Although Victoria Beckham was a vision in a mint green dress of her own design, her nagging foot injury forces her to remain on crutches

AS one of the chosen few who attended Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday bash, you’d think Mel B would have been discreet in her choice of words.

But in typical scary fashion, Mel has put her leopard print foot in it, by making a dig at Victoria’s age.

Writing on social media, the 48-year-old shared details of her eventful weekend with her 1.6 million followers.

She wrote: “Been epic, Victoria Beckham 60th birthday yesterday to meeting my competition winners at @roryjameshair spa day to you @emmaleebunton and @jadejones who made my night/long weekend complete.”

Clearly, this is a faux pas, as it was actually Victoria’s 50th birthday party. It’s not the first time she has stirred up the Spice Girl sisterhood on the subject of age. Last month, she exposed fellow band member Geri Horner for consistently lying about her age.

 

In a recent appearance on the Olivia Attwood podcast, Victoria Beckham disclosed an amusing anecdote about her former Spice Girls bandmate Geri Halliwell. She revealed that during their time traveling the world at the height of their fame, Geri would guard her passport closely to prevent others from discovering her true age. Victoria jokingly remarked that despite their extensive travels together, she still remains unaware of Geri’s actual age. Geri recently claimed to have celebrated her 50th birthday, but Victoria expressed skepticism, teasing that she doesn’t believe her.

The Spice Girls came together for Victoria’s exclusive birthday celebration over the weekend at the Oswalds private members club in Mayfair, situated conveniently close to her flagship Dover Street store. Amidst the festivities, the Spice Women delighted guests with a performance of their hit song “Stop,” which was captured on camera by Victoria’s husband, David Beckham.

Writing on his social media beneath the video clip, the former Manchester United and England Midfielder said:

“I mean come on x@victoriabeckham, @melaniecmusic @officialmelb, @emmaleebunton @gerihalliwellhorner,” accompanied by colourful heart emojis.

Indeed Mel, who keeps dropping hints that the girls are set to reunite for some gigs ahead of their 30th anniversary, teased her followers further by saying: “Tour dates coming soon.”

Fashion guru Victoria, also shared the clip writing, “best night ever” Happy Birthday to me, I love you all so much.”

She also seemed delighted to be back together with The Spice Girls, writing on social media, after the event she said:

“The best gift to be reunited. Thanks to all my friends and family for celebrating with me.”

As well as the fashion designer’s close friends and family, including her four children, some Hollywood power players were also present, including Tom Cruise, actress Salma Hayak and Victoria’s close friend, the actress Eva Longoria.

David Beckham’s best friend and sports agent, Dave Gardner was also present, posting snaps of him and his mates grabbing a kebab at the end of the night.

 

Despite her ongoing foot injury, Victoria declared it “the best night ever” as she was carried out of the swanky Mayfair private members’ club Oswald’s by her husband David at 2:30 am.

Earlier in the evening, her foot injury required her to rely on crutches for her glamorous entrance. However, as the night came to a close, David was there to provide a piggyback ride, ensuring the celebration ended on a high note.
