Geri Halliwell Breaks Cover at F1 Grand Prix, Snubs Mel B's Wedding

Geri Halliwell stepped out at the F1 British Grand Prix on Sunday after snubbing Mel B's wedding over the weekend

SPICE GIRLS SABOTAGE ALERT!

The drama, the tension, and the tea - oh, there's so much of it! Geri Halliwell, one half of the iconic Spice Girls duo, has been caught snubbing her former bandmate Mel B's wedding to Rory McPhee over the weekend. And we're not just talking about a gentle nod or a whispered congratulations; no, Geri was completely MIA from the proceedings.

A LIST OF ABLISGATION?

The Spice Girl, 52, was notably absent as her former bandmate said 'I do' to her fiancé Rory McPhee at St Paul's Cathedral in London in front of a string of very A-list guests

Mel B tied the knot with her beau in an intimate ceremony at St Paul's Cathedral in London, surrounded by A-listers and close friends. And while we're not surprised to see Victoria Beckham (née Posh Spice) sending sweet messages of congratulations on Instagram, there was a notable absence from Geri's end. No posts, no likes, no comments - just crickets.

WHY THE COLD SHOULDER?

Now, we know what you're thinking: "What's going on with these two?" Well, let us fill in the blanks for you. The two women have had a tempestuous relationship over the years, to say the least. Remember when Mel B revealed that she and Geri had an intimate relationship back in the day? Yeah, that was a bombshell moment for Spice Girls fans everywhere.

The race itself was a chaotic one due to the heavy rain, with Lando Norris going onto win his first ever home podium as he sped across the finish line to victory

Geri was reportedly "deeply upset" by the revelation, and sources close to her even claimed that her husband Christian Horner was "mortified" about Mel's claims. But here's the thing: Mel B has never apologized for spilling the tea (pun intended). And now, it seems like Geri is still giving her bandmate the cold shoulder.

THE OTHER SPICE GIRLS GET IN ON THE ACTION

But while Geri was nowhere to be found, the other Spice Girls were quick to congratulate Mel and Rory on their special day. Victoria Beckham shared a sweet throwback photo of herself and Mel from back in the day, captioning it "Congratulations @officialmelb @rorymcphee on your special day! I couldn't be more excited for you both and wish you a lifetime of happiness!"

Mel C was in high spirits as she arrived at Silverstone on Sunday for the race, after missing Spice Girl bandmate Mel's wedding in London the previous day

Emma Bunton, also known as Baby Spice, was the only other Spice Girl to attend the ceremony. We heard she looked gorgeous in a stylish pink dress - we can't wait to see those photos!

THE WEDDING OF THE YEAR

Mel B's wedding was an affair to remember, with celebrities like Heidi Klum, Paloma Faith, and Kerry Katona all in attendance. And let's be real, the ceremony itself was absolutely stunning. Mel looked every inch the blushing bride in her pearl-adorned white gown, while Rory opted for traditional Scottish attire.

THE EX-FIANCE OF MEL B

But what about Stephen Belafonte, Mel B's ex-husband? The drama between them is well-documented, and it seems like their split was a messy one. In 2016, Mel accused him of emotional and physical abuse, which he has always denied.

THE LOVE STORY OF MEL AND RORY

Holly Ramsay commanded attention in a black lace bralette as she arrived at Silverstone with partner Adam Peaty

But now, Mel has found love again with Rory McPhee, her hairdresser-turned-fiancé. And from what we know, their relationship has been a whirlwind romance - who knew that all it took was a few hair treatments to capture someone's heart?

THE TEA SPILLS ON!

So there you have it, folks - the tea on Geri Halliwell and Mel B's complicated history, and how they seem to be taking different paths. But we can't help but wonder: will these two Spice Girls ever put their differences aside and reconcile? Only time (and a healthy dose of gossip) will tell.
