MEL B’s estranged husband has desperately begged his wife for a “cash advance” in new papers as their divorce battle becomes increasingly strained.

Lawyers acting for Stephen Belafonte, 41, have insisted he needs funds for “living expenses” from the ex Spice Girl.But Mel, also 41, has turned down his request, instead accused him of stealing £800,000 from her – a claim Belafonte denies.
