'll say when she files for divorce in less than three years!

    Go Kimberly! January CLEARLY is living in the past. She was married when she had her first child, dating Eddie Murphy, then he broke up with her and DENIED it being his child. How is that tacky? At least she's a strong woman who has her children, rather than aborting them.

    You're such a b*&%h, January. She's been married for four years and is having a baby with her husband! So what she has kids from previous relationships. Isn't it better to show your children that you are a GOOD mother to them, rather than hide behind birth control and abortions?

    Gross, gross and gross! I thought her husband was her beard. He gives off a very, very charlatan kind of vibe. Also, this means she will have three kids by three different men? Very tacky so when they divorce all of her children will be going to different fathers on the weekend? What a great example she must be setting for her daughters!

    All the best to Mel and Steve! I love her show!
