Victoria’s husband David Beckham posted a video of his wife, known as Posh Spice, singing with former bandmates Geri Halliwell-Horner (Ginger Spice), Emma Bunton (Baby Spice), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty Spice) and Melanie Brown (Scary Spice) .

As they sang and performed their iconic choreography, the England football star looked on happily.

“I mean, come on,” he captioned the video.

Victoria also posted the video to her social media, writing: “Best night ever! Happy birthday to me! I love you all so much!”

The party is said to have taken place at Oswald’s private club in Mayfair, attended by celebrities including Tom Cruise, Selma Hayek and Gordon Ramsay.

Others photographed outside the venue included Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Marc Anthony, the godfather of Posh and Beck’s son Cruz, and Eva Longoria, their daughter Harper’s godmother.

Ahead of the celebration, Victoria posted on Instagram that she felt “so incredibly blessed to have reached this milestone” and added that she was grateful for her husband David’s “unconditional love and support.”

On April 17, the day of her birthday, Victoria received messages online from David, her children, Brooklyn, Cruz and Romeo, as well as her old bandmates.

“Happy birthday to my beautiful wife… As you head into this birthday make sure you look back and be proud of what you have achieved, achieved and what you have built, Posh Spice, businesswoman and of course married to an English captain 😂,” Beckham captioned one Facebook post.

“But your greatest success is your children, you guide them, love them and teach them… They love you beyond words, we all love you so much x Have a special day, you deserve it all.”

The Spice Girls reunited in 2012 for the closing ceremony of the Summer Olympics in London and in 2019 for a world tour that Victoria did not attend.

The girl group’s debut single Wannabe was released in 1996.

After two years at the top of the charts, Horner shocked the world when she left in 1998, citing “differences between us”.

In December 2000, the rest of the group went their separate ways and announced an indefinite hiatus.

In 2023, Victoria’s life with David was explored in a four-part Netflix documentary series, which also featured his fame as a footballer and speculation that he may have had an affair while playing for Real Madrid in 2003.

It was recently announced that Harper Collins will publish a story about the couple titled The House Of Beckham: Money, Sex And Power, written by former BBC Panorama reporter Tom Bower.
