They’ve been estranged for three years after falling out over Mel B’s husband Stephen Belafonte.

But it appears there is no chance of the icy relationship between the former Spice Girl and her younger sister Danielle Brown thawing any time soon.

Mother-of-two Danielle, 30, claims she had arranged to meet up with Melanie during her brief trip to London last week, but she was ‘stood up’.

Although California-based Melanie – who is pregnant with her third child – claimed someone had hacked into her Twitter, Danielle wasn’t convinced.

She tells the new issue of Star magazine: ‘I’ve not seen her for three years. I was stood up. It’s horrible.

‘I’m appalled by her…it’s so raw.’

Danielle, who recently opened a cafe called The Shed in south west London, has denied claims she sold stories on her famous sibling.

She told themagazine: ‘I never would sell a story or get paid to talk about her. I don’t need to make a drama about my sister to get publicity.’

Last week, the two sisters became embroiled in a row on Twitter when Danielle claimed she had been stood up during Mel’s brief trip to London.

However, Mel claimed someone had hacked into her Twitter account and falsely made arrangements with her sibling.

Danielle wrote: ‘Can’t believe my sister has stood me up after three years of waiting for that call. I am devastated and again disappointed beyond belief !!!!!

‘I have to tweet you as its all about public image for you. For me its was always about family, that’s a wrap, Love you x

‘MONEY????? You have never give me a penny and I would never take a penny off you and I have never sold a story on you!! LOVE YOU.

‘No ha I’m crying. Funny how you can’t reply to texts or calls but can reply to tweets. You need a REALITY check not a reality show.’

Despite their apparent estrangement, both women declared their love for each other.

In response, Mel B Tweeted: ‘OMG just been hacked, changing my account someone is messing with me and my family, my sister has never asked me for money. I love her to bits. I would never have a twitter argument. This is crazy I am correcting my account right now, this is freaking me out!! Password changed!! What a sick person!!’

But it appears Danielle wasn’t convinced, Tweeting: ‘Hahahahaha what a convenient HACKER I’ve cried a river.’
