Parents: DNA confirms Eddie Murphy is the father of Mel B's baby, according to a statement released by her spokesperson

A spokesperson for the former Spice Girl announnced the results of the test late last week.

Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, the outlook was bright for Mel B, who looked relaxed as she stepped out in a colourful maxi dress to grab lunch with her baby in tow.

A friend of 32-year-old singer said: "The DNA is back and the baby is definitely Murphy's.

Mel B's baby catches some sleep during an outing in LA

"Mel is immensely pleased that the whole saga is over and she is looking forward to moving on with her life with her new baby.' Mel B - the former Scary Spice - gave birth to Angel, her second child, in April in a California hospital and has always said that Murphy was the father.

The pair dated in the summer of 2006 before splitting up.

Murphy then went on a Dutch TV show and said he would not admit he was the father until blood tests had been carried out.

His representatives have refused to comment on the DNA results which were revealed on the same day that news emerged about an impending Spice Girls reunion tour.

Mel B, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Mel Chisholm and Victoria Beckham are expected to announce next week that they are getting back together for a 25- date world tour.
