Leeds-born Spice Girls singer Mel B admits using cocaine during time as X Factor judge
Spice Girl Mel B has confessed to taking cocaine during her stint as a judge on The X Factor.
Extracts of her autobiography published in The Sun on Sunday also reveal that she tried to take her own life in December 2014.
The 43-year-old, from the Burley area of Leeds, speaks candidly in the book, entitled Brutally Honest, about some of the darkest times in her life, and admits that she used cocaine as a "quick fix" to help her cope with work and her turbulent marriage to second husband Stephen Belafonte.
