The incident, which occurred after the 1996 BRIT Awards, involved a direct and charged comment from Mel C to Beckham.

According to Mel C, the bandmates were leaving the event when she turned to Beckham and said, "Victoria, f--k off." This revelation came during an appearance on The Louis Theroux Podcast.

Mel C recounted going home and waking up the next morning to significant repercussions for her actions.

While the specific trigger for Mel C's outburst was not detailed, the comment clearly caused considerable friction within the group.

Mel C noted that bandmates Mel B and Geri Halliwell were particularly upset, telling her they were "disgusted" by her behavior at the time.
