Scary Spice, who recently announced that she is expecting her third child, posted a message on her Twitter page thanking the rest of the Spice Girls for their support – but failed to mention Posh, who is also pregnant.
The Peep Show star, 35, tweeted: “Ahh big thanks to my Spice Girls Mel C, Geri and Emma for all the baby well wishes! Love you! Xxxxx.”
The omission of Victoria’s name appears to suggest that she has not contacted Mel to congratulate her on her first child with husband Stephen Belafonte.
According to recent reports, the band are said to be at loggerheads after Victoria allegedly refused to allow previously recorded material to be released, over fears that it could damage her burgeoning fashion career.
Talking about her pregnancy, the Mel B: It’s A Scary World star, who is due to give birth this summer, said: 'We're really excited about it and ready for it.'
The LA-based singer already has two daughters – Phoenix, 12, with Dutch dancer Jimmy Gulzar, and Angel Iris, three, with Hollywood star Eddie Murphy.
