“I went through a horrendous abusive marriage which nearly killed me,” she told The Sun last year. “I got out of it and ever since I’ve tried to help other women — and men — who have been through or are going through abuse in whatever shape or form.”

Speaking about receiving the MBE honors, Mel B shared: “And there was this letter saying the Prime Minister had spoken to the Queen about giving me an MBE.

“I thought about all the women I’ve met over the past few years who have been through terrible situations, women who have died, women who are still suffering. This, for me, was all about them. It still is.”

Speaking about her chat with Prince William, the star said: “He commended me on all my work that I’ve been doing, and he goes, ‘I’m so sorry you went through such a horrible time’.
