Mel B was rushed to a hospital in New York after she suffered two broken ribs and a severed right hand.

The 43-year-old Spice Girl ended up spending three hours in surgery and shared a photo of her arm in a purple foam protector. She also shared a video of other Spice Girl group members – except Victoria Beckham – visiting her in the hospital.

Mel B has been on a whirlwind tour promoting her new book Brutally Honest, an autobiography exposing her allegedly abusive marriage to former husband Stephen Belafonte.

She was forced to cancel her latest signing after heading to America but promised to reschedule.

She wrote on Instagram:

Suffering two broken ribs, a severed right hand needing emergency care, to having had to have over a 3 hr surgery to repair the damage hence the purple sling.

I’ve had to unfortunately cancel my book signing today in NY, I apologize to each and everyone of you who bought their tickets to meet me today. I’m absolutely gutted but I can assure you it WILL happen at a later date. I promise.

For now my right hand/arm is all stitched up and I’m trying to keep still to heal my broken ribs, ohhh the pain, but I’m in super safe hands with the care of everyone here at the hospital!!!!! thank you all for understanding, I love you all #accidentshappen #hospital #needtimetoheal.
