Mel B's father's death helped her to "set her life on the right track".
The former Spice Girl - who is currently in the midst of a bitter divorce battle with her estranged husband Stephen Belafonte - has remembered her late father Martin in an emotional Instagram post and thanked him for giving her the "clarity" to move forward.
She wrote on Instagram: "The pain of loosing my daddy is beyond anyone could ever understand,but in the mist of all my raw emotions and pain of his passing he gave me the clarity and strength to set my life on the right track and I'm sooo thankful of this awakening,from march 4th when he died I now live in my truth to correct with no shame the life every girl/daddy's girl should live,and that's a life with no fear or disrespect,but a life with ONLY love and respect and honesty.
"Dad I love you but I would give anything just to talk you one last time just so you no how much I truly love you and for you to no I'm now living THAT life and no matter what anyone says or anyone does I will ALWAYS and forever only live this way so I hope you forgive me for my mistakes and trust in me that my eyes are now wide open and I want to do you proud from here on in!!#betterlatethannever #ripdaddy #imissyoueverysingleday #thepainisreal (sic)"
It comes after Mel previously expressed her devastation at her father's passing back in March and said she only wishes she had had more time with him.
Alongside a picture of her with her late father, she wrote: "I just wanted one last hug and for you to no how much I really love you #ripdad #daddysgirl #mostimportantmaninmylife #inoyourwithmestill (sic)"
