Spice Girls' Melanie C plans to have a baby soon. This thought was revealed to the press recently after the all-girls band finished their world tour. Mel C said the inspiration to have a baby came to her mind after spending time with her fellow band mates and their children on the tour.

The singer felt that watching her friends and their children made her believe that she could be a good mother. "Being backstage at the shows with the girls and all the kids made me think, Yeah I could be a good mum," she said.

She also praised her friends, saying "I used to say giving them (the children) back was the best bit, but seriously all the girls are great mums ... and they have given me the confidence to have a go."

Mel C is the only member of Spice Girls who hasn't had children yet. Victoria Adams is mother of three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz; Melanie Brown has two daughters Phoenix Chi and Angel Iris; Geri Halliwell is mother to Bluebell Madonna and Emma Bunton is a mom to Beau.

As for Melanie C, she is currently dating her long-term love Tom Starr, a property developer. According to reports they have been dating since 2002 and currently shared a 700,000 pound sterling country home at Catbrook, Monmouthshire.
