Washington, October 31 : Former Spice Girl Emma Bunton has said that her two-year-old son Beau is in love with her band mate Melanie Brown’s nine-month-old daughter Scarlet.

The pop stars noticed the friendship between the toddlers grow, as they frequently spent time together.

"I had dim sum at Mel C''s with Mel B this week. While us girls had a chat, Beau spent the time hugging Mel C''s little girl Scarlet. He absolutely loves her!" Contactmusic quoted Button as saying.

Melanie also spoke about her daughter with partner Thomas Starr.

She said: "I''m constantly astounded by her. I could stare at her for hours. She fascinates me. I find it incredible to think that she''s part of me and Tom. It''s impossible to explain how life-changing motherhood is.

"Looking after a baby is the hardest job in the world. Doing the day job is a bit of a rest! I thought that I''d worked hard before - I lived on so little sleep in the Spice Girls - but nothing could have prepared me for being a new mum. It totally wiped me out.

"It was overwhelming at times. When the baby won''t sleep and it''s 4am and you''re beyond exhausted, it can be lonely.

"Sometimes you feel like the worst mum in the world because you think that everyone else is doing better. I can see how easy it would be to flip into post-natal depression."
