Victoria Beckham has wished Geri Halliwell a happy 50th birthday

Alongside a throwback image of herself and Geri in their heyday, Victoria wrote on Instagram: "Happy birthday @therealgerihalliwell! Hope you have the best day!! Kisses!" (sic)

Meanwhile, Victoria - who eventually turned her back on music in favour of a career in fashion design - was not the only Spice Girl to acknowledge Geri publicly, with Emma sharing a throwback photo of herself and her "beautiful Spice Sister" on the set of 'Spiceworld: The Movie' in 1997, while Melanie C called her fellow pop star the "most wonderful collaborator, band mate, and friend."

Mel B appeared to be the only Spice Girl to have not publicly wished Geri a happy birthday.

Geri - who made a shock exit from the band in 1998 and went on to have a successful solo career with chart-toppers such as 'Mi Chico Latino' and 'It's Raining Men' but reunited with the Spice Girls for tours in 2007 and 2019 - acknowledged her big day with an Instagram Reel filled with iconic moments from her career and teased fans that "the best is yet to come."

She captioned the post: "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."(sic)
