A heartbroken Mel B has been reduced to tears after being forced to take DNA from her 10-day-old baby girl, Fortuna Daphne Bay, to prove he is the father.
A pal of the former Scary Spice tells us: "She is distraught that her baby has been subjected to the DNA-testing procedure. "She can't believe that it's come to this and that Eddie hasn't just admitted that the child is his. "This last week should have been an incredible time for Mel, but it's been emotionally overwhelming and she's been constantly in tears. "The DNA test was the last straw and she's gearing up to fight back. She's a strong-willed woman and will fight to the end."
Leeds-born Mel, 31, has listed Eddie as the father on the birth certificate. We also hear that savvy Mel has already done a £250,000 deal with a glossy magazine to show off her new baby - and to prove to the world that 46-year-old Eddie is the father. She has also been telling friends Fortuna looks just like him and has the "same eyes". One of them tells us: "They look very much alike and she wants to let everyone know that Eddie has to take his responsibilities as a father seriously. "
This is all making Eddie Murphy look like a big ASS, don't you think?
