Scary Spice pregnant with Murphy's baby

Former Spice Girl Melanie Brown is reportedly expecting boyfriend Eddie Murphy's baby.

The 'Wannabe' singer is reportedly four months pregnant with the 'Daddy day care' star's child.

It will be Murphy's eighth child and Brown's second.

According to entertainment news website TMZ.com, Brown confirmed the news while shopping at Le Bra Lingerie boutique in West Hollywood on Saturday.

She is a frequent customer and admitted that the pregnancy had left her feeling tired.

She also said she was concerned she may be pregnant with twins, since they tend to run in Murphy's family.

While on her shopping spree, she picked up nearly $5,000 worth of Eres lingerie and $3,000 worth of La Perla men's undershirts and underwear for Murphy.

In April, Murphy's divorce from his ex-wife Nicole became final. The Shrek star has five children with Nicole, a son with Tamara Hood and another son with Paulette McNeely.

Brown has a seven-year-old daughter, Phoenix Chi, from her previous marriage to Jimmy Gulzar.

The news comes amid rumours that the couple are set to tie the knot sometime next month.
