A friend of Mel B has told a magazine the ex-Spice Girl would take Eddie Murphy back.

Christa Parker, said to be one of the star's closest friends, also told Closer about her own sexual experiences with the singer.

But, despite being publicly dumped by Murphy, who has denied being the father of her child, Parker said Mel B is still in love with him.

"Mel admitted to me she would always love Eddie," she explained. "Even after the way he has treated her and snubbed his own daughter, I think Mel would still take him back."

Parker also told how Mel B had sexual relationships with her and several other woman before she met Murphy last year.
