Inside Mel B and Victoria Beckham feud as Posh Spice swerves Scary's wedding

Despite insisting "Friendship never ends" in their 2007 track, Headlines, theSpice Girls haven't always been the best of pals. They are all said to have fallen out with one another at some point during their star-studded careers, which, some would argue, is to be expected after living out of a suitcase and sharing hotel rooms around the world during their rise to fame.

However, some of the feuds are said to have got particularly spicy, including the decades-long skirmish between Victoria Beckham and Mel B. Victoria will not be at the artist formerly known as Scary Spice's wedding this weekend, due to 'long-standing commitments abroad', which means she 'simply can’t attend'.

The fashion icon and Geri Halliwell are both missing from the guest list for the ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral, where Mel will marry fiancé Rory McPhee in a star-studded event.

So, as Victoria skips off abroad, swerving Mel's big day, here's an inside look at all the times the former bandmates haven't seen eye to eye, starting when Posh was said to be horrified when she spotted Scary's former lover pooing on the beach...

How Mel B's feud with Victoria Beckham began

Mel B and Victoria Beckham first fell out while on holiday with the rest of the Spice Girls back in 1995, according to Mel.

After Posh Spice clocked Scary's then lover pooing on a shell-strewn beach in Hawaii - and then rinse himself off in the sea- the women's relationship has, reportedly, never been the same.

Revealed in Mel’s first memoir, To Catch A Fire, the singer said the Spice Girls had gone on holiday to strengthen their bond.

During the jaunt, Mel met a guy and quickly began a holiday romance. She writes: “I ended going off with Nalu for nights on end ­sleeping rough under the stars or in his little car. A proper holiday romance.”

But when Victoria saw Mel's beau pooing on a tourist beach during their break in Hawaii, things went south.

Outraged Posh reportedly told Mel: “Doesn’t he know what a toilet is? It’s disgusting.”

Mel B 'fuming' after Victoria snubs Spice Girls reunion

After reuniting in 2007 and releasing Headlines, which only limped into the charts at Number 20, the Spice Girls cut their subsequent tour short.

However, in 2019, they announced their plans to hit the road again – only this time not everyone was onboard. Victoria, who was then firmly focused on her fashion career refused to join the lineup, much to the reported annoyance of her bandmates.

At the time a source said to be close to the band claimed there was a fierce falling-out between the four remaining Spice Girls and Victoria and their former manager, Simon Fuller, reports the Mail.

It reportedly ended in Mel B sending a furious text to Victoria after she pulled out of the tour, after apparently saying she was definitely keen.

Fuelling the feud rumours further after turning down the chance to tour again with the Spice Girls, Victoria was said to have seriously irked Scary after posing in Spice-inspired outfits for her Vogue shoot earlier the same year.

A source, who claimed Mel spiralled into a "foul-mouthed rage", claimed at the time: "The girls are furious with Victoria for initially agreeing to reunite, at one stage she even threatened to go legal if the girls cashed in on the brand minus her."

Mel then upped the ante when she dressed up as Victoria for a Halloween party, holding a savage sign, which read: "I am NOT going on tour."

Wearing a paper mask of Victoria's face, standing next to her partner for the evening, Gary Madatyan, who was dressed up like David Beckham, Mel made sure all eyes were on her for supermodel Heidi Klum's annual extravaganza in 2018.

However, Victoria was said to be furious after the stunt, with sources claiming she was angry at Mel for making her look like the bad guy...

Victoria furious with Mel for making her look like a 'killjoy'

Following the failed reunion, reports claimed that Victoria 'never agreed' to reunite for a comeback, and was frustrated with Mel for making out she is the 'killjoy' of the group.

Insisting she never signed up to go on the time-consuming tours, a source said: "Victoria was always up for a catch-up and the prospect of a celebration of the band's work. But going out on the road for concerts was never something she agreed to."
