Sporty Spice has fuelled speculation that a full Spice Girls reunion could be on the cards for 2026, marking three decades since the release of their ground-breaking debut album, Spice.
Optimism and Preciousness Over a Potential Tour
Speaking to Good Morning America, Mel C confirmed the group is actively discussing a return to the stage. "I remain optimistic," she stated, highlighting the pride the group feels in their enduring legacy and their appeal to new generations of fans. She expressed a clear desire to "get back on stage with the girls" for the milestone anniversary.
However, the singer also admitted that the iconic girl group is being highly selective about any plans. While they are exploring what opportunities exist, Mel C revealed they are feeling "precious" about their legacy. "The thing that stops us is we feel so precious about it, we want to make sure it's the right thing and agree on the right thing," she explained, ensuring any reunion would be a fitting celebration for their fans.
Mel B is the Last to Know
In a humorous revelation, Mel C shared that one member is being deliberately kept out of the loop regarding any potential reunion plans: Mel B. The reason? Scary Spice's inability to keep a secret.
During an appearance on the podcast No Filter with Kate Langbroek, Mel C joked, "We've decided now we're not going to tell Mel anything because she can't keep her mouth shut." She added a warning to fans, "So don't listen to Mel B because she doesn't know, because we're not telling her." This would be the first tour featuring all five members since their performance at the 2012 London Olympic Games closing ceremony.
Rumours Fueled by Posh Spice
The latest comments from Mel C follow a major hint from another band member back in September 2025. Victoria Beckham set tongues wagging when she posted a clip from a past Spice Girls concert on social media, captioning it with the single, tantalising word: "Tempting," and tagging her fellow bandmates. This post sent fans into a frenzy and significantly amplified rumours of a 2026 get-together.
The Spice Girls' last tour took place in 2019 as a four-piece, without Victoria Beckham. The demand for a full reunion has remained incredibly high, making a potential 2026 tour one of the most anticipated events in pop music.
