Mel B's English mother Andrea Brown has agreed to move from Leeds to Los Angeles to help support her through legal battles against her second husband Stephen Belafonte and ex-nanny Lorraine Gilles.

The platinum-blonde sales manager and property developer tweeted on Wednesday: 'Start spreading the news my visa approved lookout spongebob Browns r back in town!'

It came a month after Brown (born Dixon) revealed she overstayed her previous 90-day ESTA by just one day and the American embassy wouldn't let her fly back to the States.

Andrea is no doubt eager to reunite with the 42-year-old artist formerly known as Scary Spice and her three daughters from three different men - Madison, nearly 6; Phoenix, 18; and Angel, 10.

'4 the 1st time in almost 10yrs I can go 2 bed knowing my daughter and the kids r safe no more abuse 4 any of us,' the grandmother tweeted back on April 12.

The Chocolate City actress filed for divorce from the 42-year-old producer on March 20, listing their official separation date as December 28.

According to TMZ, Mel is under great financial strain paying the admitted domestic abuser $40K a month in court-ordered spousal support as well as $140K for his legal fees.

Unemployed Belafonte's last producing credit (not involving his estranged wife) was Werner Herzog's Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans way back in 2009.

Brown has allegedly accused Stephen of regular beatings, paying for Lorraine's abortion after a three-way, dropping $21k on a tattoo, and showing staff Isis beheading videos.

The warring biracial couple - battling for custody over little Madison - originally met on the 2007 set of Talk and they were married for nearly a decade after eloping in Las Vegas.
