Girl power is forever — "Viva Forever," as all but one of the Spice Girls recently reunited to sing their 1998 hit single.
In a new video shared by Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham's son, Cruz, the 20-year-old strums on the guitar while members Mel C, Emma Bunton, and Geri Halliwell join his mother for an acoustic rendition of their *Spiceworld* album cut. The song was initially released during the period surrounding Halliwell's exit from the iconic girl group in 1998.**
"I think i found my openers… you think they have potential? Something exciting coming later today ;) Keep an eye out and get involved," Cruz wrote alongside the video, hinting at his own upcoming tour.
The only original Spice Girls member not present in the clip is Mel B, also known as Scary Spice. When reached for comment, her representative told **, "Melanie has literally just got back to her home in Yorkshire from her honeymoon and a 13-hour flight from Mauritius."
Cruz shared the reunion video amid highly publicized Beckham family drama. Earlier this month, his brother Brooklyn Beckham slammed their family — including their father, David Beckham — in a lengthy social media tirade.
"I have been silent for years and have made every effort to keep these matters private," Brooklyn wrote, adding, "I do not want to reconcile with my family," referring to their feud.
Brooklyn made several claims about his parents and brothers in a series of Instagram Story posts, calling out their alleged behavior at his and his wife Nicola Pelta's 2022 wedding ceremony.**

"My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn't stopped," he said, claiming that his mother danced inappropriately with him at the reception and that she also backed out of making his wife's wedding dress at the last minute before the wedding.
EW previously reached out to representatives for David and Victoria Beckham, as well as their sons Cruz and Romeo James, for comment.
Cruz's post captures the latest Spice Girls reunion, following their 2007 world tour and another globe-spanning concert series in 2019, though Posh Spice didn't participate in the latter.

"One of the girls actually said to me, and it did upset me not too long ago actually — it was Melanie B who said to me — 'Don't forget where you've come from,'" Posh said in her recent Netflix docuseries, addressing her dynamic with Mel B during the initial reunion tour. "I have never forgotten where I've come from. I have never, ever forgotten that Posh Spice is the reason that I'm sitting here now. She might have been grumpy, but she was actually great."
She added that it was good to celebrate the Spice Girls during the reunion tour, but she realized she "didn't belong on stage."
"It had been fun," she said, "but it wasn't what I loved anymore."
