Victoria Beckham has reached out to Geri Halliwell-Horner on her 53rd birthday as rumours surrounding the Spice Girls’ fractured friendship continue to swirl
Victoria Beckham has wished Geri Halliwell-Horner many happy returns of the day amid rumours of a feud
Victoria Beckham has wished Geri Halliwell-Horner many happy returns of the day amid rumours of a feud between the Spice Girls. The musicians formerly known as Posh and Ginger Spice raised eyebrows when they swerved Melanie Brown MBE’s wedding last month after reports that things between Ginger and Scary were still strained.
Mel B is yet to comment on Geri’s 53rd birthday today, however, Victoria did post a snap of herself and the mum-of-two, alongside Emma Bunton on Instagram. She captioned the photo: “Happy Birthday @gerihalliwellhorner!! Kisses @emmabunton xx.” It comes as Emma posted her own tribute to Geri earlier today as she wished her “beautiful friend” a happy birthday.

Rumours surrounding the Spice Girls’ fractured friendship continue to swirl
Geri was said to be offended by Mel B after the outspoken singer claimed the pair slept together while the Spice Girls were still topping the charts. And when the Look At Me star swerved Scary’s nuptials in July, fans were convinced things were still awkward between the pair.
While Emma attended Mel’s wedding in London last month, neither Geri, Victoria or Mel C showed their face. Victoria and Mel C sent their apologies, saying they had a prior engagement, which they couldn’t get out of. However, Geri stayed silent.
But, a source told the Mirror that there was no feud between the Friendship Never Ends stars, adding that Geri, Mel C and Victoria simply had other commitments. “There’s no snub, the girls are all on friendly terms with one another, but it’s no secret that Geri is busy with Christian at Formula One and Victoria is extremely busy with her fashion brand,” they said.
It’s believed that Victoria, who is now firmly focused on her fashion brand had work commitments in another country. Meanwhile, Mel C, known as Sporty Spice, was on tour and performing in Rødovre, Denmark at the time.
It was reported that Geri would not be attending the wedding due to a broken relationship with Mel B, but this isn’t the case, according to our source.
Instead, Ginger Spice was supporting her F1 husband, Christian Horner, at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone – days before he got sacked.
Paying tribute to his wife today, the former Red Bull boss, 51, shared a beaming snap of Geri as she posed proudly with her birthday cake.
Christian, who shares son Monty, seven, with his wife, captioned the post: “Happy birthday to my amazing wife” before tagging her in the post.
It was hoped last weekend that the Spice Girls would reunite for Mel’s second ‘spiritual’ wedding in Morocco – but only Emma attended.
However, Mel looked like she had a glorious time with hairdresser, Rory McPhee, and stunned in snaps with her new husband, in which she shone in a resplendent red beaded frock.
