Geri breaks cover at F1 British Grand Prix after snubbing Mel B's wedding
Spice Girl Geri Halliwell has made a public appearance at the F1 British Grand Prix, looking stunning in an all-white ensemble, just one day after missing her former bandmate Mel B's wedding.
The 52-year-old Spice Girl was noticeably absent as Mel tied the knot with fiancé Rory McPhee at St Paul's Cathedral in London on Saturday, surrounded by a host of A-list guests. Geri also chose not to post any well wishes to Mel B on social media, adding further fuel to the fire on their rift.
Her relationship with Mel B has famously been turbulent over the years, with tensions between the pair making it difficult for them to share the same space without conflict.
Geri, who is married to former racing driver Christian Horner, stepped back into the spotlight at the sporting event along with her two children, eight-year-old son, Monty, and 19-year-old daughter, Bluebell.
The race itself wasn't short on drama due to the heavy rainfall, which caused a fair amount of chaos on the track.
Geri continued to snub Mel B online while many other celebrities rushed to send Mel B congratulatory messages on social media, including Heidi Klum, Paloma Faith and Kerry Katona.
Fans hoping for a full Spice Girls reunion were left disappointed, as only Emma Bunton, 49, was seen at the celebration. Baby Spice looked effortlessly chic in a blush pink dress, complemented by a matching hat and sparkling silver heels.
Victoria Beckham, who was noticeably absent from the celebrations, took to Instagram to mark Mel's big day. Sharing a glamorous throwback photo of the pair, she wrote: 'Sending love to you @officialmelb! @rorymcphee is a very lucky man! xx.'
Mel C, who was also unable to attend the wedding, sent her well-wishes on social media. Sharing a joyful photo of the newlyweds, she wrote: 'So so happy for you both and beyond gutted I couldn't be there. Excited to celebrate with you really soon. Yipee!'
The beautiful wedding marks the third marriage for 50-year-old Mel B. She married 37-year-old hairstylist Rory McPhee, following her divorce from Jimmy Gulzar and Stephen Belafonte.
Last year she said of Rory: 'When I went back to England, he would come over and give me hair treatments... and as he was nurturing my curls back, I guess he was nurturing my trust and belief in a relationship.'
Rory popped the question in October 2022 at the Cliveden Hotel in Berkshire, after decking the room in flowers and going down on one knee. Being awarded an MBE in 2022 for her services to charitable causes and vulnerable women meant the star was able to tie the knot at St Paul's.

Comedian Reginald D Hunter appears in court over social media posts
Comedian Reginald D Hunter has appeared in court over alleged antisemitic social media posts. The 56-year-old US stand-up is accused of three counts of sending an offensive communication on three different occasions – on August 24, September 10 and September 11 last year – to Heidi Bachram on X, formerly Twitter. He spoke to confirm his personal details when he appeared at London's Westminster Magistrates' Court on Monday for the private prosecution, which is being brought by the Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) charity. It is alleged Hunter sent a computer-generated sexual image to Ms Bachram in August last year, with the charges claiming it was 'grossly offensive'. No indication of plea was given and Hunter was bailed to return for a hearing at the same court on November 14. Deputy district judge Louise Balmain told him: 'There is going to be an initial legal argument as to whether the case should proceed and that will take place on November 14.' The judge told Hunter to attend that hearing as he will learn if the case goes ahead and whether he will have to enter a plea. Hunter, whose address was given as care of Kalber Struckley solicitors, was released on unconditional bail. Hunter regularly tours the UK and has appeared on comedy panel shows Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Have I Got News For You and 8 Out Of 10 Cats. In an Instagram post published last week, Hunter said the CAA is 'dragging me to court for jokes online'. Hunter also declared he is 'fighting a private prosecution for my comedy' in a crowdfunding appeal launched to help cover legal fees. A total of £19,836 towards a £50,000 target had been pledged by the time he made his first appearance in court on Monday. The crowdfunder, aimed at raising money towards specialist counsel and any appeals procedures and court fees, states: 'Born in Georgia in 1969, Reginald has been a force in UK comedy since 1992. 'Known for his biting social commentary, he has appeared on Have I Got News For You, 8 Out of 10 Cats and was Perrier-nominated at Edinburgh Festival. 'Reginald challenges audiences on racism, politics, and religion. He is staunchly anti-War and has publicly criticised Israel in the past.' The CAA describes itself as an organisation of volunteers which works to 'expose and counter antisemitism through education and zero-tolerance enforcement of the law'. Stephen Silverman, the group's director of investigations and enforcement, previously said: 'This is one of a number of private prosecutions that we are bringing, and there will be more to say on the case in due course.'
