Mel B is rumoured to have hired top lawyer Gloria Allred to represent her in a her paternity case against former lover Eddie Murphy.

The new mother was recently spotted lunching at LA restaurant Mr Chow with the celebrity lawyer.

Allred has previously worked on the Scott Peterson murder trial and was involved in the discrimination case against Seinfeld actor Michael Richards.

The Spice Girl dated Murphy for a period in 2006, becoming pregnant shortly after their split. In June, results of a DNA test proved the Beverly Hills Cop star was the father of her daughter Angel.
