Former Spice Girl Mel B gave birth to her third child earlier this month, daughter Madison, and says, “It feels like I’ve finally done it right.”

The “X Factor Australia” judge has a 12-year-old daughter, Phoenix, from her previous marriage to Dutch dancer Jimmy Gulzar, and a 4-year-old daughter, Angel Irish, with actor Eddie Murphy.

“I had a rocky marriage with Phoenix’s dad. The relationship with Angel’s dad was over halfway through the pregnancy, and I had to suck it up and get on with it,” she told “Hello” Magazine. “This time I’ve done it with my partner — someone to get excited by every scan — and it feels like I’ve finally done it right.”

Mel told the mag that she laughed through labor with Madison.

“Five big chuckles and she was out,” she said.

Congrats to Mel and Stephen!
