Watch the bump! Emma Bunton puts a protective hand on her belly as she arrives at the Global Radio Studioes in London


As an ex-Spice Girl and a judge on one of ITV's most popular TV shows, Emma Bunton is used to paparazzi attention.

But as the pregnant singer arrived at the London headquarters of Heart FM today, she put a protective hand on her burgeoning belly.

In the seventh month of her pregnancy, the 35-year-old looked glowing as she proudly showed off her bump in a fitted ruched dress and blazer.


The artist formerly known as Baby Spice was joining fellow Heart FM DJs at the radio station's annual fundraising day for their 'Have A Heart' campaign.

Celebrity guests such as X Factor contestants Matt Cardle, One Direction and Katie Waissel, actor Stephen Merchant and pop star Sophie Ellis Bextor joined the station's popular DJs for on-air appeals.

After appealing to listeners to donate to the campaign, the celebrities then manned the phones to take some pledges.

Writing on her Twitter at the end of the day, Bunton said: 'A day at Heart raising money for Have A Heart. Thanks you so much to everyone who has helped and supported today!'

Bunton has hosted a pre-recorded Saturday evening drivetime show for Heart FM since June 2009.

After originally announcing her pregnancy in November, the Dancing On Ice judge revealed last month she was expecting another boy.

In January, the ex-pop star and long-term love Jade Jones revealed they were engaged after 11 years together.

The couple are also parents to son Beau Lee Jones, three.

Meanwhile, Bunton has laughed off reports she and her former bandmates were feuding over whether or not to release an album of unheard Spice Girls songs.

A source claimed Melanie Brown and Melanie Chisholm wanted to release the album, while Bunton, Geri Halliwell and Victoria Beckham were against the idea.

However, both Bunton and Chisholm denied the reports on their Twitter pages.

Bunton wrote: 'The stories in the papers yesterday are absolute rubbish and I know our Spice fans don't believe a word of it!!!.'

Chisholm said: 'Stories in UK papers today about a Spice Girls album are complete nonsense. Bore off!!

'I am very proud to be a Spice Girl and always will be. It's the false stories which are annoying.'
