Mel B says admitting to having sex with Geri Horner made rehearsals for the Spice Girls' reunion tour "awkward".
The Wannabe hitmaker claimed to have had a "one time" fling with Geri - who is now married to Christian Horner - 20 years ago during a tell-all interview with Piers Morgan on his Life Stories show earlier this year.
And she's now said that although she ran the story past Geri beforehand, news of the alleged romp still made things slightly tense between the girls when it came to rehearsing for their recent string of reunion shows.
Mel said: "I texted her on the night I did the Piers Morgan show and explained what he'd said and how I'd answered and she was fine with it. The problem was it then got hyped up into a much bigger story, and it didn't help that we were just about to begin rehearsals.
