Mel B isn't "very proud" that she has two children by two different fathers.

The former Spice Girls star had her eldest daughter Phoenix, 11, with her ex-husband Jimmy Gulzar and three-year-old girl Angel from her brief relationship with Eddie Murphy, and she admits she has to work hard to keep the family harmonious.

Mel B used to "hang her head in shame" when people doubted Eddie Murphy was the father of her child.

The former Spice Girls star - who has a three-year-old daughter Angel with the comedian - admitted she doesn't think the 'Flubber' star will ever have a role in the tot's life because of his conduct during her pregnancy.
