The Spice Girls reunited to perform ‘Viva Forever’ in a video shared by Cruz Beckham on Thursday (5 February).
The clip shows Cruz playing acoustic guitar as Victoria, Melanie C, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton sing along to the track inside the Beckham’s Holland Park home. Mel B, however, does not appear in the video.
In the caption accompanying the post, the budding singer joked, “i think i found my openers… you think they have potential? something exciting coming later today 😉 keep an eye out and get involved.”
In 2019, the Spice Girls toured the UK as a four-piece, with Victoria Beckham opting not to participate
Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel is also visible in the clip, beaming as the camera pans to her at the end.
Cruz is currently preparing for a series of upcoming live concerts across the UK and Europe, marking his first headline run of shows. The dates follow the release of his recent singles ‘Optics’ and ‘Lick The Toad’.
The Spice Girls have reunited publicly on a number of occasions since officially disbanding. All five members last performed together at the London 2012 Olympic Games closing ceremony. In 2019, the group toured the UK as a four-piece, with Victoria opting not to participate.
Since then, the band have appeared together informally at private events, including family celebrations, with footage occasionally shared on social media.
The Spice Girls mark their 30th anniversary in 2026
The renewed attention comes as the Spice Girls mark their 30th anniversary in 2026. While members have acknowledged discussions about marking the milestone, no official plans for a full reunion or tour have been announced.
Mel B’s absence follows her missing Emma’s 50th birthday celebration just last month.
A spokesperson for the singer clarified that she and her husband, Rory McPhee, were out of the country on a delayed honeymoon.
Despite not being there in person, she sent Emma a bouquet of baby pink roses and shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram.
