“You know me by now,” Mel B said on 2Day FM today, quickly hosing down talk of an Australian summer tour. “I always say the Spice Girls are going to continue and tour the whole world." She also said, while her bandmates Gerie Horner (Ginger Spice),  Melanie Chisholm (Sporty Spice) and Emma Bunton (Baby Spice) were "not on board fully yet" with playing shows in Australia, "I will make sure it actually does happen."

At the close of their final London show at the weekend, Horner also told the crowd she needed "to say something I should have said a long time ago" and apologised for leaving the band in the late 1990s. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry I left. I was just being a brat," she said." It is so good to be back with the girls that I love."

Horner, who released her debut solo album in 1999, also thanked the Wembley crowd for supporting the group on their much anticipated reunion tour this year. Original Spice Girls member Victoria Beckham (Posh Spice) did not join the tour.

"So we're done. It's done," Horner said. "Thirteen stadiums, almost 700,000 people with three amazing women I've shared that stage with.

"I want to say thank you to Melanie, Melanie and Emma and everybody who showed up for us. It has been something that I will never, ever forget. Thank you so much. Big love from the Spice World."
