Danielle Brown sold her story earlier this year claiming that she had not spoken to her sister Mel B for years after a family fall out. It appeared that there was light at the end of the tunnel, when the sisters arranged to meet up recently, however things turned sour when the plans fell through.

Rather than taking it up with Mel privately, Danielle took to her Twitter to write: “Can’t believe my sister has stood me up after 3 yrs of waiting for that call. I am devastated and again disappointed beyond belief!!!!!!”

Surprisingly, Mel tried to take the high road and replied: “Hey I think best we text not tweet family matters are personal, you have my email and both mobiles they are all on, see you la,” to which Danielle replied: “I have to tweet u as its all about public image 4 u. 4 me it was always [sic] about family, that’s a wrap, Love you.”

Things haven’t always been so sour between the two sisters though, who were once inseparable especially in Mel’s Spice Girl days. But according to Danielle, family dramas tore the sisters apart.

The pair’s Twitter row turned nasty when Mel seemingly accused Danielle of asking her for money to which Danielle furiously denied these claims. However, Mel said that she did not accuse Danielle of asking for money and claimed that she had been hacked.

Mel’s younger actress singer refused to believe this explanation and ended the row, writing: "hahahahaha what a convenient HACKER I’ve cried a river ……”

Mel B is currently expecting her first baby with husband Stephen, both of whom have children with previous partners.
