Geri Halliwell-Horner's special birthday message for her fellow Spice Girl Mel B went viral on Wednesday, after the 51-year-old made a faux surprising faux pas that had fans in stitches.

The flame-haired singer, 51, took to her Instagram account with a sweet series of photos alongside the former Scary Spice. The featured image showed the pair back in their Spice Girls days, the second alongside former Baby Spice, Emma Bunton, and the third, an up-to-date photo of them at a glamorous event.

Whilst Geri's intentions were well-meaning, the caption - which has since been edited- read: "Sent images to Pippa tweak where needed. Happy Birthday @officialmelb! Hope you have an amazing day." Pippa, referring to Geri's PR.

The error was corrected 30 minutes later, giving fans enough time to take to the comments section with their thoughts.
