Rumours have been ricocheting around the gossip world for months now about what the Spice Girls are up to – and despite the fact Victoria Beckham has shot down claims they’re planning a tour, fans are still keen to know what they actually have cooking. Well, here’s a theory for you: they’re literally playing the royal wedding, which could be the most British event since Jack the Ripper terrorised Whitechapel.
And we haven’t just pulled that one out of our arse, either. In an interview with US talk show The View, Mel B may or may not have violated approximately five hundred signed NDAs when she confirmed she was invited to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s wedding, before descending into a panicky mess when asked whether the Spice Girls would be performing the reception.

“I’m going,” she said, after Loni Love asked if she knew anyone going.
“I don’t know if I should have said anything,” she quickly counters, before confirming that every single Spice Girl landed themselves a wedding invite. Which would be interesting if they were not performing, given the fact they’re not exactly all best pals with the bride and groom.
“Will the Spice Girls be performing?” Love asks. Rather than answer, Mel just looks down at the floor while the entire cast of hosts screams themselves into a coma.
“I’m going to go. I’m going to be fired,” Mel says.
Of course, this is absolutely not an official confirmation that this is happening. Though it would be an extraordinarily camp reimagining of the royal wedding tradition – and as such we support it – this can’t be taken as gospel.
But it’s a pretty solid piece of evidence nonetheless. Why else would all five Spice Girls cop an invite? It’s absolutely awkward to invite only part of a friendship group to your wedding, but you get a pass for that when you’re a member of the Royal Family. Curiouser and curiouser folks.
