Mel B has obtained a restraining order against her
now estranged husband, Stephen Belafonte, and this is based on some
disturbing claims in her court declaration. According to the
41-year-old former Spice Girl, Stephen beat her, got their nanny
pregnant and extorted her to take part in threesomes throughout their
ten year marriage.
The restraining order forces him to stay away from
her and her three children, also ordering him to leave the family home.
Mel,
who filed for divorce from the producer last month, alleges that the
abuse began during the first year of their marriage back in 2007. In
2014, cracks began to emerge when he was accused of physically abusing
Mel after she appeared on The X Factor UK with bruises and scratches on
her face and arms. Stephen then denied all suggestions of abuse and
supposedly patched things up with her.
In her declaration shared by TMZ, Mel B tells a horrific story of abuse.
—
November 2007, the night of her “Dancing with the Stars” finale, as she
was getting ready at home, she says Stephen placed both of his hands
around her neck, began choking her and slammed her down onto the
hardwood floors. She says this was the pattern … when she achieved any
measure of success, he would “beat me down to let me know he was in
charge.”
— July 2012, while she was taping ‘X Factor,’ she was
going to tape a segment with Usher, and Belafonte flew into a jealous
rage, punched her with a closed fist in the face, splitting her lip.
When she asked how she was supposed to work with the injury, he said she
should have thought of that before deciding to “flirt with and f***
Usher.”
— August 2012, the day after performing at the closing
ceremonies for the London Olympics, he punched her with a closed fist
and pushed her down on the carpet. Her skin was burned from being pushed
against the carpet and her face “actually scabbed over the rug burns.”
He then forced her to tweet out she injured herself by running on 7″
Christian Louboutin heels.
— Mel B claims Stephen got their
nanny pregnant. She says he told her he wanted to have the baby and “all
three of us live together.” She says Stephen ultimately demanded the
nanny get an abortion. She also says Stephen paid the nanny in excess of
$300,000 of Mel B’s money “for alleged nanny services.”
— She
also says in 2014, she was overcome with “emotional and physical
exhaustion” and took an entire bottle of Aspirin. She tried calling 999
and he blocked her, throwing her in the bedroom, locking the door and
“telling me to ‘die, bitch!’
— She says Stephen has sex tapes of her and repeatedly threatened to release them to ruin her career.
—
And, she says, he forced her to “participate in sexual intercourse with
him and random women” and he would often secretly record the
encounters. She says when she tried to resist the 3-ways, he’d threaten
to release the sex tapes.
— Mel B says she tried to leave him
many times, but he “threatened me with violence and threatened to
destroy my life in every possible way … destroy my career and take my
kids from me.”
— Mel B says Stephen has a gun at home … a
violation of law since he’s prohibited from carrying firearms as part of
a domestic violence conviction involving another woman. She says the
gun is either a .38 or .357 magnum
360L
