My go-to is Nike Air Max 90s \u2013 I have them in so many colours as I love to coordinate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nMel revealed last year that she played &#8220;boy Bingo&#8221; on a dating app before finding love with her boyfriend Chris Dingwall.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Spice Girl \u2013 full name Melanie Chisholm \u2013 went public with her relationship with Australian model and actor Chris in 2024 and revealed how the pair met on celebrity dating app Raya after her female friends encouraged her to look for romance online.<\/p>\n<p>\nMel \u2013 who has daughter Scarlett, 16, with her former partner Thomas Starr \u2013 told the Life Uncut podcast: &#8220;Nobody knows this but we actually met on Raya &#8230; Yeah, it can work people!<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I don\u2019t know how much I should divulge. I was in a relationship previously and you know sometimes you get to the end of a relationship and first of all, you\u2019re like: &#8216;I never want to meet anyone ever again and that\u2019s it. It\u2019s just me and my girl [Scarlett] and that\u2019s it. It\u2019s us against the world&#8217;, which it still is. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;But then you get to this point and it\u2019s usually on a drunken night out with female friends and it\u2019s like: &#8216;You gotta get back out there! You gotta start dating!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;So that\u2019s when the Raya profile was set up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/mel-gets-around-london-lime-bikes-1435715.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>9 January 2026 Mel C travels around London on Lime bikes.
