Mel C’s mystery man ‘revealed’ as hunky Australian model after the pop star went public with her new romance at Glastonbury Festival
Mel C made her acquaintance with her new mystery man on Saturday as the pair walked hand-in-hand around Glastonbury Festival.
The hunk is believed to be an Australian model named Chris Dingwall, a source has revealed to Ny Breaking Australia.
The 185cm tall handsome man from Sydney, NSW, is signed to Ford Models and Chadwick and travels the world for glamorous photo shoots.
An online biography of the model, believed to be in her 40s, explains that Chris has “over twenty years of print, commercial and film work with some of the world’s top brands.”
“Chris has been one of the most sought-after male models in the US, Europe, Asia and Australia for over ten years,” he continues.
Chris is also an actor, writer and director for film and television and has worked on a handful of short films, including the St Kilda Film Festival entry Oasis, in which he also starred.
Chris also directed two episodes of the Australian miniseries Brock, about racing legend Peter Brock, and has a number of upcoming film productions in post-production.
Tellingly, his Instagram Stories post on Saturday indicated that he visited Babington House Country Estate in Soho House, a popular spot for celebrities visiting the nearby Glastonbury Festival. Earlier that day, Mel was spotted there with her mystery man.

Ny Breaking Australia has contacted Chris Dingwall for comment.
The 50-year-old Spice Girl, who was photographed strolling with her male friend earlier this month, went public with her romance at the festival.
Mel looked cool in an open beige blouse which she paired with matching shorts.
The singer showed off her toned stomach in a khaki bralette under the number and wore comfortable white sneakers with it.
To really get into the festival spirit, Sporty Spice wore a cool black crossbody bag and white framed sunglasses.

Tellingly, his Instagram Stories post on Saturday indicated he was visiting Babington House Country Estate, Soho House, a popular spot for celebrities attending the nearby Glastonbury Festival, where Mel was spotted with her mystery man earlier that same day.
Her handsome companion, meanwhile, had opted for a plain black T-shirt, tucked into matching linen trousers.
He added a pop of color to the outfit by wearing pink trainers and sported stylish dark sunglasses.
The couple looked happier than ever as they held hands and shared drinks while walking around the iconic Worthy Farm.
MailOnline contacted Mel C’s representatives at the time for comment.
Mel was spotted with the mystery man while out and about in London earlier this month.

The hitmaker put on a cozy performance with her male companion, who at one point put his arm around her during the dog walk.
They stopped briefly to get a takeaway coffee and continued their outing with Mel’s dog.
The duo appeared in high spirits as they laughed and chatted while sipping their coffee.
Mel, who had an affair with Robbie Williams around 1997, has largely kept her love life out of the spotlight, but previously spoke about how she was banned from dating in the early days of the Spice Girls – while her bandmates were free to pursue romances .
“Looking back, I noticed it was one rule for one and another for the others, right?” she said.
“I think when you’re vulnerable, people say, ‘I don’t think it’s good for you.’

Mel said the rule for the other women was, ‘She’s fine, she can have a boyfriend, she can deal with a boyfriend, she’s strong enough, but you’re not.’
“It makes you doubt yourself when you’re already vulnerable,” Mel adds.
Mel revealed she joined dating app Hinge after splitting from her producer ex-boyfriend Joe Marshall in 2022.
The star skipped celebrity dating apps like Raya and instead signed up with the more modest Hinge.
Mel previously dated Joe for seven years, but the former couple split in the summer of 2022.
Mel revealed on the podcast Not My Bagg with Joe & George Baggs that although she has joined, she hasn’t had much luck.
She told the hosts, “What’s up with Hinge? I’m single, and I’m kind of looking around, it’s small choices.
‘There seem to be a lot of pretty girls, but all the pretty boys are gay.’
Mel started dating Joe in 2015, with the pair even living together in North London.
Following the split, it was claimed that the star was ‘not afraid to be single’ as busy schedules got in the way of her romance.
