Victoria Beckham set to 'rejoin' Spice Girls with announcement imminent

Victoria Beckham is involved in top-secret plans to reunite with the Spice Girls, her bandmate Melanie Brown has teased.

The fashion designer last appeared alongside the group in 2012 during the closing ceremony of the London Olympics and ruled out returning to her former job.

In 2019, the group reunited for a stadium tour across the UK and Ireland, without Victoria who revealed she was backing her friends but had no intentions of singing again.

However, it's believed that the group will be releasing a statement very soon and Victoria is part of their grand plans, according to Leeds-born Melanie.

"My theory is that if I say it enough, it will happen," the For Once In My Life hitmaker said, before adding: "But actually we are planning on releasing a statement.

She went on to tell The Sun: "We're just finishing off perfecting what we're going to be doing together, all five of us, but it's going to be something that the fans are really going to love.

"Obviously she's got a bunch of kids so it's just about finding the right time and we've managed to do that so there should be an announcement pretty soon."

But sources have since told the Mirror that a statement may take a while as the group are still in talks and any news could take a while to be shared.

Melanie went on to explain that the five-piece who dominated the charts have a group WhatsApp conversation and are "always in contact".

Last year, Victoria dressed Melanie and her mum Andrea as she received her MBE from Prince Williams during an investiture ceremony at Buckingham Palace.

But Victoria is believed to be keen to perform at Glastonbury with her Wannabe bandmates.

However, the group consisting of Victoria, Melanie, Geri Horner, Emma Bunton and Melanie C have not been asked to perform at the famous festival.

Speaking on Keith Lemon's podcast, Emma explained: "'I hope so! Can I be real? No one's asked us! I read it as well this week saying 'Oh we've asked them, we're quite far down!'

"All of us have been on the phone like... no one's asked us!"

She went on to reveal that the group had no idea where the rumour came from but was "hoping" that somebody would reach out.

Emma added: "I don't know, I think it would be fab and I have spoken to Victoria about it too and I think she'd be up for Glasto."
