Geri Horner 'cancels her star-studded 50th birthday bash after Queen's death'

Geri Horner has reportedly cancelled her 50th birthday bash following the Queen’s death.

The Spice Girl, who was formerly known as Geri Halliwell, was set to throw a lavish party at the sprawling Oxfordshire mansion she shares with Formula One boss husband Christian this weekend.

Her milestone birthday was set to be a full Spice Girl reunion with Mel C, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Victoria Beckham in attendance.

But the royal fan – who filmed a sweet message for the monarch during her Platinum Jubilee - has pulled the plug on the celebrations, according to the Daily Mail.

The party was due to fall just before the Queen’s funeral which will be held on Monday, September 19.

The Mirror has reached out to Geri’s reps for comment.

If Geri’s big bash had gone ahead, it would also have marked the first time the Spice Girls had performed as a five piece – albeit privately – since the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics.

Earlier this year it was revealed the party would be a “seated, black tie do” with the theme ‘Timeless Elegance’.

“Loads of Geri and her husband Christian’s celeb pals will be there and, excitingly, Geri is inviting all the Spice Girls - including Victoria,” a source told The Sun at the time.

"The girls can't wait to reunite and the plan is for all five of them to sing Happy Birthday and get up on stage to join Geri for a number - possibly Wannabe.”

The Spice Girls last performed in 2019 - without Victoria - when the Girls embarked on a sell-out 13-date tour of the UK and Ireland.

To this day they remain the most successful girl band of all time and have sold over 85 million records around the globe.

Geri – who actually turned 50 last month on August 6 – instead opted for a low key celebration.

Marking the occasion on Instagram, the singer posed in a white swimsuit and beach hat on a sun-soaked holiday.

She also shared a video montage of herself through the years with her 1.2 million followers.

“I get to be 50! I’m so grateful to all the wonderful people and experiences I’ve had in my life. Thank you. I love you. The best is yet to come. Geri x," she wrote.

Fans and some of her Spice Girl pals were quick to wish her a happy 50th.

Mel C , 48, wrote: "Happy Birthday Ginge! Love you with all of my heart my darling Spice sister xxxxxxxxx."
