Mel B’s dancer ex-husband Jimmy Gulzar sports a very different look these days
The pair first met during her Spiceworld tour in 1998
MEL B's dancer ex-husband Jimmy Gulzar was spotted out and about in Los Angeles and sports a very different look to the time he was with the Spice Girl.
The 49-year-old was married to Mel B for two years in the late 90s and split in 2000.
He had met her during the Spiceworld tour in 1998 as the group's backing dancer and later had a daughter together; Phoenix.
The Dutch-born dancer moved away from the showbiz world after the pair broke up in 2000.
Jimmy was spotted wearing a sleeveless black top showing off his tatted muscly arms and jeans and had a baseball cap tucked into his belt.
The America's Got Talent judge, now 41, later married director and producer Stephen Belafonte in 2007.
During the summer enjoyed a holiday in Ibiza together as the Spice Girl showed off her fit, athletic bod.
She made the most of her time off from appearing on various talent shows by doing a number of extensive work out routines.
Mel posted a message to her Instagram revealing she’s been doing hour long stints on the running machine in order to lose weight.
She said: “Yep. I’m even shocked at my cardio commitment right now an hr on the running machine fat burning keeping it interesting jamming to my tunes.”
The Spice Girl and partner Stephen were pals before taking their relationship to the next level.
Though it hasn’t been a smooth ride, with rumours of Mel walking out in 2014, fiery rows and Stephen, 40, even forced to deny assaulting the star after she was spotted with what looked like bruises on her face during The X Factor.
In a world exclusive with The Sun an emotional Stephen said: “I love my wife. I’d take a bullet for her.”
He added: “I had nothing to do with hurting my wife. I did not touch Mel. I didn’t hit her. I wasn’t cheating or anything. There was no girl involved.”
