Victoria Beckham is noticeably missing from the Spice Girls lineup for their upcoming world tour. Spice Girls Mel B, Mel C, Geri Horner, and Emma Bunton are reuniting and planning a global tour without Victoria, a surprising development given the group’s past pleas for Posh to rejoin them.
According to insiders close to the group, the remaining members have set aside their differences to reunite. They have rehired Simon Fuller, their former manager, and this is reportedly the key obstacle to Victoria rejoining the band. The singer and her husband David Beckham’s relationship with Fuller deteriorated to the point where they terminated their contracts with his XIX Entertainment in 2018. “The Spice Girls working with Fuller means that there is absolutely no way that Victoria will be involved at all,” a source told the Daily Mail. “It feels rather bizarre that they would beg Victoria for years and years to join them and now they have him on board, they don’t approach her. Maybe they thought there would be no point, as the Beckhams and Fuller no longer have a relationship, it’s over,” the insider explained. Another source indicated that the group returned to Fuller because they struggled to find another manager due to the demanding nature of the job, made significantly more challenging by their internal conflicts. “They have spent months trying to find a new manager but the job is a nightmare, particularly because of the turbulent friendship between Mel B and Geri,” the source revealed. “Now they have found their way back to Fuller and it all feels very dire. You can’t help but think that this is all going to end in tears,” they added. “While the band need a manager, what this does mean is there is zero chance that Victoria will be involved. Clearly, they know that too so they didn’t even bother asking her now they are back with Fuller,” the first source further stated. Victoria Beckham last reunited with the Spice Girls for the 2012 Olympics Closing Ceremony.
