The Spice Girls are discussing reuniting for a second time, reports suggest.

Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Melanie Brown enjoyed a meal together in London last week and were allegedly in contact with Victoria Beckham throughout the whole evening.

Speaking to television show This Morning, Geri Halliwell said: “We are friends first and foremost. Obviously a career and music evolved through that friendship I think. Whatever happens afterwards is a bonus.

“We always talk about creative plans. Right – now, I’ll be honest, we are gathering information about a possibility, but I don’t like to… when you are evolving a plan, you don’t want to share it with the world.”

The girls split in 1998 after Geri left the group to go solo but reunited in 2007 for a world tour.
