The songstress began dating Joe in December 2015, and after their romance went from strength-to-strength she also made him her manager. 

Her appearance comes a year since the Spiceworld 2019 tour wrapped at Wembley, rounding off the band’s incredible UK reunion tour.

Although the band – which consists of Emma Bunton, Geri Horner, Mel B (and Victoria Beckham, who did not tour with the group last year) – have discussed future plans, Mel C is said to also be eyeing up a BBC radio show.

Sources have claimed Sporty Spice was approached by the broadcaster after impressing bosses with her DJ set on Scott Mills and Chris Stark’s Radio 1 show last month.

An insider said: ‘Mel had a Zoom meeting with one of the BBC’s top brass shortly after her gig on Scott’s show because they saw so much potential in her.’

The musician is thought to be keen on following in the footsteps of Baby Spice Emma, who hosted Heart Breakfast from 2013 until 2018 with Jamie Theakston. 

The source added to The Sun: ‘She not only has an incredible background in the industry, she’s got a wealth of music knowledge which bosses think the audience would lap up.

‘She has done the occasional presenting job for Radio 2 in the past but they are looking at her getting a permanent slot. It’s early stages but Mel has said she’d be open to offers and would love to see if she could get on board.’

They also claimed future listeners could even expect appearances from Emma, Mel B, Geri and Victoria on the show. 

The BBC is surely looking to fill up a newly-vacant spot after presenter Maya Jama ‘made the difficult decision not to continue her contract’.

BBC declined to comment when approached by MailOnline. MailOnline has contacted representatives for Mel.

The report came after the brunette beauty revealed the Spice Girls still have a group chat after reuniting – sans Victoria – for an acclaimed reunion tour in Summer 2019.

Speaking to Scott and Chris, Mel said: ‘We do have a message group, we did have a WhatsApp group last year but Geri kept calling it “what sip”, which kind of put us off so we went back to an iMessage.’  

The songstress also discussed the origins of the iconic band’s name, revealing they were called something quirky before settling on Spice Girls.  

She said: ‘Do you know what we were called before, we were called TOUCH, thank goodness we changed it. 

‘I think it was a brainchild of Geri’s to be spice, because we had our individuality, we were all really different, spicing up things with a bit of variety and there was a rapper in America called Spice, so that’s why we added the Girls and became the Spice Girls.’
