The couple's relationship came under scrutiny last Christmas, after Mel was forced to miss an episode of The X Factor due to being hospitalized, shortly before the show's finale.
And when she did make her return on December 14, fans on Twitter said they thought the singer appeared bruised and scratched, noting that she wasn't wearing her wedding ring either.
The couple swiftly became embroiled in domestic violence claims, which they vehemently denied.
It was alleged that the TV judge had left Stephen before she was rushed to hospital - which caused her to miss the first live show on December 13, during the ITV singing competition's final weekend.

However, she later revealed in a video posted online that all is well in her marriage following much speculation - and that she and husband Stephen are 'madly in love.'
Now the couple are back in Los Angeles with her 16-year-old daughter Phoenix Chi (from first husband Dutch dancer Jimmy Gulzar), seven-year-old Angel Iris (fathered by Eddie Murphy) and their three-year-old daughter Madison.
