Mel C admits to having eating disorder

Mel C admits to having eating disorder during her Spice Girl days.

The former Sporty Spice, whose real name is Melanie Chisholm, opened up about the eating disorder she developed as a result of the constant public scrutiny she faced as a member of the British girl band in a recent interview with BBC Good Food. “I joined the Spice Girls when I was 20, and it was an insane time. I developed an eating disorder,” she said. “I was in the spotlight, being photographed constantly, and I started to become self-conscious of my body.”
