Melanie Brown a.k.a. Mel B was recently granted her request for a temporary restraining order against her husband Stephen Belafonte, 41. The former "X Factor" judge recently made a horrible confession about her attempt at suicide to escape the inhuman treatment of her husband of 10 years.

According to Radar Online, the mother of three recalled that in December 2014, her husband abused her and played "mind games" with her until she can no longer stand it. To end it all, she took a bottle of painkiller aspirin to end her life out of extreme emotional and physical exhaustion.

However, she came to her senses and when she wanted to call for help, her husband hindered her from getting help. She threw her in the bedroom bathroom without a phone, locked the door and told her to die. But when she opened the lock, her husband would push the door back. She tried several times to no avail.

A neighbor came and called for an ambulance, but her husband refused her help. On the next day, their driver noticed her injuries and brought her to the hospital.

Not contented with his abuses, when he learned that the abuse has reached the press, he told his wife to publicize that she committed a failed suicide. When she refused, he threatened to tell the "X Factor" people that she attempted to kill herself so that she will lose her job.

She got security to keep her husband away from her premises. On April 3, her restraining order was granted. She has another court schedule on April 24. A month ago, she filed for divorce from her husband.

Mirror reported that Simon Cowell helped Mel B to talk to a divorce lawyer. The whole "X Factor" team was worried for her because aside from beating and abusing her, Belafonte controls her finances. She had bruises during the 2014 finale of the reality show.

In the court records she filed, the "Spice Girl" member alleged that her husband even forced her to participate in threesomes and got their nanny pregnant. He beat her up after she performed with Usher in extreme jealousy. He hit her that caused a slit on her lip.

Belafonte denied all the claims of his ex-wife and said that somebody was behind all the allegations. He added that people behind his ex-wife want to make him look bad.

Mel B and Belafonte will have many days in court that will start on April 24. Right now, she is protected by the court after being granted an order for her husband not to come near his family.
