Spice Girls star Mel B has claimed she once had sex with group mate Geri Halliwell.
“She’s going to hate me for this because she’s all posh in her country house and her husband, but it’s a fact,” Mel B said, in an interview with Piers Morgan. “It just happened and we just giggled at it and that was it.
“We were best friends. It just happened.”
Mel B, whose real name is Melanie Brown, said the two hooked up “just that once.”
She explained that she didn’t mention the tryst in her memoir Brutally Honest “because that wasn’t what my book was about.” Mel B added that she hopes Halliwell, who has been married to Christian Horner since 2015, won’t be upset by the revelation.
“Hopefully when Geri gets asked that, which hopefully she will after this, she won’t deny it,” said Mel B. “Because it was just a fun thing.”
In a 2010 interview with Morgan, Halliwell called Mel B “gorgeous” and said “she has great boobs” and “an amazing bottom.” According to the Daily Mail, Halliwell previously told Howard Stern about a romp she had with a famous woman.
“I don’t mind boobs but the other bit is not my cup of tea, I didn’t like the lesbian thing,” she said. “It is part of experimenting. I was drunk at the time.
The Spice Girls are due to launch their reunion tour on May 24 in Dublin.
