Mel B’s daughter Phoenix Chi set to become a TV star after landing primetime ITV gig

MEL B’s daughter Phoenix Chi is hoping her telly career takes flight on The Games.

The budding star will be more Sporty Spice than Scary Spice on the flagship ITV show, filming now.

An insider said: “Mel is fully behind Phoenix and can’t wait to see her step into the limelight in her own right.

“She has done some small TV stuff before but this is her first major show and will see her really come into her own.

“Phoenix is tough, like Mel, and is really looking forward to pushing herself.”

She is in good company. Former Towie favourite Mark Wright and Corrie actor Colson Smith are also on board for the Olympics-style sporting contest.

And I’m told it won’t be long before Chrstine McGuinness, who I revealed was in advanced talks with ITV, is also signed up.

Bring it on.
