As the Spice Girls got stuck into day one of their tour rehearsals, there was a notable absence.
Scary Spice Mel B swerved the reunion as she was thousands of miles away from London at her home in sunny Los Angeles.
And the singer opted to make the most of the good weather as she posed up in a bikini and heels while her bandmates were put through their paces in a dance studio back home.
43-year-old Mel looked incredibly chilled out as she struck a peace sign in her leopard print bikini which she set off with a glamorous body chain, gold shades and matching heels.
"'Today’s look Leopard print everything #nofliter #getready #whynot," she captioned the snap.
Back in Blighty Geri Horner, Mel C and Emma Bunton all reunited for their first day of rehearsals for their upcoming tour which kicks off in May.
The girls were papped looking ready and raring to go as they made their way into a training room in London on Monday morning.
It's the first time the girls have been together since Mel B claimed she'd had a lesbian fling with Geri at the height of their fame.
Spice Girls reunite for first time since lesbian fling claims - but without Mel B
Last month Mel B told Piers Morgan that all five of the group shared a bed, before claiming she'd had sex with Geri.
Geri denied the claims, saying through her rep: "It has been very disappointing to read about all these rumours again, especially on Mother’s Day of all days.
"She would like you to know that what has been reported recently is simply not true and has been very hurtful to her family."
However, her publicist insisted there's no feud between her and Mel, and that she can't wait to be back with her bandmates for their forthcoming tour.
Mel B may have missed the rehearsals because she lives and works in the US, where she stars on America's Got Talent
