News has it that the iconic girl band, Spice Girls will be reuniting for a TV special and compilation album next year.

According to the Independent, Mel C has reportedly been working quietly with the band’s former boss Simon Fuller over the past few months to bring Victoria Beckham, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Horner back for the one-off special, with a compilation record.

An insider said: “The five of them have been locked in secret talks since the summer, and finally they are all on-board for a 2018 reunion.

“And getting Victoria to agree has been a coup for everyone involved, given she has always been the person holding back on a reunion.”

The insider, a former aide who is now working with the girls again, went on: “Things between them were quite icy at the start of the year. But gradually the ice thawed and Mel C was the one who drove that. Mel’s divorce battle also helped to bring them back together, as did the birth of Geri’s son.”

However, she added that “Plans at the moment are still in the early stages, and everything involving the girls tends to be complicated because they are so busy.”

The five singers last appeared together at the London 2012 Olympics closing ceremony, where they played the songs “Wannabe” and “Spice Up Your Life.”
