Over the last year or so there have been plenty of rumours that the Spice Girls will reunite, with the full line-up of Mel B, Melanie C, Emma Bunton, Geri Horner (née Halliwell) and Victoria Beckham. The rumours have included a Glastonbury performance, a tour and even new music.

Now, over last weekend, as Victoria Beckham celebrated her 50th birthday, husband David has taken to Instagram to share an iconic moment as all five sang along to their 1998 hit 'Stop', dancing with the memorable moves.

David posted the video on Instagram writing: 'I mean come on x @victoriabeckham @melaniecmusic @officialmelb @emmaleebunton @gerihalliwellhorner 💚💛🧡💜💙🩵🩷🤍'.

More than a million likes later, and thousands of comments, fans have been calling out for more, and if Mel B's hint is anything to go by, perhaps there is a tour being planned.

Is there going to be a Spice Girls tour?

It's been a long time since all five members of the Spice Girls went on tour together, but after they reunited at Victoria's exclusive party, held at Oswald’s, a private members’ club in London, and David posted the video, Mel B reposted it on her Instagram Story, with the words: 'About last night #tourdatescommingsoon'. (sic) 👀

And while it might not be confirmed, Mel B has certainly been trying her hardest to get the girls back together to celebrate their 30th anniversary. Mel told us in an interview that she aims to get the girls back in the studio this year.

She explained: "Sometimes, if you say things enough times, it's actually going to happen, but apart from that I just get really excited. So, if I want to say it, I'm just going to say it, even though, I've had the kibosh put on me!"

Mel B continued: "My aim is to get us back in the studio," and after stumbling over her words a few times, she said: "That would be nice!"

Earlier this month, a series of murals appeared outside Wembley. Along with Melanie C, Emma, Mel B and Geri, there was a painting of Harry Styles, from behind. Although nothing was confirmed at the time, Mel B shared a pic of it captioning it: 'Wembley?? I’ll say no more 👀🤫😅.'

While we all hope that the group will reunite for a tour or new music, this isn't the first time they have reunited for a birthday bash. Back in 2022, Melanie C, Emma and Victoria joined Geri to celebrate her 50th, and there was a nod to Mel B who wasn't able to make the occasion as it had been re-arranged.

Take a look at the Spice Girls through the years:
