AceShowbiz - Mel B (Melanie Brown) has reportedly been dating her hairdresser Rory McPhee for two years on-and-off.
The Spice Girls star allegedly met McPhee through her cousin, actor Christian Cooke, and the pair attended a wedding together last month (September 2019).
"Mel and Rory have been friends for years," a source tells The Sun. "Sparks flew between them two years ago, but they have upped the ante by going public. At the wedding they looked so happy together."
"Mel isn't looking for a serious relationship, and Rory is very easygoing, so they are keeping things very casual and chilled for now," the source continues. "As far as they are both concerned, they are happy and that's all that matters. Mel can't stop smiling when she's around him."
Mel B, who split from ex-husband Stephen Belafonte in 2017, was asked about her dating status last month and she told British TV host Jonathan Ross she was single.
"Mel didn't want to open up about them dating on TV, and Rory accepted that," the source adds. "He knows her main focus is her kids. He doesn't try to push her into anything, so she can relax. She has met his family and they think she's great."
