Ex-Spice Girl Mel B appeared on a tear-jerking Celebrity Gogglebox tonight (October 28) as she paid tribute to her “big, strong, beautiful” dad who died of cancer. She remembered her father Martin Brown, who died five years ago, for a special episode of the show which aired as part of Channel 4 and Cancer Research UK’s Stand Up To Cancer campaign.
Mel said: “Cancer touches so many people’s lives. My big, strong, beautiful dad was just 63 when he died after a long battle with multiple myeloma cancer.
“I miss him every single day. He loved to watch telly and he loved to laugh, so I’m doing this for him and for everyone else out there who has lost someone to cancer.”
