Mel C finding it tough to be single mother

Mel C is finding life as a single mother "difficult". The 39-year-old singer-songwriter has been raising four-year-old daughter Scarlet alone since she split from Thomas Starr last year, and says she is concerned about the effects her work have had on her role as a parent. She described motherhood as difficult and a work in progress Mel - real name Melanie Chisholm - is starring in the stage version of rock musical 'Jesus Christ Superstar' and said juggling her dedication to her lead role of Mary Magdalene with Scalet's needs takes its toll.
