'We are wanting to do something and we are but I can't really tell you because I'll get kicked out of the WhatsApp group again so I have to be really careful,' she said.
'I get kicked out of the group because I get so excited whenever I talk about Spice Girls and the more I say something's going to happen, I will it that much that it does happen like the Olympics and the 2019 tour.'
Of Mel and Rory's wedding plans, Mel confirmed that the Spice Girls would be part of her big day.
'I have got a few hidden surprises from my girls that's going to happen on the day, so yes, they are involved,' she said.
Jonathan then asked if Victoria Beckham might potentially design her wedding dress to which Mel replied: 'Yeah but hopefully I won't have to pay Victoria because she's expensive but it's very good stuff.'
Mel gushed about her fiance, telling the chat show host: 'He is so lovely and he's made me believe that there are good people out there, he's made me believe in love again and I just feel so safe with him, he's adorable.'
Asked how they met, Mel explained: 'He's a family friend so I already had that built in trust but he's a hairdresser and when I came back to Leeds my hair was fried so he would come over and give me hair treatments.
'He nurtured my curls back to Scary Spice vibes which is my natural hair and then he nurtured me back into trusting somebody again because I'd been in a ten-year abusive marriage.'

Opening up about her previous relationship, which led her to writing a book titled Brutally Honest, Mel said the book enabled her to: 'Be more honest and open, hence I got my MBE for all the work that I do with Women's Aid.'
Mel's MBE also grants her special access to St Paul's Cathedral for her wedding.
'Now that you're engaged, is that the plan, will you get married in St Pauls?' Jonathan asked, to which Mel replied: 'Yes. It's a whole process you have to go through because I've been married and divorced twice before so you get assessed and have to explain why you want to get married in that church.'
It comes after Mel B reignited hopes of a surprise Spice Girls 30th anniversary reunion at Glastonbury on Monday.
The line-up for Glastonbury 2024 was unveiled last week, with Dua Lipa, Sza and Coldplay set to take to the Pyramid stage.

And when US country music star Shania bagged the iconic Sunday Legends slot, Spice Girls fans thought that meant the possibility of a surprise appearance to celebrate 30 years of the girl band had been ruled out.
But speaking on Hits Radio Breakfast Show, Mel teased that there might be hope yet for Spice fans.
'You don't know that we're not doing Glastonbury,' Mel, 48, coyly explained.
