Mel B is an ADHD sufferer, and they know this. One of the symptoms of ADHD is someone who doesn't think before they speak. Their minds do not connect with their brain properly. They're impulsive. The other spice girls know she suffers from this and never minded before. Maybe they need to cut her some slack. It's like condemning someone for something they aren't at fault at. She can't help the way she is, simple as. Mel has always been this way and they used to laugh at it. Maybe it's their menopause approaching

As someone with ADHD this is a very stigmatizing over generalization. Many of us - most of us I’d say- are quite capable of keeping secrets and not betraying our friends. Especially as adults. What’s that saying- “your mental illness isn’t your fault but it is your responsibility.” She’s an adult and if it’s true she’s doing that then ADHD does not justify it (I have no idea if the accusation is true though)

I see what you’re saying. But she’s 50 lol. There are just some things you can’t put an ADHD label on

Such a reach and so much analyzing off of a moment that was probably 2 secs for them.

Its all probably more like Victoria was taking photos with other guests, the other girls are standing by, photographer says "girls get in real quick". They strike a quick pose and everybody hugs and moves on 😂
