Marking the first time that they had all been photographed together since 2012, Bunton said it was “great to catch up with my girls”, adding that “the future is looking spicy.”

Meanwhile, Beckham wrote alongside the photo: “Love my girls!!! So many kisses!!! X Exciting x #friendshipneverends #girlpower” while Horner said “Lovely seeing the girls #girlpower is alive and well”.

Posh, Scary, Ginger, Sporty and Baby were tipped to reunite for a number of possible projects including the release of a new compilation album focusing on their greatest hits, various endorsement deals, a new television talent show and TV projects in China.

According to The Sunhowever, the reunion does not appear to include any tour dates.

An insider told the publication:

“Victoria and Geri agreed it would be impossible to be part of a  fully-fledged tour because of family and business commitments.

“Now that she’s a top designer Victoria is concerned about singing but she wants to make money to pump back into her business.”
