David Beckham has quashed rumours of a potential Spice Girls reunion. The 49-year-old former football star dismissed growing speculation that the iconic Nineties girl group, which included his wife Victoria Beckham famously known as Posh Spice, were set to reunite for another tour.

This follows their surprise performance at Victoria's 50th birthday party back in April. When asked by Variety about the possibility of them hitting the stage together once again, David said: "Unfortunately, that's not happening." Referring to the impromptu Spice Girls' gig at Victoria's birthday celebration, he added: "Victoria was so pleased to see the girls, and it was a massive part of her life, the girls, but obviously, all the girls have got their own things going on."

Commenting on the viral clip sparking hopes of a comeback tour among fans, Beckham said: "I know it's what people want, but in all honesty, I think I was the most excited of anyone." Expressing his awe at seeing "all of the girls in one room" again, he said: "All of the girls haven't been on a stage together for over 15 years.
