Sporty Spice had better watch her crown... These days, it's Scary – better known as Mel B - who is the face of International Fitness Week and boasting the body to die for.

And when you get a look at the 34-year-old's astonishing abs, it's hard to believe the star has had two kids, Phoenix Chi, 10, and Angel Iris, two. Without even a two-pack, let alone six to my name, I pumped her for her secret fitness tips.

'How do I stay in shape? I work out! I'm lucky enough to have a great techno gym in my house and I work out a few times a week. I'll do 20-30 minutes cardio, then free weights or abs,' she reveals, adding that she usually lives in workout clothes.

'I don't love or hate my body, I just make the most of what I've got and enjoy it as much as possible. I don't believe in diets, I believe in eating as healthily as possible, but once a week having what you want - that way you're not constantly depriving yourself.

'I try and stick to salads, vegetables, fish, chicken, high protein and then once a week binge out on what I'm craving. On a Sunday I might have a big roast, or fish and chips, it all depends what I'm craving that week.

'And I wouldn't put cosmetic surgery out of the question. I'm not at that point right now, I'll have to see – it depends how I look in 10 or 15 years!'
