Spice Girls set to reunite tonight - including Posh - for a very special reason

All five Spice Girls are set to reunite tonight for the first time in years – and a performance is even on the cards.

Mel B, Mel C, Emma Bunton, Geri Horner – and even Victoria Beckham – will be in the same room together for a very special reason.

Unfortunately it’s not to announce a Spice Girls reunion, as fans hoped.

It is to celebrate Geri’s 50th birthday after she pushed back her celebrations due to the Queen’s death in September.

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

Loads of Geri’s celeb pals will be there and every single Spice Girl is reportedly on the invitation list.

The lavish bash will be held at the sprawling Oxfordshire mansion Geri shares with her Formula One boss husband Christian Horner.

The Spice Girls ‘reunion’ will be the first time the Spice Girls have performed as a five piece – albeit privately – since the closing ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics.

"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,” an insider told The Sun.

The last time the Spice Girls performed together was in 2019 - without Victoria - when they 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.

But any plans for a Spice Girls comeback are said to have been quietly shelved.

There were reportedly plans for future gigs and possibly another movie before lockdown.

An insider told The Sun this was now not the case as Covid had “killed the momentum”.

“It was going brilliant... now it’s done again. There is nothing on the agenda and they are focusing on their own things,” the source added.

All five Spice Girls embarked on solo careers after the band, but most are doing things away from music these days.

Victoria has her fashion empire, while Emma has carved out a career in radio and has a show on Heart FM.

Geri has turned her hand to writing and is now a children’s book author, penning the Ugenia Lavender series.

Mel B appeared on Dancing with the Stars, The Masked Singer and joined the judging panel on America’s Got Talent. She released her memoir Brutally Honest and was awarded an MBE for the work she has done with domestic violence charities.

Just last month Mel, who used to be known as Scary Spice, confirmed she would be getting married for the third time.

Her hairdresser boyfriend Rory McPhee popped the question in October and is said to have ‘restored her faith in men’ following her marriage to Stephen Belafonte, which she claimed was abusive.

It’s only Mel C, who is currently appearing on BBC show Queens for the Night - which sees celebs become drag queens - that is still making music.

The mum-of-one, who was the bestselling solo artist from the Spice Girls and one of the UK’s most successful artists ever, confirmed she has started work on her ninth studio album.
