Mel B’s Shocking Revelation
Mel B has shocked Spice Girls fans by claiming that her former bandmate Geri Halliwell has lied about her age for years and is not actually 51 years old.
The Allegations
The singer, 48, explained that Geri, also known by her married name Geri Halliwell-Horner, was protective of her passport anytime the group travelled internationally, so she never saw proof of her bandmate’s date of birth. Mel went on to say that despite Geri’s claims that she recently celebrated her 50th birthday, she has doubts that she was really born in 1972.
The Importance of Embracing Age
Speaking to Olivia Attwood on her podcast So Wrong It’s Right, Mel emphasized that it’s ‘wrong’ to lie about your age and that people should learn to embrace aging wholeheartedly. She stressed the importance of honesty and self-acceptance when it comes to one’s age.
