Mel B flashes a first look at her engagement ring as she joins fiancé Rory McPhee on a walk

Mel B showed off her engagement ring for the first time as she enjoyed a dog walk with her new fiancé on Wednesday.

The singer, 47, seemed in good spirits as she joined her hairdresser beau Rory McPhee for a quiet getaway in Leeds.

Mel – who recently made her romantic proposal – opted for a casual ensemble but flashed a dazzling gold and diamond engagement ring reportedly worth £100,000.

The Say You’ll Be There hitmaker wrapped up against the cold in a camouflage quilted jacket with pink trim and hood lining.

She paired the piece with skinny jeans and chunky gray lace-up boots and finished the look with oversized shades.

At her side was Rory, who was on par with his fiancée in dress, as he also donned a camouflage print jacket and boots.

The outing comes after Mel lifts the lid on the details of her romantic engagement to her boyfriend of three years.

Mel appeared on Celebrity Gogglebox on Friday night with her boyfriend, Ruby Wax, for a Stand Up 2 Cancer special edition of the show, where she talked about the moment he got down on one knee.

It was reported this week that Leeds-born hairdresser Mel proposed to at the luxury country hotel Cliveden House in Berkshire wearing a £100,000 diamond ring.

During the show, Ruby asked, “You told me you were recently engaged, what did he say?”

Mel replied, “He said, ‘I love you, you’re my best friend and I want to spend the rest of my life with you,’ there were rose petals everywhere, a fireplace, it was romantic.”

According to The Sun, Mel was ‘overwhelmed’ when Leeds-born hairdresser Rory got on one knee and burst into tears with joy.

The publication reports that he then held up a £100,000 ring consisting of a pear-shaped champagne-colored diamond set on a rose gold band.

An insider told the outlet that Mel immediately said ‘yes’, adding: “But it was incredibly emotional because after everything she’s been through, it was a really big moment for her.”

Another source told how Mel is ‘so happy’ with the engagement, adding: ‘It has taken a huge amount for a man to get her to trust him and believe in love again.

“He’s the absolute opposite of so many of the guys she’s had relationships with,” he explains how he showed her that men “can be caring, trustworthy, and trustworthy.

“He really took the time to understand what she’s been through. He’s madly in love with her.’

The insider described Mel’s fiancé as “normal, down-to-earth guy, with good morals” and insisted he’s not interested in fame.

They also revealed that the couple have known each other for many years with both of them from Leeds and Rory being best friends with Mel’s cousin, Christian Cooke.

The publication reports that Mel’s eldest daughter Phoenix, 23, was the first person she told about the engagement, with her wider friends and family being “over the moon”, while all of the singer’s fellow Spice Girls have already met” and like’ her future husband.

Mel B’s representatives declined to comment when MailOnline contacted them.

The couple has been dating since 2018 when they met through friends in LA, including famed makeup artist Renee Camilleri.

However, the following year, their relationship turned more serious when Mel returned to the UK for the Spice Girls reunion tour.

Mel shares eldest daughter Pheonix with Dutch dancer Jimmy Gulzar. Mel met Jimmy in 1998 when he was hired as a dancer for a Spice Girls world tour.

They became engaged in May 1998, she became pregnant a month later and they married in Little Marlow, Buckinghamshire that same year in September. Their divorce was finalized in 2000.

Scary Spice is also mother to middle daughter Angel Iris Murphy Brown, 15, of whom she co-parents Hollywood actor Eddie Murphy.

The former couple broke up in December 2006 and Mel gave birth to Angel in April 2007. On June 22, 2007, a court-ordered DNA test confirmed that Eddie Murphy was the child’s father.

Mel also shares her youngest daughter Madison Brown Belafonte, 11, with her second husband Stephen Belafonte.

The Spice Girl split from Stephen in 2017, claiming he emotionally and physically abused her during their 10-year marriage – something he has always vehemently denied.

In January, Mel was awarded an MBE for her work at Women’s Aid, a domestic violence charity, helping other people who suffered from abusive relationships.

She was named in the New Year Honors for services to charities and vulnerable women, and she stated, ‘This, for me, was all about them’.
