THE planned Spice Girls reunion has reportedly been 'axed' after Geri Horner allegedly 'pulled the plug' on a potential tour.

This comes amid rumours of a fresh feud with Mel B, 49, after her bandmate posted a 'jibe' on her birthday.

The Spice Girls had reportedly been in discussions about a fresh set of gig dates.

Rumours suggested the band had even made contact with Victoria Beckham, 50, - who was not a part of the 2019 Spice World Tour - for a potential cameo appearance.

But an insider has told Mail Online that, following an alleged rift once again developing between Mel B and Geri, 51, the pop star turned children's book author is said to have walked away from any future projects completely.

A source told : "Geri has had enough to deal with after all the drama with her husband's relationship with his assistant - it has been a tough enough time - and she's just lost patience with Mel and her little digs and jibes.

"She's walked away and without Geri it's really not going to happen - in the past she's been a driving force in the group, but she doesn't want to deal with Mel at all at the moment let alone share a stage with her."

The Sun has contacted a rep for Geri for comment.

The duo used to be close, and Mel even hinted that the duo previously engaged in a casual brief fling together in their heyday.

However, a fresh spat has apparently driven a wedge between the members of the girlband.

Mel recently made a fresh swipe at her former friend and colleague online.

She took to Instagram to wish her bandmate a "Happy 75th Birthday", as she posted a string of old photographs, which some fans thought may have been unflattering.

They also thought this might have been a reference to accusations that Geri had previously lied about her true age.

But a source told the outlet that there has been even more tension between the members of the band behind the scenes.

The insider added  'They've always had a tricky relationship but this has got very messy now and nobody has been able to smooth things over between them - so it's all off again."

This comes after The Sun reported that Geri and Mel had a frosty reunion at Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday bash.

The pair were to have kept their distance at Oswald’s private members’ club in Mayfair, central ­London.

A source told us: "Mel tried to smooth things over with Geri at the party but it didn’t go as planned.

"She was laughing it all off but Geri didn’t seem interested in hearing what she had to say and wandered off.

"When it came to taking their group picture, Geri kept as far away from Mel as possible which was awkward to watch.
