Mel C and Emma Bunton ‘desperately try to make peace between Geri Halliwell and Mel B’ after lesbian sex bombshell threatens Spice Girls tour
Mel made the revelation to Piers Morgan... but Geri has denied it
PEACEMAKERS Mel C and Emma Bunton are desperate to smooth things between Geri Horner and Mel B, with Geri refusing to be in the same room as her bandmate.
The Spice Girls tour has been thrown into turmoil after Mel B, 43, revealed she had a lesbian fling with Geri, 46, in the 90s.
According to magazine, Emma, 43, and Mel C, 45, are desperately trying to salvage the band's up-coming tour following Mel B's sex bombshell.
A source told the magazine: "The gigs are going ahead no matter what, but all the girls are prepared for more epic rows.
"At the moment Geri doesn't even want to be in the same room as Mel B. There's no way more worldwide dates will be added."
On Sunday, Geri issued a statement denying the liaison and had found the claims "very hurtful" - but Mel B has since slammed Geri for "making her out to be a liar".
Mel B dropped the revelation during an interview on Piers Morgan's Life Stories - with a shocked Mel C looking on in the audience.
Scary Spice reportedly called Geri straight after the interview to smooth things over, but after Piers played the clip on Good Morning Britain, Geri was no longer cool with it.
According to the source, Geri felt as though "she had been thrown under a bus by a friend" and the band are totally on Geri's side.
