With rumours swirling of a 30th anniversary Spice Girls tour, sources say Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell aren’t seeing eye-to-eye
Fans of the Spice Girlshave been desperate for a full reunion for years – with the five stars not being together on stage since 2012 at the London Olympics. But as their 30th anniversary approaches next year, rumours have been rife that Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Mel Brown and Mel Chisholm could come together for a tour.
Mum-of-four Victoria, 49, was absent from the Spice Girls Reunion tour in 2019, with reports saying she was busy focusing on her business ventures instead. However, insiders now tell Closer that discussions are being had between the girls, but a spanner has been thrown in the works as Victoria and Geri – who has been married to F1 millionaire Christian Horner, 49, since 2015 – are butting heads.

But in recent years, Geri, 51 – who was known as “Ginger Spice” and was iconic for her bright red hair and Union Jack dress – has immersed herself in upper class society after meeting and marrying Christian, who has a net worth of £53 million.
Geri – who shares daughter Bluebell, 17, from a previous relationship, and son Montague, six, with Christian – splits her time between her two homes – asprawling Hertfordshire estate and an idyllic farm in Oxfordshire with swimming pools and an orangerie.
And it seems she’s swapped her Union Jack dress for a more refined style, as in recent years she’s almost always seen wearing white. Fans have also commented on how Geri – who grew up in Watford – now speaks with a different accent, with one writing, “Is Geri putting on a fake posh voice?” after the star shared a video to her social media.
A DIFFERENT LIFE
