Mel B put on a loved up display with her fiance Rory McPhee in a new post on Saturday and wished they could do their holiday all over again The picture comes just days after hopes of a Spice Girls reunion were dashed amid a feud between Mel and her bandmate Geri Halliwell (L-R Melanie C, Geri, Victoira Beckham, Emma Bunton and Mel B) She also shared the post to her Instagram Story, where she added a heart emoji.
Mel - who was previously married to Jimmy Gultzar and Stephen Belafonte and has Phoenix, 2,, Angel, 17, and Madison, 12, - made the post just days after Geri Horner pulled the plug on plans for a new Spice Girls reunion tour. The group, also made up of Melanie C and Emma Bunton , had been in discussions about another run of dates and had even made contact with Victoria Beckham about a possible cameo appearance - with the band excited about replicating the success of their last shows. But insiders say a bitter rift between Geri and Mel B- who were once so close they allegedly engaged in a fleeting romance - has now driven a wedge between the group and Geri has now walked away entirely.

'She's walked away and without Geri it's really not going to happen - in the past she's been a driving force in the group, but she doesn't want to deal with Mel at all at the moment let alone share a stage with her.' Last week saw Mel make fresh jibes at her former friend by wishing her a 'Happy 75th Birthday' online alongside a series of unflattering photographs from their heyday, seemingly a reference to her previous jibes that Geri had lied about her age in the past.
