Mel B didn’t hold back during a fiery appearance on The Weakest Link, taking several jabs at Eamonn Holmes. Both celebrities were contestants on the celebrity edition of the popular BBC general knowledge game show.
In one round, both Eamonn and Mel B each answered a question incorrectly, earning them the title of ‘Weakest Link’. According to the rules of the BBC One game, the players had to decide who they wanted to eliminate.
Mel voted to boot out the former This Morning presenter, along with radio personality Arielle Free and Morning Live chef Briony May Williams. Meanwhile, TV host Eamonn chose his rival alongside Rob Bent and ex-Coronation Street actress Shobna Gulati.
