SPICE Girl Horner is pals with none other than Selling Sunset's Mary Fitzgerald.
The unlikely pair's surprise friendship was revealed when the US star visited the singer in London.
Mary revealed that she was in the UK, and had been "meeting friends".
Taking to Instagram she shared two pictures with Ginger Spice.
One of them was a group shot which included both of the two women's husbands.
The other shot was just of the Netflix star and Geri.
Mary wrote next to the snap: "London is one of my favorite places in the world. It’s brought us so many memories and so many new friends!
"I love selling the Sunset Strip but thinking I can get my license here so I have an excuse to travel."

Her followers couldn't believe she is friends with Geri, with one commenting: "Just casually having a photo with a #spicegirl."
While this one said: "Omg is that a spice girl?!"
Another wrote: "Is that Ginger Spice??"
Mary returned to TV with the brand new series of Selling Sunset.
The hit Netflix reality show dropped last week, and fans have been busy bingeing the lot.
The realtor found fame on the show, which follows her job at the high profile Oppenheim Group.
She has worked for the agency for years and once dated the president of the company, Jason Oppenhiem.
Mary is now happily married to Romain Bonnet, who is also featured in one of the snaps.
TOUGH TIME
Meanwhile, her pal Geri was left devastated last week by the sudden death of her older brother.
Max Halliwell, 54, died in intensive care after suddenly collapsing at home.
At the time Geri was in the Middle East where her Formula One supremo husband Christian was preparing for last weekend’s Qatar Grand Prix when concerns were raised over Max’s welfare.
Friends described Max and Geri as “incredibly close.
Police said Max, who worked for an eco-friendly technology firm, had been taken to Watford General Hospital after being found at his home.
In a statement a Hertfordshire Constabulary spokeswoman said: “Police were called at 9.40am on Wednesday 17 November to report the concern for welfare of a man at a residential property in Berkhamsted.
“Officers, along with the East of England Ambulance Service, attended the scene.
“The man was located and taken to hospital for treatment, where he sadly later died.
“His death is being treated as non-suspicious and will be referred to the coroner.”
'DIFFICULT TIME'
A spokesman for Geri told The Sun said: “As you can imagine this is a difficult time and we would ask that you respect the family’s privacy at this time.”
Max featured during Geri’s 2010 appearance on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories and said of his sister: “Young Geri was always wanting to be the centre of attention.

“I think Geri doted heavily on her father. Maybe because of the attention that my father gave her as regards to her potential.
“He obviously saw something early on, so I’d call her a bit of a daddy’s girl, definitely.”
