Last week it was revealed that Geri was “being supported” by all The Spice Girls, just days before it was reported that she was “leaning” on bandmate Victoria Beckham for support.

However it has now been pointed out that Geri, who is standing by her husband despite the claims, unfollowed Victoria, husband David and their son Brooklyn.

A source told MailOnline: “There have been hundreds of fall outs between Geri and Mel B over the years, not least when Mel let slip that she and Geri had slept together a few years ago.

“Geri has never had a problem with the Beckhams.

“You get different accounts of what is going on from different people but the bottom line is that she seems to be taking Christian’s problems very hard.

“All of the girls have reached out to her but she’s not felt able to engage with them.

“She is devastated and it’s possible that she feels that the Beckhams could have given her – and Christian – more public support.”

Geri has since then followed Victoria and David back on the social media platform.

It had previously been reported that Geri had been getting support from Victoria.

A source told OK! at the time: “They always got on well and have been there for each other through the difficult times.

“When Geri was having a bit of a stormy relationship with some of the other Spice Girls, Victoria supported her and helped her through.

“It’s the same now – Victoria wants to support Geri any way she can.”

Geri also briefly unfollowed F1 driver Max Verstappen on Instagram amid Christian’s ‘sexting’ claims.

According to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, Geri’s husband has been accused of “inappropriate behaviour”.

He was initially only under investigation over alleged controlling behaviour at work, but now it’s come out a further allegation has emerged that he sent her “sexually suggestive” texts.

In response to the allegations, Christian said: “I completely deny these claims.”

Geri has reportedly been in floods of tears over the claims, but is standing by her husband.

A source close to her has said: “Geri has been in floods of tears all weekend while looking after her kids.

“She is insisting Christian has done nothing wrong.”

Geri and Christian have been married since 2015.
