The Spice Girl had previously told Piers Morgan that she and Geri had hooked up back in the old days.
However, Geri – who is married to Red Bull Racing Formula 1 boss Christian Horner and mum to son Monty, two, and daughter Bluebell, 12, – denied anything happened between her and Mel.

And now, a source has claimed Mel is “totally perplexed by Geri’s denials”.
The insider told The Mirror: “Mel is totally perplexed by Geri’s denials. Mel feels Geri is making her out to be a liar. She said, ‘It’s almost as if she is trying to erase our history.’
“There is a lot of bad blood simmering away. It’s [the Spice Girls tour] going to be interesting.”
Yesterday, Geri posted a video of herself re-learning the dance moves to Spice Girls hit Spice Up Your Life ahead of the tour.
However, sources say the girls are “dreading” coming together for rehearsals later this month.
