Scary Spice’s decision to walk away comes after eight months of legal battles costing her more than £500,000 in fees.

A source said: “Mel is giving him a lot less than people think.

“Her lawyers got him locked down to destroy the explicit videos, which he claimed showed her engage in sexual acts under the influence allegedly of drugs and alcohol.

“Should he ever break that deal, he would be on the line for millions.”
